Welcome to Escape Rooms Cheltenham & Eat Sleep Axe - an independent escape room and axe throwing venue located in Cheltenham town centre.

Escape Rooms Cheltenham

If your family loves puzzles, teamwork and a little bit of chaos under pressure, then Escape Rooms Cheltenham is the perfect rainy day adventure.

Found on Winchcombe Street in Cheltenham town centre, this independent escape room venue throws you straight into exciting themed challenges where you’ll need to crack clues, solve mysteries and work together before the clock runs out.

Unlike some larger chain experiences, Escape Rooms Cheltenham has a fun local feel, with rooms inspired by Gloucestershire stories, legends and locations. Every challenge has been designed in-house by the team, making the experience feel creative, quirky and full of surprises.

Families love the mix of immersive sets, clever puzzles and laugh-out-loud moments as everyone scrambles to piece clues together. Expect plenty of shouting “WAIT, I’VE FOUND SOMETHING!” and children suddenly becoming suspiciously good at solving riddles.

The rooms are designed to be challenging without being impossible, so younger players can still feel involved while adults get fully pulled into the mystery too. It’s a brilliant activity for older children, tweens, teens and family groups looking to do something a bit different together.

And because everything takes place indoors, it’s also one of Cheltenham’s best wet-weather family activities.
