'Escape Dining' at Borthwick Castle combines the popular trend for escape rooms with the 15th century castle's fascinating history and atmospheric setting. Inspired by its most regal of guests, Mary Queen of Scots, a series of thrilling challenges awaits to be solved while feasting on a shared banquet.
Guests will be divided into teams at the table, competing against each other to solve the most testing of puzzles by candlelight and under the vaulted ceiling of the Great Hall - the very room where Mary, Queen of Scots, was forced to flee from approaching troops by lowering herself through a window, some 450 years ago. The quest? To become the Lord of the Castle.
Headed up by former MasterChef UK winner and National Chef of the Year finalist Derek Johnstone, the award-winning Borthwick Castle kitchen team consistently works with the finest local ingredients to create mouth-watering seasonal menus to suit all palates. The next dining club experiences are set to take place in May, July and November 2020. Visit www.borthwickcastle.com to enquire.
