First off let me clarify that I'm a local from Fraserburgh. I've lost count of the number of times I've visited the museum over the years but it never gets old for me. Learning about the lonely life of the lighthouse keepers and their families strikes a chord with me every time (Being an officer in the merchant service myself).... More

We came to Fraserburgh to tour the Brewdog Brewery (and were able to enjoy driving the hidden gem that is the coastal route on the way there) and happened upon this museum. The tour of the lighthouse was the clear highlight; really lovely guide, and an in depth tour of the lighthouse and its attendant buildings. We also got to... More

I've been coming here for years and bringing assorte3d neices, nephews and cousins from the ages of about 6 until they were too cool to be seen out with Aunt Lynn anymore. The guides here are brilliant with kids, the tour is really interesting and informative with a real hands on sense of the past. Not to mention you get... More

This is a must if you visiting the north east of Scotland. The museum itself is superb & very informative. Some of the old lights on display are unbelievable. Nice 15 min film with a guided tour of Kinnaird Head lighthouse thrown in as well. There was a tour at 10:30,1 & 2 when i was there. Try 10:30 to... More

This is a great museum if you like lighthouses. The lenses are wonderful and show the technology of the 1800s. Interesting displays and some even talk to you. The museum also has a nice cafe and gift area. It was easy to get around inside the museum and the tour was very informative. More

We had the joy to be guided round by one of the last active lighthouse keepers which was extremely nice and extremely informing. Being Austrian landlubbers we had a good time in the museum and the on the top of the lighthouse with a great view round. The guide was pointing out different things, animals and telling great stories about... More

We were wanting to see this place because we wanted to see something other than Stately homes and castles. We arrived at the Museum at 4 and was told that they were closed. All the signs around the building said the place was open until 5 (the website also stated this). There were still people in the gift shop and... More

Been trying to get to this attraction for a while but its a bit out of the way tucked up in the north east corner of Scotland. Lots to look at, full of history and information. The cost of entrance includes a tour around Kinnard Head lighthouse which is an unusal one as its built through a castle. Toilets, gift... More

Visited on free weekend which was a pleasant surprise. Get given a tour time ( on the hour?). Tour is very informative and takes approx 45 mins. You get to go up lighthouse (72 steps, but not all in one go, stops at different levels) Last set of steps are vertical ( ship style). Then you may look at displays... More
