This beautiful country house in Kingston Bagpuize is located in the tranquil Vale of the White Horse, only 15 minutes from Oxford.
Set in 12 acres of mature trees and magnificent gardens, Fallowfields offers an exquisite retreat. Delicious dishes in the award-winning restaurant are created with free-range produce from Fallowfields Farm and fresh ingredients grown in the hotel’s kitchen gardens.
The individual rooms are elegant, comfortable and beautifully appointed. All rooms have wonderful power showers and some have spa baths.
Fallowfields Country House Hotel is set in twelve magnificent acres of superb gardens, lawns, meadows and an orchard. It provides a restful backdrop against which you can take tea or in which you can wander at peace with the world.
We have ten beautiful hawks, three Harrises, a Red Tail and a Cooper's, at various stages of their flying training, who have been providing a fascinating insight for our guests into this ancient practice.
Throughout the day, they sit contentedly on our lawn, by their very presence keeping rabbit and pigeon out of our two acre kitchen garden and orchards. If this isn't green pest control .....
They are flown at various times of the day, often in the early evening as our guest's arrive and are taking a drink on the terrace whilst preparing themselves for dinner. Observe their innate intelligence as well as their obviously strong relationship with their handler.
For many, watching these magnificent raptors and perhaps a few minutes talk with James our falconer, Anthony, the owner, or Alexi his early teenage daughter, is enough. For many others, the opportunity to fly a hawk for themselves is an immensely rewarding experience and perhaps the opportunity of a life time.
A half hour's flying lesson is £30.00. An hour £45.00. You will be closer to one of nature's most beautiful creatures than you ever thought possible. You will feel the power of her talons through your falconer's glove. You will experience the thrill of launching her from your gloved fist. If you feel confident, you will also experience the immense high as she loops silently toward you, inches from the ground, and then at the last minute soars to your fist to take the proffered titbit.
