Programmes By Date - Aigas Field Centre

Comfortable accomodation and excellent food in a superb setting. We were taken out in a minibus every day by young, enthusiastic and incredibly knowledgeable rangers who couldn't do enough for us. The attitude at Aigas is: "If you want anything, just ask". We saw beavers, badgers, wildcats, dolphins and a pine marten, and ccountless birds, but otters and white tailed sea eagles wouldn't cooperate. I was glad I took walking boots as well as trainers. I'm glad I had a camera and a sun hat, and it's well worth hiring Zwarovski binoculars. Agas has come to feel like home, and I shall be back.

Spent 6 nigyts at Aigas last week. The guides were great covering a wide variety of topics around wildlife and the history of the areas though which we passed. We visitited lots of places where they tried to find the wildlife we wanted to see. They varied the itineranry to suit us. The moth trap was really interesting. The evening hide which was lit for photography was stunning and we saw badger and pine marten on each of the three nights we used the hide. We only saw one crested tit and no crossbills which was a shame. The accomodation was great and we could have self catered if we wanted to - but the area for eating inside the house was socially distanced so we didn't need to. From a Covid perspective we felt very safe and everyone was following guidelines etc.
