Event: Ansty Maize Maze in Dorset
Date: Open until September 14th 2008

Deep in Thomas Hardy country, not far from luxury Dorset hotel the Summer Lodge, one of the region's most famous landmarks is once more open to the public.

An ideal family fun day out for those staying at luxury Dorset hotel the Summer Lodge, the Ansty Maize Maze is great outdoors entertainment for the young and old.

Now open again until September 14th 2008, the maize maze is in its seventh year and claims to be one of the first original maize maze's from which the current trend has sprung.

Depending upon their level of commitment, guests visiting the maze from luxury Dorset hotel the Summer Lodge could find themselves trying to crack the labyrinth for anywhere from between 15 minutes to well over four hours.

Not an ordinary maze, once visitors have solved the puzzle and found their way to the middle they can test their wits further with the maize quiz trail and games.

Visitors can even try out the maze at night time, with a light barbeque supper offered once you reach the centre.

The Dorset's Gardens package includes full English breakfast, tickets to the stunning Montacute House and a visit to Tintinhull Gardens in addition to a tour around the property and gardens.
