Best for families with children aged 10+ and teen groups looking for a challenge-based activity or birthday party venue. The room designs are elaborate and the puzzles genuinely challenging — hosts at Annabelle and Emily's standard make the difference between frustration and fun.

“Me and my partner played the Feline Fiasco room and had an incredibly fun time. Visually, the room is absolutely stunning- clearly a lot of hard work was put into decorating it. We got stumped a couple of times on what to do next but our hosts, Annabelle and Emily, were incredibly helpful and always gave us a handy hint. Overall, we had a fantastic time and will be going back the first chance we get to try the other rooms! Would very strongly recommend.”

“Operation Escape were a brilliant choice for my daughter's 13th birthday party, her and her friends really enjoyed the whole experience! Our hosts Annabelle and Emily were amazing! And made it really fun for them. They loved the goodie bags, especially the team photo, that was a fantastic extra. Very easy to book online, and communication with the organisers was brilliant too! An excellent choice for an older kids party.”

“Myself, my mum and teen tried curse of curawoods and had the best time. We completed it in 45mins with a little help, it was a great challenge and a really creative use of space. The props sounds colours, one of the best escape rooms we have done. We will be back to try a different room and bought a game for home too. The team photo at the end was a nice touch too. Lovely staff, highly recommend.”
