It's not easy to describe this place as it is so unique. If you like being out doors and you love nature then you will adore this place. We stayed here for the wildlife week and got to see a lot of different birds, and other various wildlife across much of this area of Scotland. The estate has Hides on it and you can spend evenings and early mornings watching Beavers, Badgers and Pine Martin. However you won't get much spare time as they keep you really busy. Trips out are in groups on a minibus. Our group was with 6 lovely Canadians and we got on really well. Who you are with will make so much difference to your enjoyment of the holiday. The Rangers that take you out each day are knowledgable and friendly. Thanks to Amy You don't need to be really fit as walking is limited to gentle strolls whilst watching for Golden Eagles!. Breakfast and Dinner are taken communally in the hall. Wonderful home cooked food so you will put on weight. Packed lunches are supplied on days out. Evenings often include talks or Whiskey tasting or Hide trips. This is not a hotel. The accommodation is in cabins with your own bathroom but shared lounge facilities. This is what let's this place down. They are clean but very basic, but hey you won't get much time to sit around in your cabin at all. Remember to take soaps, shampoo and other personal items. If you ask you can borrow a hair dryer. What makes this place is the passion of the owners John and Lucy Lister-Kaye and their son Warwick. They are there on mornings and evenings to get involved and tell annecdotes. They do other special trips like Gardens or Fungi but this place is all about getting close to nature and is a true experience

I just spent a week at Aigas as part of a Road Scholar program. The Highlands are spectacular--and what you learn about them at Aigas will surprise you and give you pause to reflect on your interaction with the natural world. Sir John and Lady Lucy will make you feel like an honored guest at their beautiful country home, surrounded by exceptional gardens and comfortable guest cabins. The ranger guides are personable, enthusiastic, and highly-knowledgeable young people. During our group's trip, any differences in hiking abilities between the guests were quickly and graciously accommodated, as were special food requests. And speaking of food, one of the (unexpected!) highlights of this trip: fabulous, gourmet-quality Highland meals served under the watchful eye of the ever-gracious Lady Lucy and her efficient staff. These incredible meals enjoyed in the Great Hall of the manor will be among your fondest memories.

I spent a week at Aigas primarily to bird watch and enjoy the nature. The gardens, walks and the whole plantation is lush with vegetation, lakes and many paths for walking. The cabins were very comfortable and clean and the main mansion is in itself beautifully kept and open to guests all the time. Every evening before dinner there are free drinks and the food is home cooked everyday by Lady Lucy and her staff. The rangers are a group of lovely young people who are very knowledgeable about everything and are very helpful nothing is too much for them.They always have a smile on their faces. I have only good things to say about Aigas and spent a wonderfully magical week there.
