Set back from the tree-lined lanes of Kent, the manor house at Chilston Park is a unique property. Over the years, it has been home to MPs, writers, Lords and Viscounts. It even received special mention from the Restoration diarist John Evelyn who
called the house a ‘sweetly watered place’. Today, these traditional comforts have been complemented by some more modern touches – but tonights luxurious meal will be disturbed by murder...

Chilston Park
A Murder Mystery event involves all of your guests as teams of Detectives. They must attempt to solve a deadly who-dun it by answering three simple questions: WHO committed the crime, HOW and WHY? Our events are ideally accompanied by a meal and begin with the audience witnessing scripted scenes featuring events that took place in the run-up to the ghastly crime! Your guests will meet each of the Suspects who join them at their tables to be interrogated.
With forensic evidence and police files you’ll quickly find yourself engaged in an mystery that you’ll be falling over yourself to solve. Each event concludes with a flash-back portrayal of the actual murder taking place and the announcement of the winning team of guests. A perfect mix of competition, pace and light-hearted hilarity. The winners at the end of the evening are the team that correctly solve the crime. An event usually runs at 2 1/2 hours. These events do have strong teambuilding elements however, the emphasis is always on fun and entertainment.
