The best escape room we’ve ever entered! The set was incredible and the puzzles kept us busy to the last minute.
If you’re thinking of booking — don’t think, just book! Joe was incredible, both times.

01736 691049 · Open 10am–10pm, 7 days
A five- to ten-minute walk from Penzance bus and train stations, with parking nearby. There are no toilets in the rooms themselves — the gallery upstairs and several spots on New Street are all about a minute away.
Who runs it? This venue began as part of Eureka Escape, once the biggest escape room business in Cornwall. When the Eureka sites went their separate ways, a local entrepreneur took it on under a new local company, Escape Rooms Cornwall Ltd, set up in May 2023. Our games are original, story-led rooms, most of them set right here in Cornwall.
