The British Bird of Prey Centre is a small, friendly attraction designed to be easy to explore, with clear and informative signage throughout the site to help visitors learn as they discover its residents. Guests can meet 20 British birds of prey, including eagles, owls, kites, and falcons, all housed in spacious aviaries that allow for close-up viewing and a deeper understanding of what makes each species unique.
Each aviary features information about the bird’s name, age, and fascinating facts about the species, offering visitors the opportunity to learn as they make their way around the centre. However, the best way to truly get to know the birds is by speaking with the team. Every bird has its own personality and story, many of which go beyond what can be shared during the flying displays. Visitors are encouraged to chat with the staff, who are always happy to share their knowledge and introduce the birds that make up the centre’s feathered family.
The highlight of any visit is the spectacular flying displays, where birds fly completely free in both the indoor and outdoor arenas. Every display is unique and included in the admission ticket. These demonstrations showcase natural behaviours, individual personalities, and the remarkable abilities of Britain’s birds of prey. To make the most of their day, visitors are encouraged to plan their visit around the display schedule.
Between displays, guests can explore the aviaries, visit the Indoor Interactive Activity Centre, enjoy the outdoor play area, and relax in the café, which serves a selection of drinks, snacks, and light meals.
With its relaxed atmosphere, easy-to-navigate layout, and engaging experiences, the British Bird of Prey Centre offers a memorable day out for visitors of all ages. Every visit also helps support the care of the birds and contributes to the conservation of British wildlife.
