The Manor House Murder; A Murder Mystery Evening

Join us for an evening of murder, mystery and intrigue in this exciting new dinner/theatre experience at Lyveden.

  • Booking essential

At her birthday celebration dinner Lady Grey is found, murdered... But, who bumped her off? Her daughter, May Grey? The local solicitor - Don Kees? The deaf housekeeper Miss Hitts? The gamekeeper Private Acres? And what about the crusty old Scottish physician - Dr Macabre? Only YOU can crack the case and make the arrest!

This evening event will include a hot meal, with a choice of Macaroni cheese with garlic bread and salad (vegetarian), or Mixed bean chilli with rice and nachos (vegan).
