The International Centre for Birds of Prey
The International Centre for Birds of Prey: Described by one visitor recently as a Hidden Gem of a place, the Centre houses over 250 birds of prey, eagles, hawks, owls, vultures, kites, buzzards and falcons. There are three superb flying demonstrations per day, every one different. Wonderful Gardens to enjoy, walks through the woods, field and ponds. Sheltered aviaries to view the many birds. A pleasant, reasonably priced cafe and shop, and great photo opportunities with no wire in the way in the Hawk Walk. ICBP is the oldest bird of prey centre in the UK with an international reputation for its conservation work. Well worth a visit for all ages. Handling experience days run with hawks, owls and falcons for those who want to get closer to the birds and fly them. Photography courses to help you with your images. Baby birds to see in the breeding season. Special evening events, Owl evenings in the winter months, a place definitely not to be missed. Ignore the weather forecasts - they will be wrong! Look at a map, get to Newent on main roads and follow the signs! If you are coming from Newent, the satnav will announce your arrival 600 metres before you reach the Centre - just keep going.
