Lakes Escapes

Thinking of something different to do with your family or friends? Why not try escape games? Regardless of whether you make it out or not, participating in an Escape Room will have you thinking about the experience for weeks to come. Your team also has the chance to interact and work towards a common goal. The end effect is bringing everyone together, adding trust and enjoying lots of fun and laughter.

We have done a few escape rooms and we thought we’d pop in during a rainy afternoon. Comparing to others we have done, these rooms are absolutely among the best we’ve done. We did the Frankenstein Monster themed room. It was so well set up, with amazing design and fun puzzles to figure out. Also, gave the right amount of hints and we knew if we needed it, we could ask! We loved it so much we came back to do the Casino room, which was again a brilliant room with great creativity and made us feel very submersed in the experience! Highly recommend!

Bowness Escape Room

"One Hour. One Room. Can you Escape?" The creators of the award winning Lancaster Escape bring you more creations....can your team get out in time?

Reviewed By amberlouisecarey - York, United Kingdom

Wow. What an amazing, hilarious experience this was. My partner and I booked to see how well we would do getting out of the cutting room! We escaped with 15 seconds to spare! Minimal arguments, several screams and lots of laughs. So much effort is put into the games and puzzles by the team. The decor was fab and the whole set up was so good! We really enjoyed our time and I would recommend everyone to visit. Best one we’ve been to. Thanks so much!!

A group of us booked to go into the Total Enigma Asylum room, the whole experience was absolutely brilliant, a good challenge and really good fun, a great start to our night and I can’t wait to go back and try out a different experience. The staff were lovely and friendly and the facilities are well kept and clean. I would definitely recommend, it’s great to have something like this in Carlisle.
