The Hawking Centre is owned by Leigh and Jo Holmes, Falconers and Television presenters and managed by expert falconers Mark Brattle and Aaron Mooring, running from Doddington Place Gardens in Kent.

The Centre is now based at this exclusive private estate after years of being based at the historic Leeds Castle. We primarily run Falconry Experience days seven days a week and give Bird of Prey flying demonstrations on a Sunday afternoon throughout the spring and summer. The demonstrations take place on the formal Lawn and include lots of family participation.
