The birds and animals seemed really well cared for and loved We Spent a really nice couple of hours here before going into the playbarn I would recommend doing it the other way around though. There were no flight displays either and I think it could be better advertised when this is the case.

OBEs for these guys please. Doing a great job caring for the birds and other animals, whilst providing a very reasonably priced activity. Lots of learning and observing opportunities.

Here’s a balanced, concise review: We had a lovely visit and enjoyed seeing the wide variety of birds of prey, along with other animals including an emu, ponies, goats and horses. It was great to be able to get close to so many different animals. The website mentioned sheep, but we didn’t see any during our visit. It would also have been nice to watch a bird of prey flying display, although I can appreciate that with the site being very quiet on the day, this may not have been practical. The staff were polite and welcoming, although quite reserved. Overall, a pleasant visit and a good place for animal lovers, especially those interested in birds of prey.

We were staying down the road so decided to visit cornish birds of prey and I was glad we did. All the birds and other animals seem really well cared for. It was interesting and quite sad reading some of the stories of how some of the animals ended up there but they now seem to be cared for and have a safe enviroment. Excellent value for money and its good to know all the money goes straight back in to the sanctuary. I would definatly recommend a visit.
