Turbary Woods Owl and Bird of Prey Sanctuary is a pure volunteer based, non profit group of volunteers. The flying display give you the visitors, Children & Adults, the chance to participate in the flying display and have our birds land on your gloved hand as they fly to you for their food. We have a collection of over 80 birds of prey including eagles, hawks, falcons, owls, vultures and more unusual species. All the birds are housed in large open fronted aviaries, sheltered in a woodland setting. We assist conservation and education of these beautiful Birds and we are involved with an average of 50 rescues each year.

Thoroughly enjoyed our day at Turbary Woods today. The sanctuary is right next to a garden centre which has a cafe, which also has toilets. The cafe was reasonably priced and the food was delicious. We were allowed to get really close to the birds and the staff were all friendly and informative and you can see that they are all passionate about the birds. We learnt lots and were encouraged to get involved with the bird display which was really entertaining and interesting, Will definitely visit again, thanks for a great afternoon. Family of four ticket was £18.00, adults £6, children £4 and oap's £4. I think the fees are reasonable as the upkeep of the place must be expensive.

My son had his 9th birthday party with a group of friends. The staff were brilliant from start to finish. The lady (Caz) was enthusiastic and helpful from the minute she answered the phone, when I made the booking, to the moment we left. She (and another member of staff) took over supervising the boys playing while my friend and I had a good catch up in the party room. The food was good and I can't really fault it. My 6 year old has already decided he wants his next birthday party there, as do many of his friends. Great all round.

My fiance purchased the brewery tour as a Christmas present for myself and my father. We thoroughly enjoyed it and were there for about 2 hours. Sample beers were great and we bought more to take home. Phil and Dave are great guys and really knowedgable and easy to talk to.

We recently pitched up and stayed two nights at the Bowland wild boar park camp site. The place is lovely and surrounded by nature. The facilities available were great and included; clean and modern shower/toilet block, fire pits, seating, walking trails and camping pods that looked warm and cosy. Dave and Anona were such great hosts. They were friendly and welcoming and very easy to communicate with. They were very understanding and helpful when my girlfriends car had some troubles close to the entrance to the park which we couldn't have sorted out without their support. Will definitely return at some point in the future :)

My partner and I visited by chance when we were visiting Preston and were delighted with this interesting museum (and great little cafe). There is a well set-out display of historical objects and information surrounding Preston and Lancashire, which we were spent most of our time. Foucault's Pendulum is something that shouldn't be missed. There's a gift shop available if that's of interest, though as I feasted of knowledge (rather than stuff to buy) cannot comment on this in detail.
