Ailsa Tully

7.30pm Saturday 7th March 2026.

 

One hundred feet under the Forest floor in an atmospheric candlelit cavern, Ailsa’s intricate melodies weave over brooding basslines. Ailsa Tully creates an ethereal world, rooted in folk with experimental undertones. All of her songs find their origin on the bass guitar. Upon this base she blends her distinctive but tender vocals with dreamy guitars and pop synth lines to craft an unmistakable atmosphere that is both enveloping and meditative.

Ailsa has received support from BBC Radio 1, Amazing Radio and Radio Wales, with features from Clash Magazine, Dummy magazine and a host of other publications. She has performed at Greenman, All Points East and EartH Hackney as well as many other venues and festivals both in the UK and Europe. With a debut album arriving in January 2026, Ailsa will be touring specially curated venues to celebrate the release, Clearwell Caves being one of them!

Deep Level Caving

Dare to Adventure Deeper?

Caving is a physical challenge; you get a bit dirty, but it’s great fun!

Go scrambling, ducking, crawling far beyond the areas open to the public, to discover incredible caverns often last mined centuries ago.

You are led by a highly skilled and experienced guide, in small groups of up to 12 people. Allow around three hours (including kitting up). Please allow more time if you would like to visit the Gift Shop or Lamproom Café afterwards.

Suitable for ages 7+ (under 18s must be accompanied by their parent or legal guardian).

These trips are only run occasionally, depending on guide availability. For more details about our caving trips see our Adventure Deeper page.

If you have a group of people (6 or more) wishing to try caving, we may be able to arrange one for you. Send us an email at info@clearwellcaves.com.

To start the 2026 season we have a Valentine’s Day caving trip suitable for everyone, but especially those adventurous romantics wishing to share an incredible experience.  Commit to the trip and why not commit to each other? Nicky the trip leader will take a digital photo 200ft underground of couples, participants if desired.
