Secrets of Sancreed
A Sancreed House Murder Mystery Weekend
We are delighted to unveil the first in our new series of immersive events: Secrets of Sancreed, our inaugural murder mystery weekend at Sancreed House. Step back in time to 1953, where whispers travel faster than the wind across the moors… and where secrets, deceit, and murder lurk beneath the genteel veneer of country life.
This unique experience places you at the heart of the unfolding drama. Each guest will take on a character connected to the enigmatic Tremayne family, discovering hidden motives, unearthing clues, and shaping the course of the story. This is not an event for spectators—you never quite know where your character’s choices may lead…
When is it Happening
