If you’re looking for something completely different to do with family or friends this summer, let me introduce you to the new REALMS in Crowborough.
Following the huge success of their original VR venue, REALMS has relocated to a much larger premises in Crowborough, creating one of the South East’s most exciting entertainment destinations. Alongside their hugely popular virtual reality escape rooms and games, you’ll now also find state-of-the-art Augmented Reality Darts and a TrackMan Golf Simulator, making it the perfect place for everything from family days out and birthday celebrations to date nights and team-building events.

Four Incredible Experiences
One of the things I love most about REALMS is that it isn’t just one attraction – it’s four completely different experiences under one roof.
Whether you’re aged seven or seventy, there’s something here you’ll enjoy.
Virtual Reality Escape Rooms
This is where REALMS first made its name.
Choose from a huge selection of immersive escape rooms where you’ll work together to solve puzzles, complete missions and escape before time runs out. From pirate adventures and haunted houses to underwater submarines and space stations, every experience transports you into another world.
Our first visit saw us attempting to escape from a submarine, and I still remember how incredibly realistic it felt. We completely forgot we were standing in a room in Crowborough. My daughter adored the Pirates Plague escape room too and wants to return with her friends for her birthday!
VR Games
Perfect for younger players (ages 7+) and anyone who simply wants to jump straight into the action.
There’s everything from laser battles and snowball fights to colourful multiplayer adventures, making it ideal for families looking for something fun and active to do together.
When we visited the new venue, my daughter and son absolutely loved this section. We all played a fantastic game of Arctic Olympics and were completely immersed from start to finish.
The technology is seriously impressive.
Augmented Reality Darts
This was probably my favourite part of the whole visit… although admittedly that may have had something to do with the fact I was actually quite good at it (something I’m not used to)!
Forget traditional darts. Using augmented reality technology, the dartboard comes alive with a huge variety of interactive games while automatically keeping score for you.
It’s fast-paced, competitive and brilliantly addictive – even if you’ve never picked up a dart before.
Perfect for adults, older children, couples and groups of friends.
TrackMan Golf Simulator
Golf fans are going to love this.
REALMS features a professional TrackMan Golf Simulator, allowing you to play hundreds of world-famous golf courses without leaving Crowborough.
Whether you’re a seasoned golfer looking to improve your game or simply fancy having a laugh with friends, the simulator caters for every ability and can accommodate up to four players.
It’s amazing just how realistic it feels.
Perfect for Families, Friends & Celebrations
What I loved most about REALMS is that everyone can choose something they’ll genuinely enjoy. The children couldn’t wait to jump into the VR games, I loved the augmented reality darts, and my husband was straight onto the golf simulator.
There’s also a lovely social space where you can grab a coffee or a drink, chat about the experience you’ve just had and plan what you’ll try next time.
Whether you’re planning a family day out, an afternoon with your teens, birthday celebration, date night or team-building event, the new, larger venue has something for everyone and is well worth the trip from Tunbridge Wells.
