I concur with the praise from others for the standard week at Aigas. This is a special place. Every interaction with the staff at all levels was wonderful: * office staff -- Sheila and Marjorie * the rangers -- knowledgeable, cheerful, resourceful * the owners -- Sir John and Lady Lucy * even the kitchen staff (sorry I did not learn their names) We chose to extend our stay and do an extra day after the Highland House Party. They assigned ranger Jenny as our guide. She met with us a few times early in the week to understand what we were looking for. She came back with a proposal to go to the Cairngorms Mountain area. This was not on our itinerary for Highland House party, so we were pleased to see another part of Scotland. The 2 main attractions that she chose for us were: * Highland Folk Museum -- contains a 1700s village that was used for several scenes in Outlander -- really fascinating. This place also contains history and culture from other historic eras, but we did not take the time to see it all -- more for the next trip. * Cairngorms Mountain ski area -- this time of year covered with pink and purple heather in bloom. It is also a good spot for the Ring Ouzel -- a bird that we did not manage to see earlier in the trip. We found out that Jenny had spent the previous day scouting out the route -- checking timings, and toilet stops. That is emblematic for the level attention to detail to get when booking a trip at Aigas. Come and experience the joy.

Aigas provides unique wildlife experiences for all ages in a stunning setting. Away from it all, there are pine martens, red squirrels, badgers, otters and beavers. Ospreys feed on the Loch, golden eagles soar overhead and and crested tits frequent the bird feeders. The staff are knowledgeable and ever so keen to share their passion for the wildlife with the guests. You feel more like a member of the Aigas family than a guest, though. There is so much to do and to see on site and in the local area. You will not want to leave this beautiful wildlife paradise!

It is the second time that I have been to Aigas and it was even better. The facilities, staff, food and the estate are wonderful. The quality of the food is superb and nothing is too much trouble to cater for specialist dietary requirements. I go for the wildlife and it never fails to captivate. The evening hide for the pine martens is brilliant and has now attracted a badger as a regular visitor. The rangers are well prepared and know where to take you to ensure you maximise on wildlife viewing. Even the highest quality of equipment, in the Swarovski scopes, ensure that you see what is around no matter what the distance. Well done, Aigas. You go from strength to strength in helping to build peopl's appreciation for wildlife and it's great to know that our visits help to contribute to it's conservation.
