Tips from locals
Brilliant day out, very interesting and staff are incredibly friendly and helpful.
Truly chilling. Very atmospheric, interesting to go but you’ll never be happier to be able to walk back out after your visit. Must’ve been a very scary place in it’s day. Scotland’s Alcatraz.
Popular museum where you can learn about the history of the prison, some of the most infamous "residents" and the people who have worked there. Has had great reviews from guests.
Award winning walk through tour of the old Victorian prison that was at the centre of prison riots in the early 80’s. Headsets are provided so you can take your time and feel what it was like to be incarcerated and find out about some of the infamous prisoners it housed. * Warm clothing is advised - it can be cold inside*
