Cornish Maize Maze Re-Opens for Summer 2010

The

Cornish Maize Maze and Fun Farm at Smeaton Farm in Pillaton Saltash re-opened last

Saturday 17th July with a real clownin’ about spectacle!

The

maze grown from maize corn every year can not open until the summer months when

the maize has grown sufficiently high enough to make it difficult for you to

find your way through the maize. The maze is a completely different shape every

year, this year in 2010 the shape and theme is clowns.

Cut

from the maize is a 200m or 650ft clown juggling 5 balls. Carved and planned

using satellite navigation the maze covers a space of 8 acres giving you over 3

miles of maze to walk through and get lost in! Half-way there is a bridge

giving you the opportunity to view your progress and a chance to escape to

catch your breath if you need to.

The

Cornish Maize Maze is worth a visit in the summer holidays. Follow the path and

collect all 10 clown stamps, we managed 7, I dare you to be able to find them

all! There are also plenty of other things going on, including animals to see

& feed, trampolines, bouncy castles and a giant sand pit.

This

is a great day out for all ages but I advise you to bring your own picnic for

the picnic tables outside, some light refreshments are provided, and go on the

train around the farm at one o’clock.

Adults £5.50 and children
