We booked the murder mystery escape room for my daughters birthday but had to cancel due to Covid. The owner was very helpful, telling me to re-book when we were ready. Today we escaped! The four of us had a fantastic time. The escape room was challenging enough (we had a fair bit of help from the owner who watches on monitors and offers help when he feels you need it) but not so hard my 13 year old solved some of the problems. We didn't complete the task in the hour but were aloud to carry on and finish. We got a lot of satisfaction when we solved the mystery. Lots of parking and excellent staff. Highly recommended.

An escape room is a physical adventure game in which players solve a series of puzzles and riddles using clues, hints, and strategy to complete the objectives at hand and escape the room.

I left 4 hard-to-please teenagers (mixed group of 15-17 year olds) here to do the Disaster Strikes Escape Room. This was their first experience of any escape room and they loved it! They found the layout challenging and stimulating and had the perfect amount of hints. They are keen to do more now, which is a ringing endorsement, and we will definitely be back to try the House of Evidence. PS Covid safety was excellent here, great attention to hygiene etc

A day out at Fakenham Races lends itself to be one of the top days out in Norfolk for the whole family. With racecourse entry costing from just £10 for an adult and all children under 18 years old coming for free, it is a fun and affordable day outdoors. There are 13 jump race meetings in the fixture card between the months October and June with some of the most popular meetings on New Year's Day, Easter Monday and annual Jarrold Ladies Day in June. Fakenham Racecourse is also home to an all year round caravan site with over 120 pitches, some overlooking the racecourse and others within the racecourse grounds. There are toilet and shower facilities and free WIFI on site. With only 30 minutes drive away from the coast, Fakenham Racecourse caravan site is an ideal location for your caravan holiday away from a busy hustle at the seaside, but with an easy access to award-winning Norfolk beaches.

We stayed here for 3 nights, nice site, we were beside the club house and race course. Loud music from club house Saturday night but only until 11.30 ish. Clean and tidy with grass being cut around you. Very close to town centre 10/15 minutes walk via footpath.

Visited the Megafun play area only with my 5 year old. It all felt very safe with respect to COVID - clean, good one way system, lots of sanitiser and limited numbers. It was so nice for my daughter to get back inside a soft play!

First visit to this lovely cinema. Staff were friendly and made us feel very welcome. The cinema is a real gem. I suspect we will go often. Excellent value for money. As they have sofas in two of the screens I fear that if the film wasn’t very interesting I might nod off as they very extremely comfortable!
