Tucked away in a beautiful unspoilt corner of Northumberland and set in fifty acres of private grounds on the edge of the famous Pennine Way, you will find a family business with a real passion for birds of prey - an activity centre and school for falconry with 45 fully trained working birds that are managed and flown on a daily basis.

People from all walks of life share a similar fascination of Birds Of Prey. This experience will unlock some of the mystery and allow you to get really close to these amazing creatures and at the same time, promote the sport and well being of birds of prey, both in the wild and in captivity.

Whether your interest is in falconry, bird watching, wildlife or just being out in beautiful countryside, this unique family orientated experience has something to offer you.

Your experience begins with a guided tour of the centre during which you will be introduced to their extensive collection of birds. You will then have the opportunity to hold, handle and fly a range of owls.

You will meet the ferrets and learn how they do their job, ending your experience with a Hawk walk through the forest.

The welcoming owners enthusiasm for their extraordinary collection of birds and the fabulous location create the perfect combination for an unforgettable family falconry experience.
