Cowdray’s Maize Maze is now open providing plenty of summer holiday entertainment for the family as well as giving children the chance to learn more about farming and animals along the way.

The first visitors arrived on Wednesday 9th August on a beautiful summer’s day to enjoy a trail featuring Farmer Barney who has lost his animals as well as the Sunflower Picking Patch. Located overlooking the Cowdray Ruins off the A272 with ample parking, there is plenty for visitors to enjoy.

Children can run around exploring the Maize Maze while collecting eight hidden stamps along the way. They can then pick their own sunflower to take home as well as enjoy photo opportunities and there is even a piano surrounded by hay bales for children to play on.
