Eagle Handling Day
Great day from start to finish. A well planned and organised day with friendly and enthusiastic staff to inform, advise and present you with a fantastic experience culminating in the closest encounter with these huge birds of prey. A lasting memory leaving you with a wish to do it all again.

Eagle Handling Day
I was given the Eagle Handling Day as a present and it really lived up to my hopes. I had an excellent day with Ed, learned lots about the birds and their habitats and how each flies. The birds were amazing, it's a great experience having a Bald Eagle rushing towards you and landing on your glove. The birds were so different, and the little Harris Hawk weaving through the trees in the wood was very impressive. Each had its own personality and I found it a really memorable experience and one with I thoroughly enjoyed.
A Great Experience, I Couldn't Stop Talking About

Eagle Handling Day
A very welcoming venue. The staff are very friendly and put you at ease straight away. After a quick cup of tea and the paperwork complete it was off to see the eagles. I was very impressed by the knowledge and professionalism of Joe, my guide for the day. He gave me the confidence to handle the birds and within half an hour I was flying a Bald Eagle to glove. After a spot of lunch which was good tasty food, we were back out in open fields flying three more eagles. Joe managed to get us back before the last show of the day. I would be very happy to recommend the experience to any one who has a passion for eagles.

Eagle Handling Day
Nothing can prepare you for the sight of an amazing bird of prey coming in to land gently on your gauntletted hand. These are not circus animals but birds that can survive in the wild and are confident enough to get up close and personal with complete strangers. To be within inches of their incredibly strong bills, their talons, adapted to secure their particular prey and their eyes that can watch prey from a thousand or so feet is a truly humbling experience.
A Really Brilliant Life-enhancing Day

I was really well looked after by the knowledgeable and dedicated staff, and now know a whole lot about eagles! The experience itself was so much more amazing than I imagined and has given me some fantastic memories. I shall be going back soon.
Unbelievable Experience

Eagle Handling Day
A fantastic day from start to finish. All the staff were knowledgeable and happy to answer all my questions. Flew a number of birds but the highlights were an hour's walk over farmland with a pair of Harris Hawks, and flying a White tailed sea eagle to the fist. Unforgettable experience and I will certainly be visiting the centre again.
Simply brilliant

Simply brilliant. Besides the unique experience of handling such amazing birds I found all the staff to be exceptionally friendly, committed and well-informed.
