About Auchindrain

Auchindrain is a historic settlement located in Argyll and Bute, in the west of Scotland. It is best known for its well-preserved 19th-century crofting village, which has been carefully maintained as a museum. The site includes a collection of original stone cottages, a schoolhouse, and a blacksmith’s shop, all reflecting the traditional way of life in rural Scotland. The village was once home to farming families and offers insight into the social and economic conditions of the time. Visitors can explore the buildings and learn about the daily routines of crofters through guided tours and displays. The area is accessible via the A815 road, and the postcode PA32 covers the surrounding region. The site is managed by the Auchindrain Trust, which works to preserve the heritage of the village for future generations.
