The British Bird of Prey Centre

The British Bird of Prey Centre is the only place in the UK dedicated solely to British raptors.

Open every day, you’ll enjoy three thrilling flying shows in our indoor and outdoor arenas, hands-on activities, a café to refuel, and plenty of space for little ones to play.

Whether you fancy meeting owls and eagles up close, seeing soaring red kites and flying falcons or capturing that perfect photo, our flying experiences and monthly events make every visit unforgettable.

Our feathered stars live in large, natural aviaries and choose when to fly or relax – giving you the chance to meet their quirky personalities while supporting vital conservation. Come for the birds, stay for the adventure!
