PLANS for a new ‘escape room’ attraction have been approved by Bournemouth council.

The site at 673-675 Christchurch Road in Boscombe will have five game rooms, be open from 11am to 8pm excluding Sundays.

A report by council planning officers states: “In summary this further application for a leisure use would be considered to be compatible with the shopping area and residential amenity subject to suitable conditional controls.”
