    A lovely cafe at the old railway station in Strathpeffer

    A favourite place to visit for either a coffee or lunch after a walk along the Peffery Way.

    A trip down memory lane

    This lovely little museum was quite a find. It is 2 interconnected rooms of an old Railway station. Filled with toys of yesteryear. As a mobility scooter user I was hesitant to visit because of the smallness and the geography of the building. I need not have worried. The Curator was so friendly and accommodating, fetching a ramp, moving some of the displays so my scooter could negotiate the space. She was so kind and made me feel welcome. Nothing was too much trouble
