Programmes By Date - Aigas Field Centre

From the time you arrive until you leave you are treated like family, royal family by Sr. John and Lady Lucy. The cabins in the woods are cozy and well appointed. The meals, mostly prepared by Lady Lucy are so wonderful you don't want to leave. A purchase of her cook book is a must! It is a beautiful central location to just enjoy the environment or to take day trip which they will arrange for you. Don't miss the wild life siting in the Hide House or the readings by Sr. John, a naturalist and author.

Scenery was beautiful; mountains, farm land, multiple lochs, streams and waterfall. We toured various historic sites close to Aigas in addition to walks around the property. Saw some wildlife (3 types of deer), small dolphins, various shore birds, raptors and red squirrels. At Aigas went to their hides ( blinds) to view animals. Saw a pine marten and Scottish Wild Cat. They are part of a large conservation program working to restore the wild cat population in the wild. A badger was seen on another night in the hide. The Aigas Rangers lead the day trips and other activities. All are very well educated as they explain historical events and sites as well as telling us about the natural environment and various plants and animals. All are very nice and able to answer questions. Meals were all at Aigas for the week I stayed and were very good.

I spent a fabulous week photographing wildlife and landscapes under the watchful eye of Laurie Campbell. I enjoyed close encounters with an amazing range of Scottish wildlife and the hospitality was second to none. My photography improved significantly within a very short space of time and I would highly recommend Aigas and this programme to anyone with a deep love of natural history and an ethical approach to its management.
