About Screech Owl Sanctuary

The Screech Owl Sanctuary was founded in 1990 and is situated in mid Cornwall on the edge of the Goss Moor Nature Reserve.  Family-owned, the Sanctuary has a mission to demonstrate its passion for the natural environment and to encourage others to value the natural world we all share through its efforts in rehabilitation, conservation and education. 

The Sanctuary has one of the largest collection of owls in the south west with over 70 owls ranging over 30 different species from all over the world. Included in your admission price, come and learn about our owls and other animals in our regular educational talk and feed sessions, get up close and personal with our majestic birds of prey at the twice daily flying displays. Our other residents include lemurs, raccoons, meerkats, alpacas, emus, wallabies, fox, ravens and storks. Get an insight into our conservation work, enjoy a home-cooked meal from the tea room and let the children roam free in the outdoor playground. 

Amazing personal encounters with our owls and other animals can be booked for an additional charge, see website for details. Choose to meet our owls, foxes, meerkats, lemurs or wallabies.

There is a large free car park at the Sanctuary. Pre booking is not required for general admission. Dogs are not allowed on site other than pre-booked assistance dogs.
