Thorpe Farm Centre - A taste of the country and a great day out for all of the family.

Falconry Centre

Here at Thorpe Farm we have created one of the most impressive falconry centre's in the north of England. We are proud to be working with Phil and Tracy Gibbon of Ridgeside Falconry, who are well known in the area for their outside falconry displays. Their professionalism has helped us to create one of the most stunning centre's in the country.

Down by the lakeside you will find the picturesque avairies containing magnificent birds from around the world including the Ruppels Griffin Vulture with an enormous wingspan of 7ft.
Other birds include Turkey vultures, Lanner Falcons, Tawny Owls, Perigrine falcons, European Eagle Owls and many more!

Flying displays last between 20 & 30 minutes where the sheer majesty of these birds can be seen in all their glory ensuring a fantastic demonstration from their handlers, Phil and Tracy Gibon.

Flying Displays Daily (weather permitting)

The falconry centre offer Falconry Experiences & Handling Days. Contact us for more details..
