We want your visit to the Centre to be as enjoyable as possible. We've therefore added a few hints and tips to help.

Weather

Scottish weather is changeable so it's best to prepare for all weather fronts when visiting the Centre. Warm, waterproof clothing and footwear are optimum.  Please go to the Met Office for the current weather conditions/forecast.

Schools & Group Bookings

There may be times when a school or group booking is in progress.  A note of all group bookings will be posted outside the Centre daily.  Should you arrive while a tour is in progress or is about to arrive, our Front of House staff will advise you accordingly.  If you prefer to check prior to arrival, please call us for further information.  

Disabled Access

Mobility scooters are unable to access the crannog roundhouse due to the uneven walkway. Access is possible for regular wheelchairs providing they are pulled backwards, it is not recommended however for those suffering spinal injuries.  Please ask our front of house staff on arrival or call us for further information. 

Car Parking

Parking is shared with the Marina adjacent to us and can be temporarily full at holiday and event times.  Additional parking can be found in Kenmore, just a short walk from the Centre.  

Coach Parking

Coaches should enter the car park via the second entrance on the left where access is easier. Full details will be given on booking to anyone arriving in coaches/mini-buses.

Cycling

We have a bicycle rack just outside the entrance to the Centre. 

Dogs

Dogs on leads are allowed on site.

Picnics

We encourage you to bring your picnic with you and there are plenty of spots around the site where you can sit and enjoy lunch or a snack.  Please remember to dispose of your litter carefully.
