We just got home from our trip to the UK and I have to say my favorite place was Xmoor and Lynch farm. Cathy the owner is wonderful and the farm is well run and very clean. We rode horses on the moors with Cathy, she took us on a great ride. What spectacular views. Flying the owls was a... More

This was my first time visiting devon so I wanted to see some 'places of interest' and the Owl and Hawk centre was recommended. The centre itself was in a lovely location which was nice to walk around; the animals, not just the birds of prey, had plenty of space for roaming and were obviously looked after in good care....

I stayed in the Owl and Hawk Centre B&B last weekend. Nice building and location, excellent owls but completely spoiled by the owner who treated us like a massive inconvenience. She also wanted to charge us to go look at the owls on top of paying for the B&B and was pretty passive aggressive. Also when we turned up just... More

Just returned from a fab day, book the taster day at the centre and didn't really know what to expect. But this centre exceeded in every way. Greeted on arrival with coffee and a cake, then walking the alpaca's down to the river, followed by the owl flying display and the chance to take part. We then had a lovely... More

We made the journey down to Exmoor Owl and Hawk Centre after picking up a leaflet at the Golden Coast, where we were staying in Woolacombe. The location of the centre, near to the village of Porlock and surrounded by the beauty of Exmoor, is wonderful. We were very lucky with the weather too, which meant that the second flying... More

We were initially a little wary of doing the Taster Day with a 5 year old, however, our concerns were unfounded. We started the day with an alpaca walk with the wonderful Lissie and my son was delighted to help walk 'polo' the alpaca. He then got to groom the shetland ponies and donkeys. We then proceeded to a superb... More

Pat and I visited a few days ago. We stayed one night and then went for a hack in the surrounding hills followed by flying one of their tawny owls! Totally blown away! West Lynch Farm is a beautiful 15th Century farmhouse set in idyllic countryside. The hosts Cathy and Rod could not do enough for us and obviously engage... More

visited on a chilly day but well worth it.The care given to the owls etc is excellent,young chap who gave the owl exhibition was extremely knowledgable and obviously enjoys his job. Beautiful setting,very interesting and good fun. Followed this with yummy homemade soup in the farmhouse-which is quirky and absolutely lovely with friendly helpful staff
