Programmes By Date - Aigas Field Centre

We spent a Wildlife week at Aigas. We could not have wished for a better week. Much of the credit for this goes to the staff. The Rangers who took us out each day were all personable and knowledgeable and added greatly to the experience of seeing and understanding the wildlife and natural environment. Such amazing young talent. The catering and house staff were ever attentive and friendly. Nothing ever seemed too much for them. Accommodation was comfortable and clean. Meals and catering generally was outstanding. Such a good selection of single malts too!

My sister and I joined the Highland House Party on the last week of the 2011 programme. Although the weather was wet and windy, the warmth of the hospitality was superb. The 7 young rangers were outstanding - kind, caring, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable about the history, flora and fauna of the area. Our days were full and varied, and the food - all locally sourced - was excellent. When we left we felt that we had become part of the Lister-Kaye family! We can't wait to return. The ceilidh on the final evening just rubber-stamped' a truly memorable week. I am now re-reading Sir John's books, and have already used some of Lady Lucy's recipes!

This was our first Road Scholar trip and we have already put a deposit down on our next trip. I particularly liked the small group model, even though this "small group" consisted of 32 people - a nice mix of former professions and interests. The Aigas Field Center and Rangers were welcoming. Everyone was personable and well informed. The food was spectacular. There was a good balance of activities. The Road Scholar model was indeed "value added" beyond what I could have planned myself.
