He said: “There has been some real excitement in Harrogate and I think this is because of the possibility of having something new and different coming to the town. Escape rooms are such a big thing these days and have taken off across the country.

“To hear that the plans have been approved has been fantastic, and I am pleased that we will be the ones bringing this to the town. Hopefully we are going to be up and running by early July, with two rooms on offer.”

Offering a teaser of what will be on offer Mr West said the themed rooms are called Betrayal of Cluetankhamun and Cell Block C. They will have an hour to try and escape solve puzzles in order to escape from locked rooms.
