Smugglers Adventure
Is it indoor or outdoor?
The attraction is set in underground caves so is indoor throughout. However please be aware these are historic caves which remain authentic so it can be quite chilly and damp.
Is it dark in the caves?
The caves are dark but are lit with atmospheric lighting throughout making it safe and enjoyable for visitors.
Are the caves scary for children?
The caves are not meant to be frightening for children, however the cold, damp atmosphere and dim lighting may mean some younger children are initially nervous to enter the caves.
Hastings Castle
Is it indoor or outdoor?
The majority of the attraction is outdoor as Hastings Castle is a historic castle ruin. There is one small underground section in the ancient dungeons and in the on-site cinema, however the attraction is deemed as an outdoor attraction.
Can I bring my dog?
Unfortunately no dogs, except registered guide dogs, are permitted into the Hastings Castle grounds.
