moreA visit to Auchindrain is a chance to see a forgotten way of Highland life. Auchindrain is the last surviving Highland farm township, a type of settlement found across Scotland from the Middle Ages until the late 18th century. Social and economic change arising from industrialisation and new ways of farming then saw most townships improved out of existence, but Auchindrain survived until the 1960s as the last of its kind. The site is now run as a museum and visitors can explore the land and buildings with the assistance of our interactive guide-tablets. Auchindrain, which is run by an independent charity, is a conservation work in progress. It is a Category A listed site that remains proudly authentic and true to history. Gritty realism and the ever-changing Highland weather are not for everyone, so please visit us properly prepared, ready to learn about and understand the hard every day life of our ancestors.less

  We made two special journeys (of almost an hour each way) to visit the museum. Despite the roadside board saying that it was open, the museum was closed on both occasions. On the second visit, a local... more
