Fantastic wee museum. The replica shops were fascinating. Tip - if you visit the there is reserved parking spaces with no time limit for visitors at the door. Most of the parking in Biggar is for a limited time A fantastic with so much to see and do. I loved using the original switchboard to connect telephone calls, along with all of the of local shops. The Ian Hamilton Findlay exhibition was excellent, as enjoyable as the one that Edinburgh mounted. Do go, you won't be disappointed. The bookshop at the other end of town is a great followup. It was the best small town I have ever been to. Well laid out,excellent signage. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff about all things local a must visit if you ever go to Biggar. Great little museum. Although most of the are aimed at an adult audience, there's a couple of hunt and quiz type things for kids as well as dressing up and toy boxes which kept my 3 year old occupied for two hours while the adults enjoyed the museum. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the are so varied that there really is something for everyone in here. Very enjoyable and fascinating place. Five stars A huge amount of local history and artifacts in such a small area at such a great price. My grandson loved going round this little museum. It is full of interesting things with loads of information. We especially loved the old shops and my grandson loved playing at peaver. He also really enjoyed finding all the objects on the treasure hunt. He was also tickled pink at receiving a William Wallace badge because he had completed the treasure hunt. We can heartily recommend a visit to the if you are in Biggar. The toilets are also spotlessly clean. 5 stars⭐ If you ever pass by Biggar, stop and visit this museum! What a precious hidden gem! Starting with the staff, who’s absolutely helpful and nice. Then the models… with adorable and funny details. And finally the shops in the back!! My goodness, the level of detail takes you back in time. Suddenly you are in a 19th century neighbourhood, visiting the grocery or the pharmacy. One of the best museums I’ve visited! Very interesting and displays about Biggar and surrounding areas through the centuries I miss thé scatted museums across biggar but the new has a fantastic collection of displays helping everyone who’s interested learn about the history of biggar and the area Fabulous wee museum...the volunteer staff were absolutely fantastic. Made us really welcome and gave us a great insight into some other exhibits...highly recommended. Well curated with many interesting artefacts and friendly volunteers. Highly recommended! Great for a small town. Very friendly and helpful staff Lovely little museum. Took my kids (2 at 20 and 1 at 26) who enjoyed the phone switchboard very much. They laughed at a number of the and had a great afternoon. Staff and volunteers very helpful. Will take my 22 year old the next time he is home. Will definitely recommend.
