  • Mind-bending fun for the whole family
  • Totally unique indoor attraction in York city centre
  • Hands-on illusions, tricks and hilarious photo moments

Step right up for a delightfully disorienting family day out at The Puzzling World of Professor Kettlestring – York’s quirkiest indoor attraction and a feast for curious minds of all ages. Perfect for a family adventure, a weekend treat, or a truly unique gift, this one-of-a-kind experience proves that science and silliness make the perfect pair.

Hidden away on Merchantgate in York city centre, this mind-boggling world is bursting with hands-on exhibits, optical illusions and sensory trickery that’ll have the whole family laughing, gasping and questioning reality itself. Best of all, it’s completely indoors – so your plans are safe come rain or shine (because, well, Yorkshire weather).

Here’s just a glimpse of what’s in store:

The Tubular Trickery Chamber – Step between two enormous pipes and watch your kids (or partner) appear to be sucked into a swirling vortex of chaos. It’s all smoke and mirrors – but the photos are priceless.

Infinite Cognexions Kaleidoscope – Pop your head into a mirrored chamber and meet a thousand versions of yourself. The ultimate test of who has the silliest face in the family.

The Paradoxical Sideways Suite – A cosy living room where gravity takes a day off. Walk up the walls, sit on the ceiling and prove that physics can, in fact, be fun.

The Perception Perturber Chamber – Feel like a giant or a pixie as perspective bends and warps around you. Kids especially love this one – and parents might secretly enjoy it even more.

The Enigma Chair – Take a seat and watch your proportions change before your eyes. It’s the Professor’s proudest illusion – and a must-see for selfie lovers.

The Incognito Chamber – Disappear into the décor with a patterned cape and become part of the walls. It’s hide-and-seek, but make it scientific.

The Head Havoc Parlour – Sit at the Professor’s dinner table where the main course is… your head! Equal parts spooky and side-splitting, it’s a real family favourite.

So whether you’re hunting for a fun-filled day out in York, a unique family experience, or a quirky gift idea, The Puzzling World of Professor Kettlestring promises an unforgettable mix of laughter, learning and illusion.

This voucher admits two adults and two children – perfect for a family of four ready to take on York’s most brain-bending adventure!

two night mid week coastal escape for up to 6 in robin hood’s bay (copy)A Potted History of the Life and Times of Professor Kettlestring

Step into The Puzzling World of Professor Kettlestring and explore the curious mind behind some of the most marvellously eccentric inventions of the 19th century. Here’s a glimpse into his remarkable life…

~ 1816 ~

Born in the historic city of York. Even as a child, young Kettlestring showed signs of inventive brilliance (and mischief).

~ 1824 ~

At just ten years old, he unveils his first invention – the Pocket-Clock Sneezer. Designed to sneeze on command, it caused quite a stir… and more than a few unexpected sprays!

~ 1829 ~

Travels to Merseyside to witness George Stephenson’s Rocket, sparking a lifelong fascination with machinery, motion, and marvellous mechanisms.

~ 1847 ~

Invents the Enigma Chair, an ingenious creation that continues to baffle and delight visitors to this very day.

~ 1849 ~

Designs the Perception Perturber Room, a mind-bending chamber that distorts perspective and confounds the senses — step inside if you dare!

~ 1851 ~

Unveils an extraordinary time machine. But in true Kettlestring fashion, things take an unexpected turn. After 33 years living in isolation, the Professor mysteriously disappears — leaving behind only his inventions and a trail of tantalising clues…
