I can't speak for Colin, but I've been had a couple of visits there run by Andy Rouse and only have good things to say about it! One of the visits was an AF tuning day where we got in with the foxes, wildcats and had lots of flying from the Tawny and Barn Owl. The other trip was purely for photographing the owls both static and flying.
Great place, highly recommended.

I would recommend it; the keepers are really helpful and friendly. It's a small group so there is enough room for everyone to get good pictures. You are very close to the animals which is nice and the centre is closed to the public so there aren't any distractions for the animals. Even though I was close to the animals I still used my 100-400 zoom most of the time apart from the Field Mouse and hedgehog when I was using a 100m macro.
