Try something different - Would highly recommend a visit especially the escape from a prison cell. Very unique experience and with full access to explore the prison for an insight into prison life. Staff were very attentive and added some humour into our visit.

Time to Escape - A great experience, Michelle & Kate are great hosts. The Cell escape room is really good fun and a test of your skills, we eventually managed to escape with a little help from Michelle & Kate - thank you 👍🏼 the self-guided tour of the prison is informative and gives you a glimpse of life behind bars! Great fun, definitely worth a visit

Thank you to Lucy Sutherland - I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Lucy Sutherland and the team for all the effort you put into making my sister’s 30th birthday so memorable at Shrewsbury Prison. The balloons, cake, prosecco, and prison suit hire were all fantastic touches and really helped make the day feel extra unique. We all had such a great time doing the prison escape room. It was brilliant fun from start to finish and something we’ll definitely be talking about for a long time. The prosecco and balloons especially made the experience feel even more thoughtful, and we really appreciated all the hard work and care you put into everything. We would fully recommend the experience to anyone looking for something different and entertaining to celebrate an occasion. Thank you again for helping make the day so enjoyable!

Some minor improvements needed - Bad point *Lack of sign posting around prison. *No description of where the car park was on the car parking pass purchased with tickets. *older lady with short white hair and glasses really REALLY rude in gift shop upon arrival *not enough free time to find own clues and work stuff out *also not clear from start what we have to achieve - it’s clear we need to escape but we needed a few other bits to escape too! * some of puzzles too hard *when first locked you in the cell it wasn’t clear we could start looking for clues Good point * actors were fantastic *use of prison was fantastic *props provided was fantastic. *length of game was really great too. Overall a few minor things lets its down but easily improved!
