Programmes By Date - Aigas Field Centre

A truly wonderful experience. If you want to see Scottish wildlife with like-minded people and be treated almost royally by Sir John, Lady Lucinda and their remarkable team then you need look no further. We saw otter, beaver, golden eagle, pine martin and a wide variety of birds and plants whilst under the watchful eyes of the young and talented ranger team. In these days of feigned concern and superficial commitment it was truly an experience to be in the company of a team that really is making a difference to conservation and conservation education. Just read all the other five star reviews as they express their views more eloquently than I. On a more personal note, Lady Lucinda and her catering crew provided excellent food - which was especially welcomed by my wife who is a coeliac (gluten intolerant) and a strict vegetarian – and that is a difficult combination to cater for!

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.

We spent a week at Aigas as part of a Road Scholar program and had a wonderful experience! The programs were carefully presented by Sir John Lister-Kaye and his carefully selected Rangers. The accommodations were rustic but comfortable and the food, overseen by Lady Lucy Lister-Kaye, was delicious and locally sourced. It was an incredible learning opportunity that we highly recommend. If you want to learn about the history, geology, biology and culture of the Scottish Highlands, you will not find a better way to do so.
