In the video caption, the TikToker said: "This trail takes you on an epic adventure into one of the lake districts most beautiful spots .. cathedral cave. This otherworldly cave is famous for it's heavenly light that spills down into the cave from a huge opening above.

"This spot can be viewed from from the opening or from the bottom. I recommend seeing it from the bottom first to get the real sense of wonder. Suitable for dogs and kids, this amazing spot is definitely one to add to your list."

However she noted that for those wanting to visit, "Parking isn't the easiest and we ended up having to Google a small car park around a 20 mins walk from this entrance but it was worth it." She noted how the trail "takes you to somewhere you won't forget" and called the middle of the cave a true "hidden gem".

People were loving the video, and one person who had also visited commented: "been there, amazing place ... peaceful beautiful," while a second chimed: "This was on my list when I visited last year but didn't have time for it. More reason to return to the Lakes!" A thid said: "That’s a nice hidden gem indeed."

Also known as Cathedral Quarry, the site was once used to extract green slate. This slate is still used today to build walls and roofs throughout the local area. According to LakeLovers, throughout the nineteenth century, the site provided slate to aid in the boom in house building, drilling the rock and using explosives to source the material.

"In 1929, the quarry was purchased by world-renowned author Beatrix Potter. Beatrix gifted the site to the National Trust, who ensured quarrying continued until the 1950s.

"Nowadays, the site is preserved and maintained by the National Trust as an important place of geological interest and history in the Lake District," the site added.
