Exmoor Falconry and Animal Farm is a unique visitor attraction within Exmoor National Park where the animals come out to meet you. It is huge fun with interaction at every level. Handle, marvel, discover and even fly the birds for charity.

There are beautiful 15th century farmyards in a unique National Trust farm on the Holnicote Estate with wonderful views, landscaped gardens, herb gardens and herb products, trout pool, wildlife ponds and nature trails. At many times of the year there are a number of different baby animals to feed and enjoy, and all of the animals are friendly and full of appeal.

The Flying Displays are dynamic and interactive, you can delight in the world of the trained bird of prey, and enjoy the owls sitting at your table, participate with the hawks being flown and marvel at the speed and agility of the falcons in flight. There are hawking experiences of a lifetime on hawk walks of one hour or half a day in spectacular countryside.
