DARTS FARM’S MAIZE MAZE

Celebrating the RNLI, this year's maze is in the shape of a boat.  On their way round visitors will find hidden clues, make a note of the letters they find and unscramble them to find the hidden word. Once they have the answer, they can return to the Farm Shop or 'The Shack' to claim their sweet prize. It costs £2 and all proceeds go towards the RNLI.
