Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    I had an incredible two-hour ride on Troy in Windsor Great Park with an excellent and friendly guide, Ed. The atmosphere and surroundings is incredible and worth every penny! I’d been wanting to do this ride for a couple years and it was as wonderful as I imagined. The horses are very well-trained and very well cared for. Jenny was a delight and made it so easy to schedule a ride.

    My first escape room was perfect thanks to the combination of a beautifully designed room and my incredible host Aster !!

    This is a basic set up, in a field next to Beale Park just outside Pangbourne, but it was the most fun our teenagers had all week.

    Our Instructor was fantastic, and perfectly struck the balance between informative, fun and relaxed. We shared out session with a couple of other groups, which we felt actually helped enhance the experience because there was some friendly rivalry going on.

    Because no bullets are involved, it is open to children. However, the guns were really heavy so I can't imagine younger children would cope particularly well, but its perfect for teens. And ours started uncertain and left confident and with a sense of achievement.

    I could imagine this would be a fantastic team building activity, or for a daytime activity on a hen or stag do.

    We went on the Saturday and had a great time. The line up was fantastic including the headliners. There were plenty of places to buy food and drink and the drinks were quite reasonably priced for a festival. The queuing system at the main bars helped make sure the queues moved quickly.
    Negatives:
    -A lack of signage from the day car park as this was our first visit
    -We didn't expect the toilets to be great but they were terrible
    -There was a lack of bins and rubbish was everywhere you walked
    None of these things spoiled our visit or enjoyment of the great music on offer.

    The dirty money room is built to a great quality and the puzzles were challenging but understandable. We finished in 57 minutes with 3 amateur escapers so definitely possible for all budding enthusiasts. There is a scoreboard as well for the fastest teams which we didn't make the cut for unfortunately.
    Overall a fun experience that didn't take itself too seriously, I would recommend.

    My kids realy liked the experience here and the staff were all great, especialy with my younger one when he got a bit stressed by the new experience (he is only 8 so just on the lower limit for just a addrenaline pumping experience). But he absolutely loved it and had a blast.

    the reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is because my timeslots were severily delayed and the price is too steep IMHO.

    We went here for a family activity and had great fun. Suitable for all ages - our 11 year old could also get really involved which made it more special. Janos was a great host and ensured we had a fun experience. We escaped with 3 seconds left! A few helpful prompts along the way helped!
    All in all, a fab, fun experience and would definitely recommend.

    My 10 yr old had a brilliant lesson with Chris. He was patient and knowledgeable and the climbs were great. All the staff were lovely and helpful. We’ll be signing up for regular lessons asap.

    Super fun and super friendly staff. Kathryn was amazing.

    First escape room with my partner and it was such a pleasant experience. We will certainly be heading back soon to do another!

    For someone that was having a few worries before going. The day is great value as it lasts all day. The challenge for the value is to keep to the package, which I opted for 750 paint balls. The general cost of paintballs is pricy but this seems to be quite common. If you want enough balls to feel free, expect to spend quite a bit. The staff are very organised and able to answer any questions. Good day had by all

    What an amazing experience! I highly recommend visiting. It's perfect for both adults and teenagers. The staff members were friendly and accommodating. During our session, we played several games, including fighting drones, killing zombies, and engaging in a final round helicopter fight. The opportunity to move around the location added to the fun. In comparison to other VR places I've been to, where movement was limited, this one provided a more immersive experience.

    My daughter had her party at absolutley laser and thoroughly enjoyed it. We had a full hour in the arena for lasertag which is an adequate amount of time and then half an hour in the party room. You have to buy their pizzas as you're not allowed to bring your own food except for nibbles and cake.

    The member of staff giving the safety brief seemed a bit grumpy and fed up. Also we had to keep going to the front desk to request the included drinks (water and squash) as none was forthcoming despite being told they would be brought up.

    Overall very good and would have another party here.

    Love this place. We’ve done all of the escape rooms and enjoyed each one. The newest one ‘Detained’ is awesome. The hints come at exactly the right moment. It’s tough but manageable with two people, I imagine you could complete it faster with more people but still possible in a pair. Don’t think twice, just book and give it a go.
