Situated in beautiful countryside between Andover and Basingstoke, the marvellous Manydown Maize Maze proves that getting lost can sometimes be fun! Come the summer holidays, I can assure you that it provides several very good hours of fresh air entertainment.

Sculpted according to a different theme each year, you’ll be given a series of questions to help navigate your way out of the towering maize. But if you time your visit strategically and follow your nose and you might just manage to sniff your way to victory and straight to the daily lunch time bbq. After all the wrong turns you’ll certainly be in need of a lazy afternoon spent enjoying the picnic area, while those with surplus energy can climb straw bale mountain and meet the Manydown Farm animals.
