Wrap up warm and join us for a magical “must-do” evening event with the world’s most famous nocturnal birds!Winter Owl Evenings are a great idea for an evening out with family or friends, a present for someone special and are a superb way to treat yourself – the memories will last forever!

We start the evening with a mulled wine or hot, spiced apple juice.

We head out to meet the aviary owls – the centre is lit only by lanterns and fairy lights.

Then we head to Xmas Tree Cottage to see some of the tiny owls flying.

After finishing the tour of aviary owls we head to the Owl House Cafe for a 2 course meal.

Finally we see the large owls flying free in the darkness of our woodland flying ground, lit only by torchlight, the highlight of the evening.

This very special evening starts at 7pm prompt and ends at around 9.45pm (ish). The evenings are suitable for children aged 8 and over.

The Owl Evenings run on selected Fridays and Saturdays in October, November and December. We then run more evenings in late January and early February. Please wear warm, sensible clothes, and bring a torch!!

Please note – this is (obviously!) a dark activity. Therefore we ask photographers not to use a flash – which makes taking photos challenging!
