Just returned from a fabulous morning at The Hawking Centre. I did the Big 4 experience with falconer Reece. It really was a terrific session, which included flying a vulture, a bald eagle, Chilean eagle & an eagle owl. Reece was an excellent host, friendly, informative & I learnt a great deal. So thrilling to have these magnificent birds so close & flying to your glove. Highly recommend. Thank you Reece for a great morning.

Had a VIP day bought as a present from the wife. What a fantastic day it was. From the moment you arrive until the end of the day was fantastic. We flew 15 plus different birds and the knowledge of the staff was incredible. I'd definitely recommend the experience to anyone who enjoys this beautiful birds.

What a fantastic half day falconry experience at the hawking centre Ashford. The leader was very knowledgeable and experienced. The grounds were beautiful. Loved every minute of meeting the awesome birds. Definitely recommend. Superb gift. I might even go back it was so enjoyable. Thankyou the hawking centre.

Reece is so knowledgeable & chilled & his passion for birds shines through. Thank you for a brilliant day. I shall return.

We visited The Hawking Centre as a gift to my husband for our anniversary. From start to finish this was a wonderful experience. Our guide, Reece was absolutely brilliant. So knowledgeable, funny and made you feel at ease with some pretty big birds!! 10/10 experiance, would recommend to anyone to elevate your experiance at Eastwell Manor or just for a fun trip!

I bought the full day experience for my wife’s birthday. We had a fantastic day with our expert , Reece , who was knowledgeable and passionate about his subject. The full day experience means you fly lots of birds that all have different traits and personalities, and you learn so much about them from Reece , who is very patient and understanding with the birds and us !!! Lunch at the manor was lovely and it’s quite nice to have an hours break to reflect on the mornings activities …,.all in all , a great experience

My husband brought himself and I a half day experience at christmas 2022, because of work schedules we couldnt book till September 2023, but it was certainly worth the wait. Our Falconer Reece met us and a small group of others, including a young child with her parents in hotel waiting area. Led us all down to where birds all live, the area was wonderfully kempt and avaries were all decent sized and clean.. After doing all the necessary paper work for healh and safety we were all given a falconer glove to wear. Big old things they are... Reece then proceeded to talk to all of us while getting out first beautiful bird for us to fly, weighing it to ensure it was healthy to fly then we all proceeded out to flying ground just outside the avairy walls. We had Five birds in total for the experience, 2 were flown around just outside avairy walls, 1 was flown around the old golf course, 1 in the garden, the 5th and biggest bird, a Bald Eagle was just sat on our hands one person at a time. Weather was very hot that day and Reece was making sure the birds were not going to suffer which is absolutely important to these magnificent birds, I would highly recommend anyone, young, old, small or big to go and try one of these experiences. So much better than watching then in a large cage at a zoo where you cannot interact with them. Thank you very much Reece for a fantastic experience. x

Had a fantastic day watching and flying birds in beautiful surroundings. Rained heavily all day but didn’t notice it after a while. Reece was a brilliant, knowledgeable and informative guide and the eagles, owls, vulture and hawks were just amazing. Thank you.
