Xcape Station

Reviewed By danielgh77 - Eastbourne, United Kingdom

Really good fun. A great mix of challenges in the room, and we needed a few clues at times but it was never too hard that it felt impossible. The room is really well thought out with some clever touches. More importantly it was the game master who made it as he genuinely cares that you're having fun and spots when you might need a nudge in the right direction. Would definitely recommend it.

This is one of my most favourite places in my town. I've been coming here for years for stunning cliff top views and costal walks. On clear days, you can see Dungeness. Beautiful in winter and summer throughout.

Old Roar Gill

Reviewed By teethaddict - London, United Kingdom

We spontaneously decided to visit old roar gill (without reading tips on here) and followed google directions which took us to Penhurst drive which was completely wrong! We ended up going to Alexandra park and they have sign postings for it after you get to the information point and the park cafe. The sign postings get quite scarce so we did get a little lost but just remember you need to get out of the park and cross the main road and re enter the park. Locals are really friendly and happy to help so ask! If you want to access the walk quicker park your car on St Helens road and enter the park through one of the entrances through there. The walk from the park to the beginning of old roar gill is 2km. Then the trek through the woodlands to the waterfalls is about 10 minutes. The treck is so beautiful we went in heavy rain and it was very slippery and muddy and wouldn’t recommend bringing toddlers. The path is very off beaten and buggy’s wouldn’t be possible. After we finished we ended up on the beginning of Ghyllside avenue (door numbers around 1-10) with a street of houses and civilisation! These people are so lucky to have this as practically their back garden! There was lots of water in the falls but it was raining very heavily and I can imagine on sunny/drier days the falls are probably not as spectacular! A great urban water fall and would definitely do it again!
