Lakeland Bird of Prey Centre

Situated in the walled garden of Lowther Castle, surrounded by unspoilt parkland, visitors are able to see over 150 falcons, hawks, eagles, buzzards and owls from this country and abroad.

These delightful surroundings are a perfect backdrop to the birds displayed and flown in the sport of falconry, and that are exercised daily at the flying demonstrations. The birds are displayed inside the walled area, which provides an ideal location for the aviaries which are designed to suit each bird’s individual needs.

The flying birds are housed in weathering shelters, sat on blocks, falconry fashion. The birds are flown three times daily, weather permitting, a rare chance to see these magnificent birds flown free.

Daily April – Oct 11am – 5pm, except for the weekend of 5 – 8 May
