Staying a week at Aigas - with its grounds, rangers, and Sir John and Lady Lucy - is among the most exceptional of my many travel experiences. Think wildlife refuge and rewilding programs rolled into a refurbished Victorian estate led by Sir John Lister-Kaye, well known in the naturalist and conservation circles for his pioneering work.I stayed for a week as part of an educational tour group, and enjoyed each day fully. Through field trips, hikes, and events, I learned a great deal about Scotland's rich history and current efforts to restore biodiversity to the country. The rangers who led our trips were knowledgeable, energetic, and enthusiastic. The modest accommodations adjacent to the estate house were clean and comfortable, with big windows for spotting red squirrels and bird life. The food was creative and fabulous, served in a spectacular dining hall. The garden and grounds were breathtaking. Sir John and Lady Lucy and Hermione were gracious hosts, eager that their guests enjoyed their stay. Make sure to look closely at the center's website, because Aigas is not open to the public. Only to guests who have signed up for its various programs. I'm eyeing the list now for another adventure. Highly recommended.

Comfortable accomodation and excellent food in a superb setting. We were taken out in a minibus every day by young, enthusiastic and incredibly knowledgeable rangers who couldn't do enough for us. The attitude at Aigas is: "If you want anything, just ask". We saw beavers, badgers, wildcats, dolphins and a pine marten, and ccountless birds, but otters and white tailed sea eagles wouldn't cooperate. I was glad I took walking boots as well as trainers. I'm glad I had a camera and a sun hat, and it's well worth hiring Zwarovski binoculars. Agas has come to feel like home, and I shall be back.

We are made to feel so special and very much part of the family and that is one of the reasons why we keep coming back. Ella had to write an essay at school on her favourite place in the world and she wrote about Aigas!
