Avast, me hearties - there's an adventure to be had in Whitley Bay in the form of thrilling pirate-themed challenges which have earned rave reviews on Tripadvisor.
Pirate Escape Rooms on Park View has been hailed as "brilliant", "exciting" and a "great fun day out" by hundreds of visitors, making it a must if you're looking for fun family days out over half term. The only venue of its kind in the coastal town, these escape rooms challenge guests to complete a series of quests against the clock to find their way out of their themed room, which will be full of clues to uncover.
The escape rooms are a family affair, run by Angela and Paul Simms along with the help of their sons and daughters-in-law: Daniel and his wife Waiyee, Robert and wife Edwina - whose shared love of gaming has taken them all over the world - and Andrew, who specialises in the electronics side of the magic. The family first set up their unique escape rooms almost nine years ago, and the business has gone from strength to strength ever since - even managing to survive Covid lockdowns and having their roof ripped off by Storm Arwen.
