Bute Museum
Enrich your experience of the island - explore the museum first! Experience the archaeology,history and natural history of the island with our extensive displays from every period of Bute's past.
Bute Museum's collections are mainly concerned with recording and preserving the Island's past and showing examples of the wildlife which might be seen there today.
The very distant past is well represented in the Natural History room's collection of rock samples illustrating Bute's complicated geology caused by its position on the Highland Boundary Fault and the subsequent violent activity associated with it.
Dogs are permitted at the discretion of staff based on how busy the museum is and the dogs temperament.

It's subject to the staff as to whether the dog is permitted - apparently lots of dogs freak out in the natural history section, so Missy was tested going in and out the wing before they allowed us in, which seemed perfectly reasonable! Went off season so had the place to ourselves, but we're told it does get very busy with school groups and during the in season.
