The 7 Best Military Museums in Scottish Highlands, Scotland
The moody, romantic Scottish Highlands start at Loch Lomond just north of Glasgow. Comprising a slew of mountain ranges, this sparsely populated land is best seen by train on the West Highland Line. Mountains, lochs, bright heather and rhododendrons give way to white sand beaches and rugged coves as the train nears Mallaig. For a more active take on the region, hike the West Highland Way or visit the Trossachs National Park. Ben Nevis, a popular climbing spot, looms over the town of Fort William.

We really enjoyed our first visit here. It is an excellent museum with an incredible number of artefacts, photos, memories and memorabilia of the Russian arctic Convoys of the Second World War. It is very well laid out and knowledgeable volunteers are present to have a chat or answer questions. There is a small bit well stocked shop and toilets. Definitely worth visiting if you are interested in how wartime history impacted on Loch Ewe and the surrounding area.

Return trip to Mallaig by car this time, beautiful sunny day. Waiting on ferry over to Skye so wandered back into heritage centre. Same cheery lady was on and overheard her once again giving directions to Restaurants in Mallaig. She remembered me too, spent time having a look around and bought bits in the shop. Well worth spending time in the heritage, lovely cheery staff. Lovely visit to a busy Mallaig on Wednesday 28 August hope to be back next year.

This is a fantastic museum. It is devoted to the Commandos and has such interesting artefacts especially relating to WW2. There are accounts from people who took part in the war and also representations from more recent conflicts. There are files with personal letters and photographs and the information is from people worldwide. It is well worth a visit but allow plenty of time.
