We
booked
the
owl
experience
as
a
birthday
treat
for
my
mother
and
what
an
experience
it
was!
Be
advised
the
post
code
doesn’t
take
you
to
the
centre,
use
it
to
get
close
then
look
out
for
signs.
We
missed
the
actual
Bird
of
Prey
sign
but
there
is
a
massive
sign
for
a
cattery,
that’s
the
road
you
want!
Also
the
site
of
the
local
hotel.
Once
on
site
the
Bird
of
Prey
Centre
is
located
at
the
very
end
of
a
narrow
single
track
road,
as
my
mother
is
disabled
we
did
drive
down;
I
advise
you
to
park
on
the
left
at
the
top
of
this
lane
though
and
walk
down.
As
you
enter
the
centre
you’re
straight
into
the
cafe
where
you
can
grab
a
coffee
and
a
slice
of
cake.
Later
in
the
day
they
also
do
hotdogs
and
paninis,
there
is
also
a
selection
of
cold
drinks
and
seating.
The
staff
were
amazing
right
from
the
off,
plenty
of
banter
and
laughter,
they
are
all
volunteers
who
love
showing
you
the
birds
so
make
the
most
of
their
passion
and
experience.
There
is
a
wide
variety
of
bird
of
prey
to
look
at
complete
with
information
boards,
live
shows
which
include
feeding
and
flying
happen
throughout
the
day
in
the
flying
arena.
This
is
an
interactive
experience
so
be
prepared
to
get
involved
and
have
a
go
at
flying
some
of
the
birds
yourself.
We
had
a
electric
mobility
scooter
for
my
mother
who
is
disabled,
at
times
the
scooter
struggled
with
the
outdoor
terrain
but
this
was
easily
resolved
with
a
little
manual
push
when
it
did
get
stuck.
As
a
result
I
would
say
this
centre
is
easily
accessible
for
the
disabled,
they
have
ramps
at
the
entrance/exit
and
there
are
no
steps
to
negotiate.
I
would
advise
you
take
warm
clothing
and
waterproofs
depending
on
the
weather
as
the
majority
of
the
centre
is
outside,
the
flying
arena
can
be
breezy
adding
to
the
cold.
There
are
some
trampolines
for
children
to
have
fun
on
if
they
get
bored.
This
is
a
real
chance
to
see
birds
of
prey
in
action
and
flying
extremely
close,
and
for
you
to
feed
the
birds
and
have
them
land
on
you;
it
is
truly
spectacular.
We
had
an
awesome
experience
and
loved
every
minute
of
it!
On
your
way
out
you
can
put
a
donation
into
an
owls
beak
(donation
bucket)
or
there
are
opportunities
to
sponsor
a
bird
where
you
get
a
certificate
and
priority
on
handling
when
you
visit.
This
is
a
charity
organisation
so
they
rely
on
bookings,
sponsorship
and
donations
to
survive
and
educate
us
all
on
these
fantastic
and
beautiful
animals.
You
can
also
be
a
volunteer
if
you’re
interested,
be
prepared
to
muck
in
and
clean
out
the
aviaries
and
sweep
to
start
with
though…..you
can’t
go
straight
into
being
a
master
of
flying
the
birds.
Based
on
our
experience
today
I
would
totally
recommend
a
visit,
we
will
be
back.
