About
An exciting 'Crystal maze' style puzzle solving activity suitable for families, kids and adult groups. Now with both an indoor Escape Room and an outdoor 'Low Ropes Escape', you can give escaping a go in rain or shine! . The indoor Escape Room is themed around the beautiful St. Davids area – prepare to be met by sea creatures, fishing rods and treasure chests! You'll have to work together solving puzzles and games, finding keys and codes and unlocking padlocks in order to escape within the hour! . The low-ropes escape course is the first of its kind! Instead of unlocking doors, you’ll be releasing drawbridges, planks and tyres that allow access to new parts of the course. The obstacles are suitable for all ages and abilities; it’s the puzzles that are the real test!
Duration: < 1 hour

    Brilliant family fun, especially for a rainy day
    Really enjoyed the Escape room. 3 of us (including two older teenagers) did the difficult challenge. All indoors, tests brain power and lateral thinking as you work your way through the clues. Ben the owner was very helpful without telling us the answers. Would definitely recommend for families, small groups
    Thanks so much for this! It was great meeting you guys last week - loved the enthusiasm and really glad you found the puzzles so interesting! Thankyou for your feedback on giving clues too, it's always a balance to try and give some guidance without too much information so glad you thought i managed it! Ben

    Entertaining and memorable experience
    We booked this session as something to pass the time on a dull, wet day. The escape room is a short drive out of St Davids in a lovely rural location. It honestly looked like a collection of farm buildings in the middle of nowhere with a wooden escape room sign - this sort of added to the fun! The host came out to meet us, showed us into the first room and explained how it all worked. We were then left to get on with it. The puzzles were well thought out, interesting and a bit different to previous experiences. There were opportunities to work on separate things and then bring the knowledge together to advance through the rooms. Our mix of adults and 12 - 16 year olds all found ways to contribute and we all felt involved. The hour passed in a flash as we were so engrossed in what we were doing. We plan to return in the summer to have a go at the outside one.
    Wow, thankyou so much for taking the time to write this! I always wonder what people think when they turn up to a farm in the middle of nowhere - I like to think that it adds to the atmosphere so it's nice to hear that you thought so. I'm really glad you enjoyed the puzzles so much too and found them a bit different to others - I have tried not to take part in too many escape rooms myself so that the puzzles are a little more original. Hopefully you can make it back in the summer to try the outdoor one, I think it's quite a different challenge so will be cool to see what you think! All the best, Ben

    Great Escape Room
    A little bit off the beaten track, this Escape Room was brilliant. We thoroughly enjoyed it and would highly recommend. There are different levels of difficulty on offer and the right amount of hints if you need them.
    Haha I love the first line of this - it definitely is off the beaten track! Glad you made it here and enjoyed the escape. Thanks so much for recommending it here! Ben

    Great activity for a rainy day!
    During a wet, rainy day on our weekend in Pembrokeshire, we weren’t sure on what to do as most activities are outdoors and beach based. We happened to come across advertisement for this escape room on our wanders around St David’s the day before, so decided to have a go. It was safe to say, we weren’t sure whether we were in the right place when approaching the escape room - the surrounding area really adds to the mystery of the game. Ben was lovely and welcoming, making the experience even more enjoyable. He was available to support/give clues over a radio, and the best thing about it was that he made it himself! I love how the escape room involves the history of the area, so it is educational as well as entertaining. We finished at 1 hour and 4 minutes - attached is a picture of the leaderboard if you were intrigued how long it took other people. Many thanks to Ben for providing us with the amazing experience, we had an amazing time. I highly recommend this escape room to anyone looking for a fun activity to kill an hour!
    Wow what a great read - thanks so much! I love your description of getting here, mentioning the mysterious entry. It's always so entertaining to watch people arrive, especially when people arrive late on! Your comments about the escape though are so appreciated... I'm really glad that you enjoyed the theme and that I was able to bring a little something to your experience. Despite it having been 6 years, I still get so much enjoyment out of seeing those lightbulb moments when people solve something! Thanks again, hopefully see you again for another year! Ben

    Great escape room fun!
    Decided to visit after a rainy few days in St David’s and it was a perfect hour of fun! Ben was incredibly warm and welcoming and made the experience even more enjoyable. So much fun and great escape room. Would definitely recommend
    Thanks so much for taking the time to write this, it's so appreciated! I'm glad I could bring a little something to the experience though you seemed to be enthusiastic enough to make it enjoyable whatever! Thanks for recommending it though, it makes such a difference! All the best, Ben

    Lots of good, clever puzzles
    Our family enjoyed this escape room. There were lots of interesting puzzles, our youngest enjoyed solving them as much as the eldest. There were some clever physical puzzles to do, which tested our communication, teamwork and dexterity too! Would recommend this to anyone who is new to escape rooms as you can choose the difficulty level.
    Thankyou for such a lovely review, particularly for mentioning the puzzles. Every year I get a little nervous over whether they will be up to the previous year's standard so it's always so reassuring when people say they were clever and fun! Thanks again :) Ben

    St David's Escapes!
    We did the Low Ropes escape room. Our guide was so kind and new exactly when to help. The escape room was incredibly well thought through and just the right level of difficulty. The instructor made us feel so included and made sure we could speak up. We would highly recommend. From Emily, Molly and Eleanor
    Hi Eleanor, thanks so much for this! I'll be sure to pass this on to Johannes who ran the session - he's so great and getting everyone involved and giving clues just when you need them. I'm glad you agree! Hope to see you again at some point :) Ben

    Outdoor escape adventure - great fun!
    We are a family of 2 adults and 2 teenagers who have completed a few escape rooms but we decided to try the outdoor escape room for a different challenge. We booked the difficult level - which was just right for us. We were greeted by Johannes, who was friendly and clear with his instructions. The course involved puzzles, physical challenges and teamwork which we thoroughly enjoyed. We highly recommend this and hope to come back to complete the indoor escape room!
    Hey guys, thanks so much for taking the time to write this! I always love it when people go for the hard level - it can be a bit of challenge for me to find puzzles that test groups like yourselves but are still logical enough to solve. I'm glad you think I succeeded! I'll definitely pass on your kind words to Johannes aswell, i know he appreciates it so much! Hopefully see you for the indoor one next time :) All the best, Ben

    Outdoor experience
    Our first outdoor escape room experience, really enjoyed. Angharad was a fantastic games master. Nothing like we have done before and good value for money too. A great mash up of escape room, low ropes and puzzles
    Thankyou for leaving such a lovely review! It is Angharad's first year running the low ropes escape so she'll really appreciate your kind feedback :) I'm so glad you enjoyed the slightly different style of escape room - it's encouraging to know that people appreciate something a bit new! Thanks again, Ben

    A great escape!
    We had a really fun time doing this. After an initial chat with Ben on the phone to gauge experience and to book a time slot, we turned up on the day, dog in tow. Ben was really enthusiastic, gave us a quick briefing, and off we went; the puzzles were pitched just right for teens and adults, and there was enough variety for everyone to be involved and feel challenged but not daunted. Thoroughly recommended, everyone left on a high.
    Hi Angus, thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a great review! It's great to know that you felt the puzzles were pitched at the right level - it takes quite a lot of testing but you never know if it's quite right so reassuring to know that you thought it was right! Love the sentence at the end there too - can't get better than that! Thanks again :) Ben

We almost did it
This was our first time in an escape room. It was lots of fun and very clever.
We were just three clues short of getting out.
Chloe was super nice with a few helpful hints along the way.
We were doing the easy version.
It blew our minds to learn looking at the 'Leader board' that two 10-year-olds had done the medium level in 34 minutes.
Highly recommended .

Great fun. We were complete novices but managed to escape within the time limit helped by the occasional hint from Ben.
Highly recommended, especially for a rainy day, of which Wales has its far share

Ingenious outdoor escape room, making clever use of the wooded area - it was very satisfying to crack the the puzzles and codes to make your way around the course. We were a group of 8 adults and teenagers, who all got fully involved while our two dogs ran around. Highly recommended for something a bit different to do on your Pembrokeshire holiday!

We had so much fun at both of the St Davids escape rooms! They're both excellent rooms - a wide variety of puzzles and challenges sure to please everybody in the group - young or old, new or experienced. The low-ropes room was really innovative and beautiful (it's in a forest), and the indoor room has brilliantly designed puzzles and ties in nicely to the local area, and has different difficulties to suit any group. I've done 60+ rooms and these stand out as being great experiences; I'd very much recommend either (or ideally both!) - good luck 😊

Wow, thankyou so much for this Andrew. I appreciate all the reviews I receive, of course, but it's always humbling to receive feedback like this from someone who has done so many before. It's lovely to hear that you think it suitable for so many different ages and abilities - that was exactly my aim when I was designing the courses and levels of difficulty and it's great when you see families with all ages being able to get involved! I really appreciate your feedback on the puzzles too - nice to know that there were a few things you hadn't seen before! Thanks once again for taking the time to write this, Ben

This escape room is not actually a room,but an outside adventure in the trees.The course combines skill,agility and your brain in an awesome mix of padlocks,pictures,movable planks,log stumps and ropes.The staff working with you are greatly accommodating and able to adapt quickly in different scenarios,in our case someone in a wheelchair could participate and play along with us and the mysteries of the puzzles!The staff are also very nice and happy to answer questions when needed.The course(and the people who made it)are well thought out and complex;possible but a nice type of tough.Our host went through a lot of effort to get the course ready for us after the group before us.This place is brilliant and recommended to all who like a challenge and want great service.

Hello, thankyou so much for such a detailed review of the low ropes escape! I really appreciate your description of the puzzles and the variation of skills they require - it's exactly what I hope for when I design it so great to know that it works! I will also pass your kind words onto Johannes who was running the session for you - I know he enjoys including everyone in the puzzles and he'll love to know that you appreciated that.

A great escape room with a nice range of challenges that can be adapted for different teams. We did this with a 9 and 12 re old who had only done one other escape room and they were able to get involved with lots of the puzzles. The owner, Ben, was really friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!
