FAQ

• What does the price include?

  This is an all inclusive weekend. This means all of your accommodation, food & drink, activities (D&D) and items you’ll need to play included. You’ll get a total of 5 meals over the weekend, we’ll also keep the crisps, snacks and sugar coming during the games. We’ll give everyone who comes their own dice, notebooks and stationary that are yours to keep. We’ll also give you character sheets and printed game guides to help you play. D&D wise, we’ve planned for around 12 hours of professionally run D&D in a bespoke setting. So lots is included!

• Do the all inclusive drinks include alcohol?

  No. Due to licencing we will not provide alcohol. You can bring your own, but please drink responsibly and not to excess. This is not designed to be a boozy weekend, but we are mindful that sometime a yard of ale can help with creativity!

• I've never played D&D before, is that cool?

  Absolutely 100% yes!! Our Dungeon Masters (the folk who run the games) are specialists in running games for newbie. We’ll even schedule in a couple of virtual sessions beforehand to go over the basics with you 121.

• Is the retreat wheelchair friendly?

  We’re really sorry, but not this time. Our first retreat in Caerleon is in a barn from the 1700’s, this means lots of steps and narrow doors. We are planning more retreats for the year in much more inclusive and modern venues.

• Can I bring my pet?

  The Granary has one pet friendly suite for a friendly pet. There is a small additional charge. Please let us know when you receive your final booking form.

• We're in a converted barn right? Is there heating?

  Yep! Each suite is fully central heated. The games area and halls have beautiful open fires which we will have lit and roaring.

• What D&D setting are we playing in?

  We will be playing in a homebrew setting loosely inspired by the Forgotten Realms and Arthurian legends.

• What type of character can we make?

  You can make whatever you want; this is your weekend! We will be in a homebrew setting, so anything goes. The campaign will be loosely based on Arthurian legends, but whether you stick to the theme or not is entirely up to you

• Do you provide any equipment, dice, etc.?

  Dice, notebooks, pencils, physical character sheets, players handbooks (to borrow!), some surprises along the way. Guides for new players. Plenty of materials, we want your journey to be as light as possible.

• What happens if my character dies?

  Don’t worry! We’ll roll up a new one super fast! We’ll have have some pre-made back up characters to use so you can get straight back into the action

• Do I have to dress up? Do I need to be a good voice actor?

  Nope and nope. Our games are all about fun, laughter, rolling dice and being silly. Our Dungeons Masters our just normal people with a love for the hobby, we certainly don’t cosplay… but its totally cool if you wish too.
