Camel Riding for Two
What image does the phrase 'camel riding' conjure up? Deserts, shimmering heat, pyramids in the background? Think again. Camel riding has come to England - it's fun, relaxing, and you get a cracking view from up there. You'll start off with some refreshments and a welcome brief before you go and meet the camels. After saying hello and having a chance to get used to them, you'll be shown how to put a bridle and a saddle on your camels. Then you and your trusty steeds will head out on a peaceful ride through lovely countryside, accompanied by instructors. Camels are friendly and inquisitive, and each has its own quirky personality, so we're sure that you'll make new pals. Your camels will be led at all times by an instructor and you'll also learn a bit about their history and habits (the camels' that is, not your instructor's). At the end of your trek you can reward your camel with a groom and a feed and then enjoy a glass of champagne with some strawberries before you say goodbye.

More Information... | Falconry Day
Get up close and personal with some of nature's magnificent and regal birds of prey. You'll learn all about the art of falconry and have a chance to try it for yourself. You'll spend a full day at the falconry centre, finding out all about the birds and getting plenty of time to experience falconry first hand. You'll start with a tour, where you'll meet the eagles, harris hawks, falcons and owls and learn what makes a hawk a hawk, a falcon a falcon and an owl an owl. Then you'll get expert tuition in the art of falconry, with time to handle the birds so that you get comfortable with them and they can get comfortable with you. What happens next depends on the time of year: during the game season from September to February, you can take the birds out into the hills hunting for live quarry. Between March and August, you'll go for a 'hawk walk' with the birds, flying them but not hunting (you can always choose this option in the hunting season if you'd rather not hunt). Lunch is included.
