Join the Epic Quest!

Five days and nights of your favorite role-playing game hosted by performers from the renaissance faire on the estate of historic Muncaster Castle.
Each day we have events and excursions full of excitement.  Test your mettle at the Weapons Hall where you’ll fire crossbows, throw axes and train for combat!  Wander the gardens where you may encounter a helpful NPC full of information about your quest! We’ll personally meet the owls of the hawk and owl sanctuary  …and so much more!

Itinerary

Adventure Itinerary

Monday July 14
We will have a shuttle from the Ravenglass train station to Muncaster Castle so we can start our adventure. Hang out in the tavern and play some games  once you’ve gotten yourself in your rooms, meet and greet your fellow players and Dungeon Masters and then prepare for our welcome feast complete with bardic songs.  Once our bellies are full, Lord Muncaster himself will give us our quest! Without delay we start our adventure that night!

Tuesday July 15
After breakfast at the cafe we take you to the new weapons hall to see how you fare with archery, axe throwing, crossbows, and more!  We’ll have lunch at the tavern, and get right in to our second session.  A dinner break at the tavern, and then it’s right back to gaming.

Wednesday July 16
After breakfast we bring ourselves to the small town of Ravenglass where we board the historic steam train to Eskdale. We go for a quick walk from the Eskdale station to a local tavern for lunch.  From there we visit a fully operational 15th century mill in the beautiful Cumbrian countryside where more clues about the adventure can be found. We return to Muncaster for dinner and a full session of gaming into the night.

Thursday July 17
Breakfast at the cafe, and some free time to explore the grounds, or play some board games with your fellows at the tavern. After lunch, we witness the bird show where you’ll see hawks, eagles, and falcons fly with the castle in the background.  Afterwards, we get a special meeting with the birds. We’ll grab an early dinner at the tavern because we have an all-night gaming session to do.

Friday July 18
Final day of gaming: After breakfast enjoy pick up games at the tavern until lunch, afterwards an all-day adventure awaits in the castle as we face the end of our quest. We close with a Royal Heroes’ Feast as Lord and Lady Muncaster invite us to their formal banquet hall so that they may hear the heroic exploits as your Dungeon Masters give awards to all our adventurers.  We adjourn from the formal hall to our tavern where we shall celebrate into the night!

Saturday July 19
Enjoy a last relaxing morning at the castle, say goodbye to our gracious hosts and we shuttle you to the Ravenglass train station for your next adventure!
