The Event

All character roles in the murder mysteries are played by a cast of professional actors. Guests’ role during the events is to act as investigators – questioning the suspects, watching the incidents and, perhaps, discovering the bodies. Participants are not required to act, nor to be put into teams. The action will unfold around them and they will have the opportunity to interrogate the suspects. Guests are also encouraged to freely roam the restaurant and to talk to characters as often as they wish. Evidence will be displayed for studying, be careful not to miss anything.

Groupon’s Guide To Torquay

Occupying a convenient coastal location, Torquay allures travellers with a bustling harbour, famous palm trees and yellow sand of the English Riviera.

Visitors can opt for a walk down one the beaches and coves, or make their way down to Torquay harbour to gaze at passing boats whilst enjoying traditional fish and chips. Amateur sleuths may like to investigate the biography of crime writer and Torquay-native Agatha Christie, details of whose life and work may be followed across the “Agatha Christie Mile” tour of informative plaques. Daily boat trips to the seaside towns of Paignton and Brixham or steam rail journeys to Dartmouth will also make for a delightful excursion.

Groupon’s Guide To North Yorkshire

The largest county in England beckons with quaint spa towns, green pastures and hearty dining. In the traditional seaside town of Scarborough tourists may visit a Victorian spa, walk along the harbour, or head to the 3000-year-old ruins of Scarborough Castle for some family photos.

Holidaymakers may also explore the historic spa town of Harrogate, where authentically styled Turkish baths, plunge pools and steam rooms provide quality leisure moments. In York, the largest medieval cathedral in all of Northern Europe may be admired before following the almost five-mile-long circuit of the City Walls.

Groupon’s Guide To Conwy

Crossed by the namesake river, with Snowdonia National Park covering one third of its territory, Conwy County Borough boasts unique attractions to keep globetrotters busy while visiting north Wales. Llandudno, dubbed the Queen of the Welsh Resorts, is the largest Welsh beach destination, beckoning guests with attractions such as the Great Orme and the Little Orme, or the award-winning Llandudno pier.

The flourishing heritage tourism is based on vestiges, including the late 13th-century Conwy Castle and the Elizabethan style Plas Mawr, dating back to the 16th century. Sites such as the Aber Falls in Abergwyngregyn and the Bodnant Garden in Tal-y-Cafn are also well worth a visit, whereas golf aficionados can spend leisurely moments at the Great Orme Family Golf course or at one of the many other courses available in the area.
