ABOUT Cave escape Discover our story, mission and team.

Welcome to Cave Escape!

Cave Escape is our unique addition to Nottingham's amazing escape room scene. Based within an intriguing site - a sandstone cave system once used as a WWII air raid shelter; we aim to bring you some seriously immersive escape games, jam-packed full of riveting twists and turns, conundrums and puzzles!

In June 2018, we opened our doors with our first room, CARFAX, to rave reviews. Later that year we were thrilled to hear it had won the prized “Golden Key Award” from industry supremo “The Logic Escapes Me.”

Following on from the success of CARFAX, September 2019 saw us launch MONUMENTS, our WWII based art repatriation mission. Having won, “Best In-Person Escape Room 2021” at the international “BULLSEYE AWRDS” hosted by ESCAPETHEROOMers, we are thrilled that it is also proving to be a firm favourite!

HOW does it work?

Your team will be welcomed into our 19th Century Gentlemen's Lounge (Gentlewomen are most graciously welcomed too of course!) where you will be met by one of our team and taken to your briefing area before making your descent, below street level, to your chosen room. Once inside your room you will behold the wonders that await you and... the clock starts. Teams have one hour to work together to solve the room's puzzles and conquer the cryptic tasks that lie ahead of you. Will you make your escape?...Remember, things are not always what they seem!

Will we be given clues?

Our fabulous Games Masters will give your team an informative briefing before you begin. We have clue delivery systems in both of our rooms so we can give you a little hint along the way if you want or need it.
