I have loved all the organised courses I did at Aigas (Aigas Wildlife Spring & Summer) but found I was kept SO busy visiting other parts of Scotland, that I never really explored the Field Centre itself. I therefore asked to tack 3 days 4 nights onto the end of their wonderful Outer Hebrides trip (summer 2010). I visited the Loch Hide very early one morning and was spoilt to see not only 4 of the EuropeanBeavers out and about, but also an Osprey at the Loch. I had a wonderful encounter with a big group of of lovely birds in the plantation. I saw a family of Wrens with young and Treecreepers with the help of a ranger. I was privilaged to see Roe Deer and have VERY close encounters with other Birds at the hill top hide. If a course is being run at the same time as your customised visit you are able to join the group for certain activities, e.g. Pine Marten and Badger nightime hide visit, etc. As always the food produced under Lady Lucy's guidance was simply scrumptious, and the family and rangers were VERY welcoming. This is an experience not to be missed. At the beginning of April 2011, I am again visiting but this time I am joined by a friend from Ohio.

As soon as I drove into the car park to be met by a smiling ranger I had just the best time. The food was excellent, all requests catered for without problem. The rangers were great company, very engaging and informative and although I knew the area a little they showed me places I had never seen before. The mini-buses were roomy and comfortable and we were well looked after with stops for drinks etc. Accomodation was clean and comfortable, no single supplements either. By the end of the week I had logged more than 80 species of bird and lots of mammals including a whale and fabulous views of otters. The company was varied in terms of age and wildlife experience but we all got on together. i just had the most relaxing time and can't wait to go back!

The holiday was fantastic. Kept busy all day and into early evening. No sleep with so much wildlife to see. A photographers dream trip. All the team are brilliant. Thank you Ed for your patience. Lady Lucinda for her wonderful food and allowing us access to her home. The dedication of all the Aigas staff to make sure that the clients could experience the wonders of this amazing place. Thank you. I will be back next year and bringing three friends with me - look out Aigas.
