Nestled in the scenic Kent countryside at two secluded locations featuring formal lawns, woodland, and parkland, The Hawking Centre allows you to spend a day flying birds of prey. After watching an introductory video and flying demonstrations, join one of the falconry courses. Suitable for all ages, the courses can take from one to five days and include a light buffet lunch in a tearoom overlooking the gardens.

  Had an amazing time here. My wife bought me an experience to take out the birds and it was great. The guide was really knowledgeable and really cared for the birds, owning several himself. Food was included in the package and was really good Would love to head back there soon, although with two young kids now I would be worried as some of the birds were massive!!

  During a week in London my family ventured out to fly these amazon birds. We all enjoyed our full day experience. The birds were fantastic and the staff was incredibly knowledgeable. The setting made it even better. Definitely the highlight our trip!
