You probably will have lots of fun here if you had kids. Not so much for adults. Would recommend bringing your family here.

Never visited before so travelling through we stayed overnight on a Friday night. Booked in and told we were free to wander around the most of the grounds and explore. The room was ok. The bed really comfortable and the spa big enough for two. Only issue was we switched the fridge off because it was so noisy. Next morning free entry to the castle. We wandered around checking out the quirky little shops. Had a lot of fun with the axe throwing and watched the very funny ‘magician’ well worth a look.

We visited the park as part of a stay with the onsite accommodation, so not sure in regards to ticket prices however staying on site gives you free access to the park. My kids (8 + 10) had the best time! They already love knights and dragons and we always attend medieval fairs so this was something I already knew they would like and it does feel like a medieval fair more then a theme park. The park is old and dated with uneven paths however the kids don't see this how we do and to them it was magical and wonderful! We watched all 3 shows (11.30, 12,30 +2pm) each show is only 20mins so worth seeing all to get your monies worth! The shops around the site are all rented out to various vendors (like pop up etsy stores) so they really range from great to just a couple of shelves with a few bits on. There is then a main Krysal store at the exit (the young girl in the mushroom cape was so lovely to my son, thank you). Didn't eat on site, brought out own food so can't comment there.

Great fun for the family, especially the kids. Will recommend a stay in the suites as we were able to roam around the park before the other guests came in.

Went to this with my two adult children on a Friday night. Took the form of a “hunt the clues” around the castle, in the dark, while avoiding the zombies lurching around. The goal was to find how to rid the castle of the zombies, of course. It was really good fun! Just a bit scary, detective work not too challenging, and the cast worked hard to make sure we all won out in the end. Not suitable for children, and the nature of the castle (stairs, pavement steps, poor lighting, uneven cobblestones) would preclude anyone with significant mobility disabilities from participating. I scored a 5/5 for the cast and acting and the story, but there were just a few things which could be improved - the audio introduction was of mediocre sound quality. Maybe a better amp and better speakers? And the pre-event “canapés” did not deserve such a dignified title. We got plain old party pies, mini sausage rolls, and a pastry with cheese and spinach. One of each. It was a 5.30pm start and the “ canapés” were not going to be a substitute for a meal. Pack some chocolate bars! And a good torch. I’d do this one again. A great evening. Kim W

I’ve been to Kryal Castle several times for a general visit with the general admission ticket. The focus of this review, however, will be Kryal Castle’s Zombie Night (The Cursed.) My brother and I took our father to it as an early birthday gift because he’s into zombies and fiction fantasy. If you’re into fiction fantasy, whether horror or the supernatural, or simply want to enjoy an adult’s night out that doesn’t involve screens, this is the activity for you. It’s conducted at Kryal Castle in the evenings and the dark foggy night really added to the mood. Participants work in groups to find clues and crack the code in order to lift the evil witch’s curse that has made all of the Castle’s occupants into zombies. Apart from the atmosphere, I loved the combination of the problem solving and hands on experiences involved. It reminded me a little bit of Escape Rooms without being trapped in an actual room. If you enjoy the Escape Room experiences, however, I think you’d enjoy the Zombie Night experience. Other things that I really enjoyed about it were: 1) The cast - actors involved as the survivors in the scenario did a fantastic job and I enjoyed working with Genevieve as part of the yellow team 2) Mingling with team members - whilst one can swap out of teams to be on the same one as their partner or family, I didn’t end up doing so; Dad, my brother and I wound up being on three completely different teams. This didn’t in any way diminish the enjoyment and I had a great time working with the yellow team. The three of us really enjoyed Zombie Night and would highly recommend it to others. We’d also consider doing it again in the future ourselves. A couple of items for others who are considering this activity, which I’d like to share with you: 1) If you’ve got young children and/or babies, make sure you have a reliable baby sitter lined up. I’m pretty sure the minimum age for Zombie Night is 16 maybe even 18. Even if there were no age limits, however, this is NOT the kind of activity to book for children or that you could bring small kids or babies to due to the following: - Depending on which session you go to, it can be a late night especially if you do the one starting at 9:30 PM - The activity involves moving around continuously from place to place within the Castle walls without breaks, in large groups and in the dark. There are no opportunities for kids to sit down and/or engage in free play. - Lack of breaks means this activity is not conducive to stopping to feed and/or change nappies. There are also no childcare or child minding services at the venue. - If you haven’t already been to Kryal Castle, please note: walking areas are covered mostly by uneven cobblestones to give a medieval vibe. An adult moving around in the dark is okay but it could be a nightmare for small kids running around. 2) Make sure you eat something BEFORE the activity. At the start of the night, one can purchase drinks at their own expense in the abbey. Food is VERY limited, however to 1-2 party pies and/or sausage rolls over drinks.

Murder Mystery was fire, Thud was the shining star and I demand he is celebrated for the legend that he is. I can’t remember most of the characters names because I was inebriated on fun whacky drinks, but Helena is a badass and her actor is a sweetheart, and the dude playing the mean king did his job so well that his acting almost made me cry (which is a good thing in this case). He was also a sweetheart, which was a very harsh juxtaposition.The lady in blue who helped lead the game kept absolutely verbally decimating me which I enjoyed, it’s surprisingly fun to be burned by someone from like 700 years ago. Accomodation was as expected, it was nice and clean (though I did freak the hell out because I am dumb and I didn’t realise there was a heated blanket under the sheet.I convinced myself it was some sort of hellcreature). I consumed every free thing there was because I am a hooligan, including but not limited to the complimentary soap I did not realise was a soap and the complimentary shower gel that I knew was soap and ate anyway. It was good, as far as soaps go- which may not seem like a lot, but as someone who eats the soap in every form of accommodation they end up in, it means it’s good. I think. I didn’t use it, I just ate it. I was shocked and delighted to find out that most of the shops were run by freelancers. The blacksmith was insanely talented and very kind when he rejected my begs to be his apprentice. The moon elf was very cool and I was only mildly intimidated, plus she sold subtle Skyrim merch which I am a sucker for. I can’t remember her shops name, but the lady who sold weapons and a singular 700$ tapestry that I need more than oxygen should be paid a million dollars a day simply for being so damn delightful. Griffin should be crowned king. He deserves it. I would like to see tapestries and murals and portraits of the goodboy decorating the halls. Rename the castle Griffin Castle. I am a nerd and a narcissist, so I came dressed up in a tea length layered rococo ballgown. I was surprised to see how well some of the actors integrated it into the setting, especially considering the period was off by a few centuries and they absolutely didn’t have to. Everyone was so charming that I felt like the fairest lady in the land, despite being neither fair or a lady. The staff that weren’t really portraying a character did a fantastic job keeping everything running, and they were also sweethearts. I am beginning to believe sweetheart is a prerequisite to working at Kryal Castle. Tim (I hope that was his name, I was very fixated on his cool pointy hat and was only half listening) is actually the reason I’m writing this review. I spoke to him for a total of 5 minutes while I was leaving after he finished a kid’s birthday party. He made a joke about mentioning him in my review if I wrote one, and I said I would. I have never written a genuine review, but I am many things and a liar is certainly not one of them. He was also the only one to realise my dress had bunnies on it, including every single person at the murder mystery where the only thing you need to do is notice things, and that’s gotta count for something. Tim is funny and good at his job. He deserves good reviews. Tim, if you’re reading this, give me your hat. In summary, go to Kryal Castle, have your Bar Mitzvah AND your Quinceanera at Kryal Castle, get married at Kryal Castle, and vote Griffin for prime minister at the next federal election.

Our family enjoyed our visit. It’s all done in a few hours though and apart from a few shows it does still lack something. A few characters walking around for photo opportunity’s or even a few rides would really enhance the experience especially for those revisiting. For six of us at $100 it was value for money. Puppet show was ok, rabbit show was funny and the horse show with the black knight pretty good. Just needs more

We chose a day that turned out to be so cold. 2-3 degrees but we still had a great time. The entertainment was fun and great. My daughter spent most of the time with the horses. The cafe was great. Reasonably priced and delicious. Expected it to be more expensive after spending the day at Sovereign Hill yesterday. Super friendly and fun staff. Could not fault anything. It was a great day other than the temperature. I was waiting for it to snow.

Worst place I have ever stayed - would give zero if I could. The staff were OK and the Adventure park was good. The room we booked for 1 adult and 2 kids was so small and cramped. No space to hang a coat, no space to put the suitcases, no space in the bathroom to even put your toiletries and the glued towel rack fell on my daughter hurting her. No linen cabinet and no extra linen. There is a microwave, cutlery etc but no space to eat. The walls are paper thin and we were up the whole night because of the people in the adjacent room. Why would you let out a room that is not fit for purpose and charge money for it? This room came up as recommended when I put in the number of people but would have been happy to pay for a better room for better quality. The Wifi didn’t work at all and we were told that there was something wrong with our devices, that’s 4 iPhones, one MS laptop and one iPad, something wrong with all of them...never experienced that before. Absolutely disgusted at being ripped off like this and ruining our day. Have stayed here years ago and enjoyed the experience but won’t be going back. I’m posting this review so that people can be careful about the room they book and want to spare more pain for other families

Went with the family today,was a hot day,but no problems buying drinks,icy poles,and there is a bar also and can order a pizza,got other foods too.enjoyed all the shows very much and the staff are really nice.

Not overly impressed. Wouldn’t return. Staff are pretty ordinary with their service and the place could do with a reno. Knight in armour performance isn’t untill 7pm and only goes for 10-15mins and when there are only very minimal people left in grounds. The whole entry process was pretty slow aswell even with prepaid tickets.

We bought a Groupon deal for 2 nights for the family. All in all, I thought the experience was lovely. It is an old establishment from the 70s so don't expect anything modern. As we are now in covid times, the number of people at the park meant it wasnt overcrowded and you dont have to line up for long to visit the different parts of the castle, do archery, watch shows etc.. Rooms are clean and comfortable and I enjoyed our breakfast that was included in our Groupon deal. You get a $12 voucher per paying person in the room that gets taken off the total bill at breakfast based on what you order so my kids loved the choice of sausages, hash browns, bacon and eggs. There were just some displays in the trader shops that I thought was a bit dark and eerie. No doubt it's done for the atmosphere of the medieval and wizardry times but I found it a bit scary. There are lots other shops that are great to visit, like this elderly gentlement who makes wooden tulips and whistles.

had its faults but pleased we came!!! We stayed overnight here which i wouldnt do again. i paid for expensive room but dont feel i got anything extra. skimpy doona with no cover just put between two sheets. room smelled bad. shower water pressure terrible. it WAS great being able to do the maze and wander when the park was closed, made us feel very privileged. read some reviews in tbe evening and was a bit worried it wasnt going to be a v good day. but its been fantastic. the shows are hilarious, the jousting amazing, the stores hold many great treaures, great coffee, nice breakfast. we had an excellent time, made some new friends and go home with tresured memories.

We were planning to stay two nights glad only booked one. More like 15 minutes out of town with nothing here. Yep it was quiet. Room was large enough and clean, however not a very inviting place overall. Car parking to far away from room, shower pressure useless and water leaked out of door bath mat soaked. Heater extremely noisy and curtain hanging off track.
