Had a fantastic time yesterday (04/10/2020) was very friendly welcome by the staff and they pointed of a great walk before feeding time. After taking with the staff we found out they are not funded by the government and solely rely on public funding so £5 is very cheap, they do have a wee donation tin (hint hint lol...). At 2pm they feed the kites and there was upwards of a 80 of them it is something to see and would highly recommend, my wife and I will definitely be back. Big thanks to the staff for an unforgettable visit.

Magical to see all the kites being fed. About 120 all swooping down & circling the area. Masks to be worn inside currently (Oct 2020), coffee shop & toilet facilities available & a family friendly loop walk through a nature reserve (20 min wander) would totally recommend.

This is a great experience. Take a good camera that can capture fast moving objects, these birds fly fast as they swoop in for food. You can take alot of photos and end up with just a couple of good ones and alot of blurred ones.

Loved this place went three days in a row, just amazing display. You need to be patient they do not come down straight away to feed but it is worth the wait . Home made cake is delicious and the staff are so friendly and helpful.
