Programmes By Date - Aigas Field Centre

Absolutely fantastic. The accommodation was clean, comfortable and well appointed, the food was amazing and the hospitality faultless. The rangers' knowledge was extensive and they were as helpful and informative as it was possible to be. The icing on the cake was being accompanied by Johnny Kingdom who brought expertise and a lot of humour to the week-end. The prices look expensive but as absolutely everything is included, it is fantastic value, if you are wildlife or conservation enthusiast, a visit to Aigas is a must.

Aigas is such a special place: I first heard of it through reading Song of the Rolling Earth - a gift from a friend - and was determined to go there one day and I spent a week there in early June. I loved the whole ambience, the food, the warmth, the accommodation etc, and was impressed with the enthusiasm and knowledge of the rangers. It was a pleasure to meet Sir John and Lady Lucy Lister Kaye who have made Aigas into a home from home for their guests. I am no expert in the field of wildlife/conservation but I am very interested and I learned a lot from the rangers and from my companions (i.e. the other guests!). I was not quite as dedicated as some of the other guests in getting up early/staying up half the night but I saw otters, pine marten, golden eagles, hares, cuckoos and a red squirrel, to mention but a few, plus I'm beginning to identify many more birds, some of which I'd never even heard of before! I loved it and hope to return before too long.

simply one of the best experiences I have ever had at Aigas Field Centre. The Programme itself was wonderful and covered almost every habitat possible. Adding a visit to Strathbeg was a stroke of genius!
