The 2026 Maize Maze is Coming Soon

We're busy growing something special at South Farm Rodmell. This summer, our maize maze returns to the East Sussex countryside, two mazes, one brilliant day out, and thousands of twists and turns to navigate with the whole family.

Whether you're looking for a family day out near Lewes, something to do with the kids in the summer holidays, or just a genuinely good excuse to get outside - this is it.

Get ready to get lost in the heart of the South Downs

What to expect:

  • Two mazes on site - a mini maze to warm up and a main maze to really test your navigational skills (around 1.5–2 hours)

  • Stunning views across the South Downs from inside the maze

  • Set on a real working farm in Rodmell, just outside Lewes in East Sussex

  • Free parking on site in a grass field

  • Picnics welcome - bring a blanket and make a day of it

  • Dogs welcome outside the maze on a non-extendable lead

  • Suitable for all ages - pushchair accessible for the determined!
