The Visitor Centre is now open!
Our opening times are seven days a week from 10am until 5.30pm until the end of October, and then 10am until 4pm from 1st November until the end of February.
We are now open every day apart from Christmas Day!
Please note that coaches need to follow a clockwise route around the valley due to the narrow nature of the road!
Coaches are very welcome to use the Visitor Centre cafe, but it is important that you inform us if you are planning a visit so that delays can be kept to a minimum.
We have seen a large increase in coach numbers in recent years and booking ahead is always advisable to ensure menu availability and faster service.
Please telephone the cafe directly on (01597) 810899, giving as much advance notice as possible.
