1. Try to go on a day when it's not going to rain or hasn't been raining recently.
2. If it's been raining recently, take some walking boots or wellys and a change of clothes - you will get muddy.
3. On a dry day, there's enough to do there to occupy the kids for a whole day.

5. Don't go into the maze just before lunch. It'll take you a few hours.
6. Take photos
