What to do and see in Nottingham, England: The Best Fun Activities & Games

February 20, 2022 Moriah Teneyck

This town in the very center of England is perhaps best known for its association with the legend of Robin Hood. The men in tights are long gone, though—today, you’ll find a modern city with a fantastic playhouse, ice hockey arena, and many, many shops and clubs.

Had a fab time. Excellent job of ensuring everyone felt “COVID Safe” and the children loved it. Wallace was a excellent host and would thoroughly recommend.

We did the science room, for a birthday treat. Fantastic experience, great to share with family as everyone contributed and we managed to escape with 44 seconds to spare! We are already planning to come back and do the pirate room! Lucy was a fantastic host.

ONE TEAM. ONE ROOM. ONE HOUR. ONE GOAL Can you prove yourself worthy against the ticking clock? Locked in a room filled with puzzles, clues and riddles, you have 60 minutes to work as a team with just one goal... ESCAPE!

Reviewed By Q1300NUlauram - Nottingham, United Kingdom

It felt a bit like a crystal maze experience. The challenge transforms you into another world for a short while and it is exciting whilst you are taking on the challenge in a team, thinking hard and trying to solve the puzzle and mysteries logically. We did the contraption room and it was a great experience ???? Definitely recommend a visit to the Escape Rooms!

Cryptology Nottingham

Are you looking for something to do with friends, family or colleagues? Something other than the generic activities of bowling, cinema, eating or drinking? If you enjoy solving problems, answering riddles and using your brain rather than your brawn: this activity is for you.

Reviewed By Njpackham94 - East Sussex, United Kingdom

I absolutely love this place! The staff are so lovely! We had Sam as our Games Master for both our games... Daylight robbery.... amazing... I love the fact you are in the room for nearly the full hour... you have to steal as much money as you can which are all puzzles to get more loot. Absolutely brilliant idea, absolutely brilliant room, absolutely brilliant! Sam was a brilliant GM and this room was special as it was our 50th room & also the room where I was proposed to. I was completely unaware but Sam was brilliant as I didn't suspect a thing! The room was incredible though and I cannot thank Sam and also Mark enough! Dreamscape was also a great room, very interesting and different which we loved, collecting dream keys along the way in multiple rooms was a great new escape room experience for us! Again another great room. We will 1000% be back to do the other rooms! Absolutely incredible place and staff!

Nott's Maze

Our Maze is great fun for all ages. The Maze changes each summer and there's lots of hidden activities along the way to its centre, ensuring that the whole family has an exciting and challenging day out.

Reviewed By drlyndseyharris - Nottingham, United Kingdom

Fantastic morning out! Great family attraction, staff so friendly and welcoming. The maize maze was brilliant with plenty to look for (anagram solving and riddles). DO Make sure you GET A MAP - definitely not easy and once we had one I enjoyed it even more! The additional craft activities were just great and made the attraction even better. We found the duck hunt at the end and that was a nice touch. Glitter hand tattoos, stories with witch beside a fire pit and crafty things was such a lovely addition. We’ll definitely be back. MAKE SURE YOU WEAR SHOES WITH GRIP - the mud was very very slippy (as expected at this time of year) - didn’t effect our enjoyment.

Escape room venue Games for 2-5 players First game "Prometheus" challenges teams to gain access to a sealed Greek temple and search for hidden treasures inside

Reviewed By roguecolonel - Cotgrave, United Kingdom

One of Nottingham's newer venues, I thought Prometheus was a fun game incorporating a lot of familiar Escape Room tropes in different and fun ways (including a mechanical puzzle I've not seen done anywhere else). Our GM/Host was Thomas who was also the owner who is clearly passionate about his game and has a lot of bold plans for him impressive game space. Highly recommended for both beginners and enthusiasts.
