We went on a rainy Saturday in May .The place is a little sad and neglected.We enjoyed looking at the birds.The staff are nice and friendly but were not good at informing us about the birds and animals .The birds were not flying because of the weather and the barrel ride was also not available for the same reason.
Where and when any activities were taking place was not clear and those activities that did occur were very brief.
It was expensive for the experience we had.It has the potential to be so much better.

My adult son bought us a Hunting with Hawks day at Herring Green for my birthday, we arrived prompt at 9:00 am and although they had not opened yet we were greeted by Laura who introduced herself as our falconer for the day. Started the day with a nice Latte and a briefing by Laura and then we were introduced to the birds a very handsome pair of Harris Hawks. After some instruction on safe handling of the birds we proceeded to thaw land where we would be hunting this would be in two sessions a morning one with some young less experienced birds and then the afternoon with two very experienced birds. Sadly we saw no game to hunt but enjoyed a great walk in some nice weather whilst sending the birds out and calling them back to the glove. As we hadn’t seen any game Laura organized for us to have some large eagles to handle. On the whole despite no hunting we had a great day, yes the birds were the stars by Laura made the day great with her instructions and in the ease that we had a rapport with her. Will we go back, well this is our third visit we had an experience day and did a three day course on bird of prey management so the answer is yes absolutely we will be going back.

My wife paid for myself and daughter to enjoy an owl and Eagle Experience which we booked for today. It was two hours and was thoroughly enjoyable. We had one young lady looking after us and she allowed us to fly and handle a whole range of owls and a couple of eagles. I could tell how dedicated the staff are to these birds and they are very well cared for. The knowledge of our lady was impressive especially as she told us she was an apprentice and only been there 4 months. (Very impressive)
Would very much recommend if you like birds of prey.

Took our 7 year old grandson & we all loved it. Group of 12 which was about right. Two brilliant, friendly & informative members of staff looked after us. I thought it was expensive when I booked it, but it was well worth the money. Birds flying onto our arms and lots of different animals to learn about. Great day

Never actually undertook the bird of prey experience, initially was due to covid understandably. However when eventually getting through to the team, we booked a date, our voucher was then redeem by the centre, then two days before was cancelled by the centre. We rung up ample times to try to rebook, no one ever answers the phone. Eventually got through, 4 times they said they would get back to us, never did. We rang again, to be informed we can only use our voucher in the week day. Happy to take the money and make it hard for the customer. Really disappointed with the centres management and hospitality.

A good day out with the grandchildren- however there could be some improvements. We were part of a small group which was put on especially for home educated children. It was very well priced which made it affordable- thank you for that.
Abbie, the falconer was very good with the children. She gave them some brilliant information and experiences, holding and flying birds, a hawk walk after lunch and a gruesome display of the birds’ favourite foods ( which of course was announced as the best bit!).
She is very knowledgeable and was able to keep the children’s’ attention all day.
The only thing I would say is that because the birds are weighed in ounces, the numbers meant nothing to the children as they now only learn grammes, so they couldn’t identify with how much the birds weighed.
Similarly, a wing span of six feet also went over their heads ( excuse the pun).
I agree that the parking area is too small. We were irritated by seeing advertisements for ice creams and yet when we went to buy some there wasn’t any as “ they haven’t been delivered”. Just a small niggle, but annoying anyway.
Also the whole place looks pretty tatty - it really needs smartening up.
Having said all that, I still recommend it as a good day out.

Had a really disappointing visit today, costs £32 for 3 adults and one child and one under 2. We had previously visited last summer and had a great day but this time we felt the farm was unloved and very run down.
Not many animals to see, a lot of the birds were covered up as breeding( understand this). The tractors and bikes to ride on where old, broken , dirty and wet from the previous nights rain. The play area was not very accessible as all the slides had a huge muddy hole at the bottom and were surrounded by churned up very wet and muddy areas. No hot water at the hand washing places.

Excellent experience, birds are awesome and staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. We’ve been several times.
The parking is the worst part, there aren’t enough spaces even on a winter Saturday, especially when the overflow field is closed.
(Also when we’ve phoned to get information and are promised a call back, we’ve never got one)

This is located at Herrings Green Farm and is one of its main attractions (there is also a farm shop and play area as well). The shows and experiences that are put on are very entertaining and informative.

how much are the admission tickets
Verfasst am 8. Juli 2016
We bought a great deal from Groupon and had a wonderful 3 hours handling the birds but I saw the admission prices and at £12 per adult and £34 for a family ticket I thought this was really well priced. Especially as you can spend the whole day there and the farm next door and also you get treated to a 30 minute flying display that you get to take part in. Well priced for a day full of created memories. I saw there was also an annual membership but didn't see the price I am afraid.

Hello,
I was wondering if lunch is available at the tea rooms or is it best to bring our own?
Thanks
Verfasst am 1. Juni 2016
As of September 2017 I have to say that the Cafe offers a great selection of hot and cold drinks and food. There's plenty of choice for adults and children alike and the prices are really reasonable. From personal experience I can recommend the Hot chocolate and Cake!

What animals are in the fur experience?
Verfasst am 23. Januar 2016
I think it's a 3 hr experience with a variety of birds, there are more details on the website

The flying experience is fantastic for any age group. It's a wonderful opportunity to get close to the birds, to see their beaks, wings, feathers, talons, and eyes. Also to hear how silently the owls fly and how noisy the raptors can be. No touching though! The handlers make each experience informative and interesting answering all questions with their extensive knowledge.

Hi there, I'd like to know what's the best way to get there from London. Train to Bedford and then? Is there any bus to the center? Many thanks
Verfasst am 3. Juli 2015
HI
The centre is much nearer Cotton End than Wilstead. You can get a bus from Bedford Bus Station to Hitchin which goes through Cotton End. You would want to be dropped off at the southern end of the village near the Wilstead turn on the A600.

I have a 11 month old baby who I would need to bring along to a group 1/2 day experience is this ok?
Verfasst am 25. Mai 2015
Personally I can't see how you would cope if you are handling a bird as well. Best to give them a ring.
