Owls by Candlelight

Join Eden Falconry for a magical evening encounter with the Owls in the medieval castle.

During this fantastic experience, you will see a variety of owls and witness these beautiful birds demonstrating their natural abilities, including flying in the Castle’s impressive Banquetting Hall. The evening will begin with a welcome by our team of expert falconers who will guide you throughout the duration of the experience.

During the session, you will have the chance to meet the feathered members of the flying team, and also have the opportunity to fly the Barn Owl to your gloved fist. Enjoy learning about each bird’s habitat, prey and their survival in the wild, together with their individual characters.

Please arrive at 6pm for a 6.30pm start. The evening will finish around 8.30pm.

Tickets include a hot drink and a slice of cake on arrival.

Please note: this event will take place inside the Castle in the Banquetting Hall so is unfortunately not suitable for wheelchairs due to the staircase access.

Limited tickets available to ensure all guests have time to fly and handle the owls. Not suitable for children under 8 years of age.
