At The Dragonfly Maze, instead of simply trying to find your way to the centre you have to find the 14 clues dotted around our pathways. Only then will you be able to discover the Golden Dragonfly hidden inside the ornate central pavilion. Great fun whether you are 5 or 75.Been to visit us before?Then ask about our extra puzzle!Do our "Village Trail" around Bourton (£1)Take a walk around our beautiful village picking up clues along the way.

“Felt like Indianna Jones”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 April 2012

For the money this was a fantastic way to spend an hour, with clues around the maze to discover the 'secret' at the centre, the only thing missing was that we had no kids to enjoy it with! Good job we are such big kids ourselves. More

My daughter loves the Dragonfly Maze and insists on visiting it at least once every time we go to Bourton on the Water. She knows it so well that she doesn't even bother with the clues now..... and isn't bothered that doing that defeats the object. It is a great, fun, and good value thing to visit. The kiosk has...

A great little activity for all ages that will take about 20 minutes. Don't wear your good shoes as we went on a wet day and it did get a little muddy. More

...because I have a sick obsession when it comes to Mazes. And mazes with riddles and twists at the end...well I am there. It is a little bit pricey if you are a smarty-pants and don’t get into the spirit of it :) I cannot say too much because it will ruin the surprise but it isn’t that big, yet... More

This is a great attraction with the maze being a wonderful experience of looking for the dragonfly at the end. Well worth a visit. We have been before with our grandchildren who loved it. More

“a maze for young and old”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 November 2011

Both my children (8 and 12) loved this maze so much they wanted to do it twice. As you go around the maze, you collect clues on the ground. Any age can do this as you just write down what you see. At the end, you piece your clues together and get a delightful surprise. Definitely worth a visit. The... More
