Blairs Museum offers a unique insight into Scotland's Catholic history and heritage, housed in part of the former national junior seminary and home to spectacular collections spanning more than 500 years. It suits visitors with an interest in religious history, heritage and archives. Please note the museum is currently closed while it moves to a new location, so it's worth checking social media for updates before planning a visit. The attraction is located in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, with Portlethen station 3.6 miles away, and there are 37 bookable places to stay within 5 miles on BritStays, making it easy to combine with a short break in the area once reopened.
