This is Scotland's only visitor attraction devoted entirely to the kilt, set within a working kiltmaking workshop in Inverness. You'll see kilts being made for export worldwide and for the retail shops on site, with audio-visual, costume and tartan displays bringing the history to life. There's a Handmade Kilt Demonstration, a short 'Kilted Hall of Fame' film featuring famous names and places, and insight into how kilts are worn internationally. It suits anyone curious about Highland dress, craftsmanship or Scottish heritage. Inverness station is just 0.3 miles away, and with 77 bookable places to stay within 5 miles on BritStays, it's an easy addition to a stay in the Highlands.
