gateway to the glens museum

My fave things in the Museum are:- the lovely staff, who are very helpful- the diorama (look out for the cheeky bottom!)- the local natural history exhibit (I do like a well stuffed bit of taxidermy)The temporary exhibitions are away really interesting, and the windows outside are worth a peek too!

Contrary to many other reviews, we found this place to be rather dull and boring. There were just a few signs round the walls and a couple of old bits and pieces upstairs, along with a display of taxidermy. We will not be rushing back.

This is a great little museum which gives lots of very interesting information on old Kirrie. It's a must do place to visit.

I have been round it a few times and it's well worth it. The first time I went with son when he was small and we were in there for about 3 hours and it's quite a small museum but there is so much to see. They have new and exciting things there all the time to go and see. It's not a place you go once and that's it, you can keep going time and time again as they keep getting different things in to view

Very interesting, highly informative museum - small but perfectly formed! Incredibly helpful and knowledgeable assistants on hand to answer all questions about Kirriemuir and the nearby Angus Glens.

Really enjoyed our visit here. Friendly, relaxed, not crowded, and a range of interesting things to look at. Liked the Bon Scott small exhibition - hope they can raise enough money for a stutue of him in the town.

Wasn't sure what to expect and was pleasantly surprised. Set in a lovely old, small building there is lots to see and plenty of interest. High focus on J M Barrie and lots on former industry and ways of life. Pleasant, friendly and helpful staff. Only moan would be dated, clumsy and clunky touchscreen system!

Liked the variety of items. It was a wee find which we didn't plan on visiting. Only popped in because it was raining! Glad we did. Staff friendly and knowledgable.

This is a lovely little museum with very friendly, helpful staff. Exhibitions change regularly. Great introduction to the surrounding area and very knowledgeable staff always ready to point you in the right direction. Probably keep you occupied for around an hour depending whether you're the type that reads all information provided in a museum.Also a good selection of tourist information leaflets and books.

Having lived in Kirriemuir all my life, I thought I knew everything there was to know about Kirriemuir but I was wrong! This lovely little museum gives a great insight into the town and surrounding area and the friendly staff are on hand with some great snippets of information and were able to answer some queries I had about the town. Would certainly recommend for a visit. Not one to miss!

Full of information about the local area and it's history/heritage, friendly staff only too willing to help. As well as the museum they have a host of leaflets and information regarding local tourist attractions :) Well worth the visit!

Questo è il paese di Peter Pan ma qualcosa altro di altrettanto magico...la natura veramente spettacolare...
