Went to the winter wonderland
Great atmosphere as you walked in but no signs anywhere to get to market stalls.
Very unorganised and time slots were ignored.

We were incredibly disappointed with our visit to Winter Wonderland. The festive spirit was completely absent, with tacky decorations and poor signage adding to the overall underwhelming experience. The layout was chaotic, and the shops were cramped and uninspiring. Even for children, there was little to enjoy. We left after only 40 minutes, eager to escape the disappointing atmosphere. It’s hard to imagine how much worse it would have been on a good weather day, as many people likely stayed away due to the storm. We live and learn

We thoroughly enjoyed this fascinating tour. Graham, our guide, an ex-prison officer, was informative and entertaining as he told us about the history of the prison, how prison life has changed over the years, and about his own experiences. After the 90 minute tour, we could have stayed longer and explored other areas of the prison, but unfortunately we didn’t have time on this occasion. Highly recommended for an unusual and educational day out in beautiful Shrewsbury.

We had a guided tour of the prison led by Andy, who was extremely warm, welcoming and knowledgeable. It was a very interesting tour and we learned a great deal about the prison system in Georgian, Victorian and modern times, with Andy bringing it all to life for us.
We would have no hesitation in recommending the tour, Andy and all of the staff that we encountered, who were very helpful and friendly.

Good day out. Touring a prison is not the first thing that springs to mind when choosing what to do, but this was both informative and fun. We did the self guide tour and made sure we explored every nook and cranny. Information boards ensured we did not miss out on anything. Took many photo's ..mostly silly ones,...but also a few to remind us that prison life is not as 'cushy' as many think!! ...Will return with family next year, I recommend this as a day well spent👍

Terrible from start to finish , we got there early and had to hang around in a tiny gift shop as our tour didn't actually allow us access to the prison . A lovely lady collected us and took us to whst looked like a disused storeroom covered in red tissue paper where she spent half an hour telling us a ridiculous story . The save santa part was to find 4 jigsaw puzzles in the room ,,luckily there was only my granddaughter and her friend no idea what would have happened had event been full .
My granddaughter and her friend were 10 and fair play to their polite acting skills as even i wanted to laugh at how pathetic it was .
Don't save santa and save your money lol

Good afternoon debsMidlands,

We will be sure to pass along your constructive feedback to the appropriate Events Management, and this will be taken into account for improvements. We will make sure to pass along your praise to your Chief Elf as she ought to be proud.
In the future, if you do reconsider returning for more, perhaps we can interest you in our Self-Guided Tour, as this ticket will allow full access to the attraction.

This was our first ever escape room and it did not disappoint. A great introduction and lots of things to solve. We thoroughly enjoyed it.
We went with family who have done lots of escape rooms and they thought it was one of the better ones they had done too. Do a definite thumbs up all round.

Hi
I am looking to book and escape room. On the website it states that there are a specific amount to seats remaining... if
I am booking this for 2 people does this mean we have to share the room with others?
Kate
Rédigé le 21 août 2023
Good afternoon Kate,
We do apologise for the delay in the response to your question. Our Escape Rooms do have a maximum capacity of 5 per room, however, once you make a booking for that room, even if there are only 2 participants in the room, the room becomes unavailable to anyone looking on the website. This would mean that any amendments will need to be arranged by speaking with us either through email or over the phone.
We hope this helps!

Would we be able to bring a pushchair?
Rédigé le 15 août 2022
Probably not ideal if you want the full experience , narrow stairs to the upper levels of the prison, but still lots to see on the ground floor

Can we pay for parking when we arrive or do we have to reserve a space
Rédigé le 10 juin 2022
Hi Lesley, thanks for the enquiry. We don't have any on-site parking available, however there is a small privately owned car park opposite the prison's entrance - feel free to use that one on arrival. You will need to pay for this car park when arriving on the day, around £5 for 24 hours.

Looking at booking the escape room and there are a choice of cells, are there any differences between them to help me decide?Thanks
Rédigé le 9 avril 2022
Hi Tanya, thanks for your enquiry. We have two distinct types of escape room; The Cell is your typical escape room which is more mentally challenging having you solve riddles/puzzles and grabbing a key to escape. The Hole is more designed for intermediate players, and has the participants solving puzzles in the dark with handcuffs! The latter is more physically challenging but still a lot of fun!
Rédigé le 13 septembre 2022
Hi, we are going to book the escape room for early may, just wanting to know, do we have to book the tour as-well to have a little wander round or will we be able to have a look round after (being included in the admission for the event)
Thanks
Rédigé le 9 avril 2022
Hi Tanya, thank you for your enquiry. When booking the escape room events, you will be given a Self-Guided Tour with this experience. As such you will not need to pay for this on top of the event itself.
Rédigé le 13 septembre 2022
Not really, no.. there is a stair lift but no lift to access the upper floors with a push chair ..

Hi Simon, there is a small pay and display car park directly opposite the Prison. There is also a Station car park a few minutes away.
