Fox Trap Hire

The fox, Vulpes vulpes, is a member of the dog family and there is a long tradition of conflict between the chicken keeper and the fox. The fox has been here for centuries and was a contemporary of the wolf. The wolf was hunted to extinction, but an anomaly led to the survival of the fox.

Learn Humane Culling Technique

Alison is a DEFRA registered poultry slaughter woman and we run courses to teach you how to humanely kill a chicken. It could be because the chicken is injured, an unwanted cockerel, or a chicken destined to be the next meal.

You will be taught to kill a chicken quickly and humanely in a way that you will be able to use easily at home.

Testimonials

13th Aug 2012

Just to say that we enjoyed our time sausage making with you very much. The sausages are curing in the fridge, but the rest of the meat was formed into burgers and grilled on the bbq tonight. They were really wonderful and even my vegetarian son could not resist taking a bite and pronounced them as tasting like "proper" pork rather than some of the concoctions you buy from the shops.

We can't wait to have the sausages tomorrow.

Kind regards

Going on Holiday?

Away from home for a while?


We have indoor and outdoor hutches for Rabbits and Guinea Pigs, just bring your pet and we do the rest. We even store your carry cage until your return.

Pets with their own portable cage such as Hamsters, Rats, Mice, Gerbils, Degus, Chinchilas, Budgies and Parrots come in their cages and live in the dining room. We can also accomodate chickens and reptiles (not together).

We provide all the food and bedding your pets need during their stay with us. Weather permitting, rabbits and guinea pigs have access to outside runs; hamsters get exercise in a ball. This is 'Centre Parks' for pets!


To ensure that we are here when you drop off or collect your pet(s) boarding in and out is after 6.30pm on a weekday and after 11am on a Saturday. We are closed on Sundays.

This is a service we happily provide to make your holiday plans easier. Unfortunately we are unable to take ex-battery chickens unless they are fully feathered up and we cannot take hamsters in cages that have tunnels coming out of the main cage as shown in the above picture.

Payment is due on collection at the end of your holiday and may be made either cash or by cheque. There is not a deposit to be paid, but if you turn into a 'no show' where we have not been advised that the booking is cancelled, then any future bookings will be refused.
