Programmes By Date - Aigas Field Centre

Spent 6 nigyts at Aigas last week. The guides were great covering a wide variety of topics around wildlife and the history of the areas though which we passed. We visitited lots of places where they tried to find the wildlife we wanted to see. They varied the itineranry to suit us. The moth trap was really interesting. The evening hide which was lit for photography was stunning and we saw badger and pine marten on each of the three nights we used the hide. We only saw one crested tit and no crossbills which was a shame. The accomodation was great and we could have self catered if we wanted to - but the area for eating inside the house was socially distanced so we didn't need to. From a Covid perspective we felt very safe and everyone was following guidelines etc.

Spent a super week at Aigas honing photography skills under the expert eye of Nature Photographer extraordinaire Laurie Campbell. His knowledge is second to none, the wildlife was amazing - even having to get up at 3.30m to see Black Grouse Leck! They have a baited Pine Martin and Badger hide on site enabling you to get really really close without disturbing them. Comfortable accommodation, tasty dinners, super hosts, great team - Rangers so helpful, obliging and experts in their own rights. Thoroughly recommend if you care about wildlife and the countryside as they have a wide range of holidays on offer.

Aigas is a very special and - to me - a unique place to stay Beautiful surroundings, excellent variety of activities, wonderful hospitality, good food. The Lister-Kaye family and staff are so welcoming and helpful Not only are the rangers well qualified In their chosen field, but knowledgeable about the local areas visited, as well as being delightful company, able to multi-task, and with good social skills. I will be returning for a third visit in 2016, and also joined an Aigas trip to Costa Rica. That speaks for itself.
