Permanently Closed - Join us for a light-hearted Christmassy Whodunnit with completely new escape-room-style puzzles from Pier Pressure and Santa’s elves!! A Christmassy crime has been committed at Preston Manor – one rogue elf has smashed open Mrs Claus’ treasured biscuit tin and run off with all the mince pies! The elf community of the manor is in uproar, so you and your fellow Mince Spy Specialists have been called in to investigate and uncover what happened to restore justice and pastry. Can you solve the festive riddles, follow the merry clues and discover the long-eared perpetrator before time runs out and Christmas is ruined? As you play, enjoy the beautiful manor house, which will be festooned with traditional Christmas decorations. It’s the perfect way to get into the Christmas spirit.

This was a fun way to spend an hour after Christmas to keep the Christmas spirit up. As mentioned by the other reviewer, it was definitely more aimed at families and some of the puzzles were very easy in our opinion but one or two were a bit trickier but more down to execution. The staff were fantastic and we would definitely do it again but maybe not for the hard-core escape room fans.

It was fun but I would say it is more geared towards families and was less challenging than the escape rooms. We had fun nonetheless and the setting was great, we were also really lucky that we were alone in our time slot so didn’t have to work around other teams

Additional details
More than one team can play this game at the same time but there are plenty of different rooms to explore so you will still be able to enjoy your own private experience away from other teams! Up to five teams will be briefed together before setting off to explore the manor and solve puzzles to get clues. Once you have collected all the clues you need, you will have a space to deliberate and make your final deductions. Bring your conclusion to the elf-detective and they will let you know if you got it right. Preston Manor is partly accessible by wheelchair but some of the rooms we use for the game are not, due to stairs. Please let us know in advance if one of your team is a wheelchair user as you will need to arrive early so we can let them in through the accessible entrance to the Manor.
