Discover how Highland people lived, worked and played at this award-winning museum. Experience life portrayed from the early 1700s to the mid 1900s. Find the difference between a “cruck” and a “croman”, smell the “reek” of a peat fire, relive early school days and life on the farm, or just enjoy a “blether” and reminisce with our friendly staff.

Exceptionally well kept, this 18-hole 6031 yard (par 70) Speyside golf course has inspired generations of Highland golf enthusiasts and is playable with comfort and pleasure by average and good players alike. Designed by James Braid, and laid out on the ancient flood plain of the River Spey, Newtonmore Golf Course provides easy-going parkland golf with mountain views all round. Newtonmore Golf Club invites visitors, groups and golf societies to share a true Highlands golf experience and offers attractive prices for green fees, competitions and membership. And the clubhouse enjoys great views and has excellent bar and catering facilities too. Newtonmore village and golf course lie in the upper Spey Valley within the Cairngorms National Park and near to Aviemore and Inverness.

They are currently working on the building of a new indoor display area which will house many artifacts from a nearby museum which closed and it looks as if this will be a large building.
