The museum is situated in the olde worlde village of Glamis not far from the Castle where Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother was born and is actually a little treasure trove for people interested in how we used to live. Its an incredible place and I throughly enjoyed wandering around, looking at the displays and listening to the staff. Rooms are set up how they would've looked around 200 years ago in rural Angus including a box bed, a weaving machine, a fully equipped laundry room complete with mangle and a kitchen with an open fire. The parlour of course is the best room in the house, and it is here we see the gentleman of the house sitting down taking tea. Outside there is a stable with an array of farming equipment too so there's something for everyone. Opening times vary so do check and there is a charge but you can buy a family ticket which makes it slightly cheaper. All in all a fantastic place to visit while in Angus.

Just a few yards from Glamis Castle, the museum is is a group of cottages where the inner walls have been removed so that you can walk from one end to the other. Fascinating glimpse of a children's school room with small desks. There was a room to show how they washed their clothes using soap & starch.

Outside in the stable area you could see some of the farming basic machinery.

Had a very informative time. Suggest that yoiu check the opening & closing times before setting out.
