Stump Cross Caverns named finalist in family business awards

Lisa Bowerman, AKA 'Cavewoman', at Stump Cross Caverns.

Stump Cross Caverns has been named a finalist in the Yorkshire, Humberside and North East Family Business Awards 2026.

The attraction is now appealing for public votes as it competes for a People’s Choice Award.

The Bowerman family has been welcoming visitors underground since 2003 and is hoping those who have enjoyed the caves and activities will show their support.

A spokesperson for Stump Cross Caverns team said:

“We’re thrilled to be recognised alongside so many fantastic family businesses across Yorkshire & Humberside.”

The team is encouraging anyone who has visited the attraction, taken part in an activity or met its staff to get behind the campaign.

They added:

“Explored our caves? Tried one of our activities? Had a chat with our friendly team? If you’ve enjoyed a visit, please vote for us.

“It only takes a minute and it would mean the world to our family and our team.”

The awards celebrate family-run businesses of all sizes and across a range of sectors in Yorkshire, Humberside and the North East.

Votes can be cast through the Stump Cross Caverns finalist page on the awards website.
