Had previously done their other room Hypnos at their other location which was amazing, but today I tackled Needlenose with my escape buddy and my boyfriend (we needed him there to keep us safe from the clown), and let me say that out of the over 140 rooms I have done with my escape pal, Needlenose is by far in the top 5 of my most favourite rooms !! I really cannot recommend coming down to Gillingham enough as our game master Chris is lovely and he was very chatty with us as we were talking about other rooms and the struggle of escape games during Covid. When we got into the room, we were instantly in an incredibly immersive set with lots of jumpscares and some amazing and unique puzzles that I have never seen before (which is a rarity now since I am an enthusiast and it's hard to find new puzzles in rooms). Everyone really has to get down and do this room as it's super scary and was still so much fun, I was kept on my toes the whole game, wondering when Needlenose was going to do another jumpscare! Thanks again to Chris for being a super star of a game master, can't wait to come back for your other rooms :)

The Museum tells the story of the Corps of Royal Engineers and how they have helped the British Army live, move and fight for over 300 years. Highlights include 25 Victoria Crosses, Wellington's map of Waterloo, Chard's weapons from the Zulu War, an amazing collection of bridge laying tanks the world’s first useable guided torpedo, a huge piece of the Berlin Wall, a Harrier Jump Jet and a deadly V2 Rocket. The Royal Engineers’ story is one of courage, innovation, skill and endurance which is told through the many galleries, enabling you to follow the evolution of the Sapper from military architects and specialists in siegecraft, to the Army's innovators on everything from diving to surveying, flying to photography and transport to combat engineering. With interactive exhibits, indoor and outdoor play areas, a cafe and gift shop, there is plenty for all the family – tickets valid for a whole year! Please check our website for more details on visiting during the COVID-19 pandemic.

I was taken to the Museum by my Son as a birthday gift. We spent over 2 hours perusing the very interesting exhibits and information, only reaching Word War I. With closing imminent, we had to rush around the rest. It is therefore ideal that the ticket lasts for 12 months, giving us plenty of time to return and complete our tour. Very well laid out and presented in both an interesting and informative manner. Highly recommended for anyone with an interest in our long and varied military history.

We started the day with a shopping trip at Gillingham town centre. The pedestrianised High Street is lined with trees, benches and familiar shops such as Costa Coffee, Game, New Look, Wilko and the Card Factory. There is also a good selection of charity shops, banks and independent retailers. There are several nearby car parks and there are lots of places to eat and drink. After shopping we visited the Riverside County Park located along side the Medway estuary. The Park is 100 hectares with lots of wildlife, cycle paths, walks, picnic areas and a fantastic children's play area. Parking is free and there is a cafe where we enjoyed a cup of coffee and a snack. The views at the park are amazing and I would definitely recommend a visit.

We were in the area after visiting relatives, so fancied,as the weather was fit for walking ,to visit Capstone Farm Country Park. Leave the M2 at Hempstead Valley, which is the local shopping centre for the area, and follow the brown signs to the car park for the country park, parking free,happy days. Walk down towards the playground, and your see a plan of the park map see below my picture,there are various trails to take and uncover, we took the green trail, which first passes the ski centre, which houses a tobaggan run and dry ski slope, see the website for more information. Passing through Drow Hill Wood, you cross and area called event field, you continue down wooded pathways and open field lan see below my pictures, before reaching Millennium Wood another wooded area before reaching the car park and the playground again. Walk down the hill, towards the fishing lake, lakeside cafeteria and toilet facilities and visitor centre. As you wander around the lake, there are plenty of seats to sit,after you walk on the various routes, see by my pictures below, before crossing the bridge back to the car park, as previously mentioned there is the Lakeside Cafeteria, we declined to visit on this occasion but it’s there if you require it. So to Summit up, Capstone may get Extremely busy at Peak times, so go visit the Country Park,go on you know you want to.

A lovely steam vessel with a great history - including a hugely important role at Dunkirk. The volunteers are very enthusiastic and well informed - and putting enormous efforts into restoring the ship as well as involving their visitors in such a special local attraction and its past. Good parking, loos and tour. Very enjoyable.
