I would say its very interesting to see it all.
Reviewed on
Yes, I really enjoyed the visit with my fiance. There is a lot to see and I find it interesting to see the flat on display as it was back in the day. I especially loved to see Miss Towards own bedroom, as its quite a cosy environment, and you can really picture her getting ready at the dressing table in the mornings. I like this attraction as you can really get a feel for what it was like living here back in the day.
I like the fact that yous have a gift shop on the first floor, but I would ask is there not a chance that you could incorporate something vintage in it, to go with the surroundings? Example, vintage advertising posters/postcards/coasters? As thats what I was really looking for when I visited, rather than just traditional Scottish themed things. Also, in the Wally Dug Cafe on the ground floor also, I think it would do really well, if you could start offering more choices for customers in it, such as Afternoon Tea? Which could be incorporated into the Ticket Entry Price, as an optional add on. Thanks. X -
It brought back nice memories of my youth.
