Welcome to our Web site

We are a family run business, based in Oxenhope near the Bronte village of Haworth in West Yorkshire. We offer you the opportunity to learn about falconry and to have first hand experience of handling and flying birds of prey. We have hawks, falcons, kestrels and owls. We are not open to the public and visiting us is strictly by appointment only.

We provide personal tuition with our Experience Days and great days out in the Yorkshire Dales hunting with our birds. We are now able to provide training for the Lantra Beginning Falconry Award. Our assessor is Sandra Johnson who is also the proprietor of the business. More information about the Lantra Award can be found on the Lantra page of this web site.

We are pleased to announce that Barbara Royle is now working in association with us, enabling us to provide a wider range of falconry services.

Barbara is an experienced falconer and a Lantra Assessor. We are now able to offer pest control.

We have various bed and breakfast accommodations listed on our ‘useful links’ page. They are all local to us who will provide you with somewhere to stay if you have to travel some distance to come to us or if you want to make a weekend of your visit.

We cater for weddings, schools, educational requirements, birthdays, corporate events, art groups and photography clubs. We can also provide any clubs, or groups with a guest speaker.

We attend shows with our static and flying displays.
