Scottish Wildlife Hide – Cuckoo Hide

cuckoo

Contact Details

  

Description

Only open for a short period in May the cuckoo hide has been very successful over the past few years although wildlife is unpredictable and a no show is just bad luck – no refunds are given although, because of the short photographic session (1.15 – 3.15) it is possible to have a combination day just in case.

There are a couple of hides and the main hide has plates for gimbal heads provided.

Parking in the lay-by and a short walk to the hides.

NO toilet facilities. NO bean bags provided.
