Here at Exmoor Owl and Hawk Centre we focus on your enjoyment at interacting with the birds in a safe environment. As animal behaviourists we encourage all our birds to have a good quality of life while they train us to allow them to behave in as natural a way as possible. We all can learn a great deal from our companion birds.

We have a large collection of owls and birds of prey, with one of the best groups of flying owls in the country, ...... plus hawks, eagle, kookaburra and palm nut vulture. Many of the owls are not flown at other centres and make very special experiences.

TEN GOOD REASONS why you should book your activity with us!

We have been running successfully for 16 years, and working with animals and birds of prey for over 23 years

We were one of the first centres to offer bird of prey experiences, and are recognised leaders in this field

We have a zoo licence, undergo regular inspections, and keep all our birds and animals according to zoo licencing recommendations

None of our birds are tethered, all are kept in aviaries and flown out of aviaries

We have third party insurance to £5 million for your protection

We have one of the most diverse collections of flown owls in the country, including some really special owls which you can fly

You can fly as many as 14 different birds during a Bird of Prey Experience day with us - not just one or two!

We are located in one of the most beautiful parts of the country

You can stay in our magnificent 15th century farmhouse when you fly with us
During your experience with us you can 'buy into' different sections of the day, to give you lasting memories for life.
If you choose to do a full day with mixed birds of prey or with owls you can enjoy the experience of flying at least 12 different birds to your gloved hand. We endeavour to keep the day as individual as possible, with a maximum of four people at any one time, but generally you will have the day to yourselves..
When you come on one of our experiences you can stay all day and enjoy the facilities of the Centre at no extra cost, or your stay bed and breakfast in our lovely farmhouse.
Or you may wish to take up the challenge and experience of embarking on a rare encounter with our alpacas, miniature donkeys and miniature shetland ponies, on a magical trek to the sea, returning through the National Trust village of Bossington.

All our activities require pre-booking on 01643 862816.
All our birds are housed in aviaries, and are flown daily unless in moult or rest break
