Please use our official website and not Google for up to date information. A traditional yew hedge maze with gravelled footpaths and a puzzle to complete as you find your way to the centre. We do not take any pre bookings. Tickets only sold on the day, direct from the kiosk window.
A fun activity for a family (possibly with 9 year olds and over rather than younger)! Teamwork is a must here, it's not straightforward at all. We managed to solve the puzzle which was quite challenging but felt very rewarding at the end. The maze itself is just perfect not too big or small. Highly recommended from us!
An awesome maze which can be completed in around 45-60 minutes. Suitable for all ages but ideally suited to 7-12 year olds. Solving the puzzle as you go around the maze is tricky but fun! Near the finish, you will find a chamber with a metal frog enclosed in the centre. You then have to put together the clues you have picked up in order to reveal the dragonfly. It's not that straightforward and does require some perseverance.
Fantastic experience! Stuart the gatekeeper is alone worth the trip. Our 6 and 9 year olds loved it. Fun little puzzle. It only took us about 30 minutes, but still highly recommend!
Lovely fun activity to do with family. The entrance numbers are staggered so you never feel like there are too many people at once. Loved the clues on the floor to look for. We visited with 3 generations and the oldest enjoyed it as much as the youngest.
Fun for young and old alike. We were 2 adults and found it really enjoyable. Thought we were never going to get out. Clues to solve along the way, quite tricky so thank goodness for the children at the end who helped us out Highly recommend for anyone visiting Bourton on the Water.
We, 2 adults, loved this maze. If it were only a maze, I would have been very bored. However, they had 14 different locations you had to find in the maze. Each of the first 13 gave you clues, so when you arrived at the last location, you could uncover the dragonfly. We got lucky as when we arrived, we got right in. The lady at the desk was very helpful and friendly. She also keeps track of how many people are in the maze, so it's not overrun. To those to visit: When you find a clue or figure one out, please don't shout them out. We knew many already, but it takes the fun away from the challenge when you have kids and adults, shouting them out. Maybe the business could hang a sign or something to suggest this? The very back row has vines with thorns, so we needed to use a little caution in the area. They were out of the way of kids, at least. Affordable and nice way to sepnd about 30 min.
