What visitors say
Located at the old Victorian train station or what it used to be, to be more precise. We were unable to enter in the museum itself but building with its small businesses and cafe is worth a visit.

What a lovely little find. Eventhough it is a small museum there's enough in it to spend a bit of time. Seeing the old toys will interest any generation. Young or old. There is also a bit of information about the history of Strathpeffer. Its location at the old converted railway station is lovely. Aswell as the museum there's a couple of other shops. With a walk around the garden searching for all the fairy doors. Theres plenty of parking. Well worth a visit!

Interesting place but limited opening hours as staffed by volunteers. The entrance on the platform has a step however they will open a wheelchair accessible door to the rear if needed.

Small mueum and well worth the visit. There is a lot of interesting information in it. It is suitable for disability entrance. It's set on an old railway station line, with a reasonable cafe. You can sit in or out There are two craft shops. I would recommend it.
