We had such a wonderful experience at the Bay Tree Owl and Raptor Centre! From the moment we arrived, it was abundantly clear just how much the staff love and care for their animals. The highlight of our visit was definitely the flying show—it was absolutely spectacular! The keepers were not only packed with fascinating information about the birds, but they also delivered it with brilliant humour that kept everyone entertained. We had an amazing time and are already looking forward to our next visit to see even more of their incredible birds in flight. Highly recommended! · via Google [Michelle Healey](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/103985210643488262831/reviews) ★★★★★ Absolutely fantastic We did a family experience for 4 The kids thought the birds were so cool. Evie the lady was so nice and had so much knowledge about the birds and owls.. it was such a great day. Would highly recommend. Perfect for a day out. Lovely gift shop.. Lots of birds and owls to see Can't wait to go back to do the bigger birds. · via Google [Craig Newton](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/116732219226859503406/reviews) ★★★★★ We booked a raven experience with Mark and it was absolutely first class. Mark is bursting with information and explains everything so well throughout. The centre is amazing with such a great range of birds, some we had never seen or heard of before. But the star of the show is Doodles, what a character! We can't wait to come back in Summer and spend some time here. The entry charge is an absolute bargain, and there are so many other things around it to make your day out, garden centre, restaurant, record shop. Thank you for such a memorable day we will never forget. · via Google [Verity Caton](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/114537090809481955373/reviews) ★★★★★ Visited for my son’s 6th birthday as he’s become interested in birds. Most falconry places near to us have died out or become zoos with few birds so we travelled 1.5 hours to get to BORC. We thought it was great. A good variation of owls etc to look at and a great display… despite the hot weather, the birds did a great demo and the falconers were funny and interesting. The odd review says there isn’t a lot there and it smells; I’m not sure what these people are expecting for the price and the fact it’s an owl and raptor centre. It’s not a zoo, so don’t expect anything other than birds. We thought it was good value and considering we visited on a really hot day the smell was minimal so I don’t understand people whinging about the smell. Our 15 year old daughter was a fan of Jeff and our 10 year old daughter loved crumpet, so it had something for everyone. The red legged bird that does a snake killing demo was hilarious and brilliant as was the bird landing on my husband’s head. Rage cooled us off flying over our heads too. Overall, we had a great day and got exactly what we were hoping for. Finished off with a nice ice cream and a play on the park for the kids in the garden centre. · via Google Visitors say this owl and raptor center offers a wide variety of well-cared-for birds, including owls and raptors, and features engaging flying displays.
