Not All Cardiff Escape Rooms Are in the City Centre…

Looking for escape rooms in Cardiff? Skip the crowds and discover a hidden gem just outside the city.

Not All Cardiff Escape Rooms Are in the City Centre…

If you’re searching for an escape room in Cardiff, your first thought is probably somewhere in the middle of the city - but here’s the thing: some of the best experiences aren’t in town at all!

Travel a little outside the centre, you’ll find Puzzled Escape Rooms – and trust us, it’s well worth the few extra minutes it takes to get here. In fact, we’re often told we’re the hidden gem of South Wales escape rooms, and once you’ve played one of our games, you’ll understand why!


So why head out of the city centre?

Let’s be honest – city centre venues have their place, but sometimes they come with the usual headaches:

1. No nearby parking
2. Big crowds and busy streets
3. Limited availability at peak times
4. Not fully accessible!

We like to do things differently. At Puzzled, we’re not just an escape room – we’re a locally run business with a genuine love for storytelling, clever puzzle design, and creating memorable experiences for everyone who walks through the door.


More space, more personality, more fun

Our venue isn’t squeezed into a shopfront or hidden above a pub – we’ve got purpose-built rooms, each with its own unique world and story to explore. From our award-winning game, AI Apocalypse, to the eerie mystery of our abandoned ship, every escape room has been designed to feel different from anything you’ve done before.

And yes, we’re proud to say our rooms are purpose built - wheelchair accessible, something that’s surprisingly rare in the escape room world!


Getting here is easy, and you can park right outside for free!

We’re based in Taff’s Well, which is just a 10–15 minute drive from Cardiff centre, or few stops on the train.

1. No city traffic
2. No overpriced car parks - we're free!
3. No fuss

Whether you're coming from Cardiff, Caerphilly, Pontypridd, or anywhere in South Wales, we're easy to reach — and when you arrive, you can park for free, right outside our front door.


Highly rated by players (not just us!)

We’re not going to tell you we’re the best – our players already do that.

Check out our reviews on TripAdvisor, Google, and the Morty App, and you’ll see what people are saying:

- Google Review: "Incredible puzzles and storytelling!"
- Trip Advisor Review: "So much better than ones we’ve done in the city centre."
- Morty Review: "Absolutely loved it, real mix of puzzle types. Didn't have to go into town and great options for parking nearby"

And did we mention that one of our rooms recently won a Best of Morty 2024 award? Just saying.


Escape the city. Literally!

So if you're browsing for an adventure escape room in Cardiff, just know that some of the best games aren’t stuck in the middle of the city.
