The Undiscovered Scotland website gets recommended here often, and it’s a great resource. However, it can be seriously out of date. I decided to look at the entries for my local area and found three local museums mentioned. All of which have been closed since before I moved to Skye in 2016. I have emailed the site to ask them to remove these listings. [Edited to add that the site have replied and said they have noted in red that the 3 sites are no longer operating, but they are leaving the pages up for information purposes. This seems a bit bizarre given that one of the museums is now a private house, the other is empty and the Colbost croft museum is derelict].
But I just wanted to remind anyone planning to visit an attraction mentioned on the site to check directly with the attraction that they are still in business and to check opening times. The listings near me are all ‘off the beaten track’, down a long single track road and would make for a very frustrating and fruitless journey.
The sites I’m talking about are the Colbost Croft museum, the Glendale Toy Museum and the Borreraig Park museum.
