What is Lichfield Maize Maze?

Lichfield Maize Maze is an award-winning, family-run outdoor attraction on our working farm near Lichfield. Every summer, families and friends come to explore our two maize mazes, wander through our sunflower and wildflower fields, enjoy outdoor play and spend quality time together in the countryside.

A Summer to Remember

There’s something rather special about a day spent outdoors together.

Whether you’re winding your way through the maize maze, wandering amongst the sunflowers, taking on the challenge of this year’s maze game or simply enjoying a picnic in the sunshine, we hope you’ll leave with happy memories and a desire to visit again.

Your admission includes our incredible main maze and mini maze, each with brand-new educational and interactive games for 2026, along with our beautiful sunflower and wildflower fields, picnic and play area, giant sandpit, bale towers, ride-on tractors, traditional garden games and gift shop.

This year’s maze celebrates the incredible diversity of the world’s rainforests. As you make your way around the maze, you’ll meet some of the amazing animals that live there, discover how they survive and learn why rainforests are such precious places. We hope you’ll leave having had lots of fun and perhaps discovered something new along the way.

Whether you’re coming to put your navigation skills to the test in the maze, spend time with family and friends, enjoy the sunflowers and wildflowers or simply relax in the countryside, we hope you’ll find something that makes your day special. After all, some of the best days are the ones spent outdoors, together.

SUNFLOWERS & WILDFLOWERS

Pick Your Own Flowers

One of the highlights of summer at Lichfield Maize Maze is the opportunity to wander through our beautiful flower fields.

Different flowers and varieties reach their best at different times throughout the summer,
which means there is always something new to
discover whenever you visit. Stroll amongst the
sunflowers, explore our colourful wildflower
meadow and pick your own flowers to take
home as a lovely reminder of your visit. Visitors
are welcome to pick as many or as few as they’d like, then simply pay for the stems or bunches they’d like to take home
before leaving.

A few things to know before you pick:

  • Bring secateurs if you have them. We have a small number available to borrow on site.
  • A bucket or bag is useful for carrying your flowers home.
  • Gardening gloves can be helpful.
  • Flowers are priced per stem or bunch and can be purchased before you leave

BEYOND THE MAZE

Play & Explore

There’s plenty to keep everyone entertained
once you’ve completed the maze.

Children can climb our straw bale towers, dig
in the giant sandpit, enjoy a game of Swingball
or traditional garden games, or head to the
mini tractor yard, while others relax with a
picnic or enjoy the open space and
countryside.


All play areas are supervised by parents or carers.

CAFÉ & PICNICS

Food & Drink

Whether you’re bringing a picnic or treating yourself to something from Field & Flower Café, there’s plenty of choice during your visit.


The café serves a selection of hot and cold
drinks, sandwiches, cakes and ice creams, and you’re very welcome to bring your own picnic to enjoy in one of our picnic areas.
