An escape room is a real-world, physical game featuring challenges both physically and mentally as well as puzzles to solve within a time limit. Work as a team to escape out of our themed rooms, which are brought to life with special effects, sound and props.

All our room experiences last for 60 minutes, if you have failed to escape within this time a member of staff will let you know and collect you from the room.

The Great Big Escape rooms are designed for players aged 13 and older. Some of our rooms feature darkness and/or loud noises as well as potential scares. Children aged 15 and under are required to be accompanied by a paying adult to partake.
