THERE HAS BEEN A ROBBERY!
One of Cornwall's largest jewellers has been targeted by thieves, and they have managed to steal numerous items from the shop, worth £1m in total! The robbery took place last week, police are still trying to locate the thieves and their haul, but so far they have no leads.
The criminal masterminds behind the robbery are Tommy & Mickey Carter, or "The Carter Brothers" as they are more commonly known. Tommy, the brains behind the operation, hatched the cunning plan, which appeared to be working... until now! Tommy hired a lodge, on a quiet holiday park in Cornwall, he hid the loot inside and then left the country. The plan was that once the dust had settled, Mickey would check into the lodge, retrieve the loot and then go and join him in sunny Spain.
To be on the safe side, Tommy locked all of the items away and left a series of clues on how to get them. His brother may be excellent at solving puzzles, but he isn't excellent at following instructions - Mickey has only gone and booked into a lodge at the wrong holiday park, in the wrong county (Devon!) and guess what... you've checked into the one with the hidden loot!
Can you solve Tommy's puzzles and find all of the loot before it's time for you to check out?

What a fantastic weekend!
The lodge is refurbished and really stylish with a well equipped kitchen and plenty of space. The holiday park that the lodge is on is huge with lots of different bungalows and chalets plus a main building which has a small shop, gym, pool and a pub (we didn't try any of these, we were too busy, but the Overnight team do offer free passes).
We loved the puzzles - there is a lot to do across the weekend, including bits outdoors, with a mix of linear and non linear puzzles. Some really clever ideas, a great storyline and direct support plus a bit of banter (which was hilarious, if you are up to leaning into the story a bit) available on WhatsApp (of course, there are no cameras in the lodge itself). We managed to collect the full one million pounds! Yay! We were a team of four which felt about right (because we all want to be solving and seeing) but you could easily take along a couple of kids if they are into puzzles too.
I don't know what else to say. Grab some friends, book it, add in some local games, enjoy the scenery and GET THE DOUGH.
(final comment - this is a far nicer experience than Tewkesbuy, in my opinion, which is quite shabby in comparison)
We've played all of Dreadlock's rooms so when we heard they were planning an escape lodge we just had to book. The lodge contained a range of puzzles which could be attempted in your own time, which suited us as we were in Cornwall Mon-Fri and spent a lot of time out exploring and playing other escape rooms. We've played around 100 rooms so didn't find the puzzles too much of a challenge, but there was enough to do to keep us engaged for our visit. The lodge itself is lovely, so makes a great base to explore the local area. This is very family friendly and a unique experience.
A perfect place to stay when on an escape weekend down in Cornwall. We had a blast in the lodge and really enjoyed all of the puzzles presented. The lodge itself was lovely too!
If you're coming to cornwall then Dreadlock and the overnight escape lodge is a must.
You won't be disappointed, family friendly and a beautiful place to stay. You can see in the little details this has had alot of time and effort spent on it. It Kept us entertained all weekend. Thank you 😊
