Spooky fun! - So much fun! Really spooky, got some great photos and the escape room was a good challenge. Wrap up warm though the cells are chilly- but this does add to the experience and is fixed by a hot choc at the cafe ☕️

Escaping the Hole - Quite an intimidating building but what friendly and knowedgable staff. I opted to do one of the Escape Rooms "The Hole", which was well outside of my comfort zone on account of having to enter the darkened cell blind-folded and handcuffed but soon set about the escape solving the sequential puzzles and made it out with just 30-seconds to spare. The escape was followed by a self-guided tour of the prison complex which was quite informative and in some places quite scarey when some of the tales of the place were described. I will definitely be back.

Great experience - The hole was a great experience and James the prison guard was excellent! The hole is a more intense experience than some escape rooms (dark and at times claustrophobic) but we really enjoyed it. We will be back to attempt to escape “the cell”

Great day!!! - Our guard James had us in stitches. Really enjoyed our experience and loved looking round the prison after. We only just escaped which had us all working and thinking hard. Great day out and would love to come back if still open.

Informative and interesting - Our guide Jason was excellent, kept all of us entertained, young and old alike and took the time to answer every question. Obviously really enjoyed his role and happy to share a wealth of information. Still more to see and hope we have the opportunity to return.
