Our average rating on Google is 4.5 stars Anthony R 5 Stars: June 2024 I was keen to see some part of Grantown as I had passed very close on a mystery tour decades ago. One coach headed for Grantown whilst the one I was on headed for Tomintoul. The museum is located near a small car park where I was dropped off before the rest of our party went for a nearby walk. The timing was also good as it is a small museum and I was not rushed to get through the place. Despite being small, like all other museums it had taken a lot of hard work to collect the items that were on display. I got round in around 30 minutes. Well worth the price, which helps to support the place. Time well spent here for me. Bob H 5 Stars: June 2024 Charming little museum telling the story of Grantown and its founder. Friendly & knowledgeable staff on hand. Places like this are little gems of information and deserve support. Chris R 5 Stars: June 2024 A great museum with a lovely collection of local items about the town's origins and very helpful volunteer staff. Allan M 5 Stars: October 2023 I visited the Grantown Museum on the last weekend of October just before it closed for the season. I had visited a few museums and I thought this one was very good, plenty to read up on. The building is obviously a former school and the rooms are compact inside. There is a five minute introductory film and then you can take your time. They have a small gift shop which was well stocked. I believe the museum reopens in March or April. I paid £5 entry which I thought was very good value for money. Mark C 4 Stars: October 2023 Nice centre. Lots of history and interesting displays. Lovely shop, clean facilities, friendly staff. Parking is ample and easy with access for everyone. I would recommend visiting Sven A 5 Stars: October 2023 A small but very nice and informative museum about the history of Grantown-on-Spey and the Highlands. The current exhibition on the painter Landseer is very nice, with good info on the background of his paintings. Quite a few original Landseer paintings are on display. |
