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

Just returned from our first trip to Aigas, and it certainly won't be our last! Thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and are so grateful for all that we saw and shared. We were unbelievably fortunate to see so much wildlife; certainly set a very high standard for future trips! Loved being so close to dolphins, pine marten, badger, woodpeckers and too many other birds to mention. Beautiful countryside too. The wonderful welcome extended by our hosts, Sir John, Lady Lucy, and Warwick was beyond expectation and made the experience extra special. The food was amazing. Particularly grateful to Lucy for catering so well for my dietary needs and for the wonderful birthday surprise she created for my husband James - special & heartfelt thanks for that. All the staff were lovely and couldn't do enough to help, and in terms of the rangers/education staff, they were so incredibly knowledgable and eager to ensure all the trips/etc were maximised. We enjoyed our little cabin too and the tranquility of the whole place; also, for the most part being away from emails, TV, Internet, etc, it was lovely escapism. It's hard to find suitable words to adequately express just how much we loved our time at Aigas, suffice to say that we miss it, and can't wait to return. Huge thanks again to everyone who helped give us such a fabulous time.
