This Birds of Prey centre is amazing, you do not want to miss it.. All of the birds are spectacular & each bird has a description of where it comes from with a map of where in the world, it's habitat & eating habits. The cafe is lovely too the carrot & coriander soup was great.
The flying displays
Great place to see birds of prey, some I had never heard of. The flying displays were great, falcons sat on people's head and my shoulder, there was even an owl that flew off in a huff!! ( not planned) That cafe was OK.The toilets could have been better but spent over 2 hours there could easily been
We arrived just as the last display was on. Lucky enough to watch the black kite display ( brilliant). 2 displays daily late morning and 2pm. Staff very friendly with great advice and information. Gift shop and toilets on site. Plenty of birds to see in their aviaries free carpark
Took a mis turn to the Castle and happily landed here. Managed to see nearly all of the 2pm show. Great presentation by the staff and the birds. It was well worth seeing. Definitely worth a visit.
Excellent visit to the birds of prey centre at Helmsley.
Staff are so knowledgeable & genuinely care for the birds & there welfare. The displays are well worth seeing, nice grounds to walk around also, good cafe with reasonable prices & fab homemade cakes.
Walked to the centre from the village and got there just as one of the displays started.
The staff are very knowledgeable and obviously care a lot for the birds. Harley the owl was a real star. The aviaries are large and airy and the birds are well cared for. A great place to take children.
I had such a lovely time at the centre! The flying demonstrations are fun and informative, and the staff are really friendly. It was wonderful seeing the work being done here, so I sponsored one of the birds for a year as well. I look forward to returning when I'm next in the area!
Superb Bird of Prey centre with a wide range of domestic and foreign birds. Excellent flying displays with the birds encouraged to display natural behaviours. This was our second visit and it's a must to go again next time we're in the area.
Saw an amazing display last week with a number of gorgeous and impressive birds, butvthe show was most definately stolen by the amazing looking Stellars Sea Eagle. Huge. And we got a freebie when a wild Osprey joined the show! Fabulous!
Great afternoon out.
Helpful staff and well worth the visit.
Only slight grumble but by no means a deal breaker was the gift shop. All those lovely birds and then limited options in the shop but that was in no way a reflection of the great time we had. We will make sure to be back!
