Longleat Maze

If you've been looking for the perfect place to get lost on your next vacation, look no further than the village of Horningsham, England, where the garden of the Longleat stately home is ready to let you get lost in the truest sense.  The Longleat Hedge Maze, designed and created in 1975, is the longest hedge maze in the world, spanning a length of a whopping 2.72 kilometers over 1 and a half acres. Consisting of some 16,000 English yews that stand eight feet tall, it's easy to see why the incredible maze has "help boxes" scattered throughout its interior. If you lose your way in here, you could quite easily be lost for hours, especially considering that a successful navigation with no mistakes can take around an hour. The maze is so massive that it requires a team of six gardeners wielding high powered hedge trimmers to keep in check. Their rounds last nearly a month, and they perform their exhausting duties twice a year. Successfully navigating the maze will reward players with a visit to the observation tower that overlooks the beautiful estate of the Marquesses of Bath, a massive piece of property that even includes a drive-through safari park.
