It is home to over 260 birds of prey, comprising over 40 species of eagles, hawks, falcons and owls. There are three flying displays daily (two during winter) giving a chance to see the birds in action, often with audience participation. Photographers and artists alike can capture these wonderful birds on film or canvas in pleasant surroundings and enjoy the hospitality of our tearoom and gift shop. There is also a craft village and a falconry flying area. There are Twilight Evenings - enjoy watching birds fly as the night gets dark. Booking essential.
