A special experience with the birds of prey.
Carly was excellent and ensured everyone had equal time with each bird even though there were quite a few in the group.
Definitely recommend .
On the positive side
-The woman that did the display was fantastic. She really knew her stuff, she answered everyone’s questions and was entertaining.
- Lots of amazing beautiful birds when we walked around in cages and used in the display.
- They released lot of birds at a time to music which was really good to see so many flying at the same time.
On the negative side
- The receptionist was rude to all 4 of us when we arrived. She was clearly annoyed she had given us 4 stickers before our 2 other friends had arrived, like we’d deceived her for some reason ! She also denied telling us to wait in the field as the display had started elsewhere. We all very negative about the place before we’d even started.
- The display group was far too big. We were in a group of 28 people so when the birds were being passed around we waited for ages before we could hold the birds. Also taking part in the displays took ages to include everyone. So became very boring which was a shame because the display was good otherwise.
Overall, good quality but needs to be smaller groups 1/2 the time, and better reception.

Took part in one of their photography days, a mix of static and flying opportunities to take pictures of a mix of owls, raptors, and other birds. Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable on the birds. Lunch was included, which was excellent.

We visited Herrings Green Activity Farm & Bird of Prey Centre as a family and had a really nice day. Our son especially enjoyed the bird of prey displays – getting to hold an owl was definitely a highlight for him. The staff were knowledgeable and made the experience interesting without overloading it with too much information.
There were lots of animals around the farm, and the environment felt relaxed and friendly. One of the moments we’ll remember most was when my wife got to feed the alpacas – it was something she had always wanted to do, and it definitely made her day.
The farm is well set up for families, with various play areas and activities for kids. Everything was clean and easy to navigate, and there were plenty of spots to sit or grab a snack.
Overall, it was a pleasant day out – a good mix of fun, learning, and time spent outdoors. We’d recommend it to anyone looking for a calm, animal-filled day with the family.
