Programmes By Date - Aigas Field Centre

With high expectations from all the great TA reviews, I went to Aigas as part of a Road Scholar group - and Aigas met and exceeded all those expectations. My previous 2 weeks in Scotland had been as part of a photo tour that was long on photo ops, but extremely light on information about history, geology, lore, ecology, etc etc. The wonderfully trained, articulate and enthusiastic rangers at Aigas filled in all the gaps and then some. Sir John's lecture about the history of the Highlands brought the Jacobite Rebellion and so much more into sharp focus, with application to US history and today's world situations. I could have listened for another hour. Lady Lucy's concern for the needs of her guests and the dietary peculiarities of each one make the meals a delight, and she, Hermione and the rest of the staff make it clear they will do their best to make everyone's stay as wonderful as they can. And everything is done with such ease and grace. Thanks to all for a wonderful stay. I am sending my friends (and maybe will sneak back with one of them)!

A fabulous place. Surrounded by beautiful landscape and wonderful wildlife. The hides with badgers and pine marten are a real bonus. Friendly and helpful staff. Fabulous food with the best haggis I've ever tasted. I've visited many places around the World but very few can compare with Aigas. It ticks all the boxes for accommodation combined with wildlife. I cannot wait until I return.
