Very nice Easter egg hunt with the kids. They all got an Easter egg at the end of the trail and the shell covered walls were really impressive.

Fantastic

Very interesting and fasinating small folly. A number of tunnels connecting to small chambers, especially when being unlit so remember to take a torch. Kids will love the visit, and the friends of the Grotto will explain its history.

Nothing special

A hidden gem- check opening times as it's run by volunteers, but it's well with a visit to see the intricate decorations and impressive amounts of work that went into it.

Really sweet and interesting. A quirky series of underground chambers whose walls are decorated with shells and flints. A torch is absolutely necessary. The grotto is set in the lower part of a small, steep sided wooded garden. An octagonal summer house sits in the top part of the garden .Although, initially, it took me less than ten minutes to go round, the children had great fun playing hide-and-seek and we were there for more than half-an-hour in the end. The parking is a little bit limited and, since it is in a residential area, there is nothing much else around but certainly worth a wee visit.

Sono rimasto abbastanza impressionato dalla mia visita a Scott's Grotto. Un posto magico incastonato all'interno della periferia di Ware ma a pochi passi dal centro storico. Bellissimi i muri interni tutti decorati da pietra pomice e conchiglie marine. Il personale volontario è stato gentile e disponibile subito all'ingresso a dare delucidazioni sul luogo. All'interno c'è molto fresco e i muri sono bagnati dalla condensa. Vengono messe a disposizione delle torce per camminare tra i vari tunnel che collegano le stanze. Il giardino e la Summer house sono anche interessanti. Peccato che durante gli anni le dimensioni del giardino si siano ridotte per costruire nuove case. Potrebbe essere valorizzato di più. Infatti attualmente viene aperto solo un giorno alla settimana da una società di volontariato. Il parcheggio è libero su strada.

What a super place!
Was on a trip to Hertford when this popped up as a place of interest and we dropped in. What a super surprise in the middle of a housing area. Wonderful volunteer staff too who were fonts of information about not only the grotto but the area too. We loved our little journey into this forgotton subterranium gem. It's not big, and it's not flashy, but it is interesting and unique and at £1 donation to enter, one of the cheapest places of interest I have ever been to. Simply loved it!

Well worth spending a short time in this subterranean building. Well described by the guide. Take a torch.

Pretty interesting place. The volunteers who run it really know the history and show passion in its telling. Bit of an odd thing to someone to build but worth a walk round if you're in the area. If you have claustrophobia, I wouldn't recommend as the tunnels are small and you only have a torch to guide you until you hit the larger rooms. There's also a summer house to look at. It takes 5-10 minutes to walk around it.

If it had not been for trip advisor I would not have known about Scott's Grotto.
It's signposted from outside the college on the road between Amwell and Hertford.
The Grotto is only open on Saturday and bank Holiday Monday afternoons so parking is not a problem as you can park on the streets in the surrounding area however I would imagine during the week you would struggle to find a parking space.
There are stewards in the grotto and summer house who are available to answer any questions.
I would definitley recommend you bring a torch although the stewards do have torches if you don't have one.
The grotto is separated into different rooms and all are decorated with sea shells, pieces of flint and other rocks.
It's a very magical place and would recommend it to anyone who loves something a little different!
