The Carmichael Farm Shop is now open for the 2024 season! We’re welcoming visitors Wednesday through Sunday, from 10am to 5pm. Please note, the Carmichael Bistro is currently closed for renovation, but we’ll keep you updated on its reopening.

Explore the Wax Model Collection – Now Open!
We’re excited to announce that the Edinburgh Wax Model Collection is open again. Entry is by donation, so feel free to stop by the farm shop and take a journey through Scotland’s history.

Opened in 1994, the Carmichael Visitor Centre is home to a range of unique experiences, including our Farm Shop, the Carmichael Bistro & Tearoom, and the renowned Wax Model Collection. This fascinating exhibit brings to life Scotland’s millennium, from Queen Margaret and Macbeth to the present day, through realistic wax model scenes and detailed storyboards. These scenes also highlight local crafts and culture, offering a glimpse into the rural life of our district.

Discover the Carmichael Clan’s Rich History
Our Visitor Centre also includes the Carmichael Clan Room, dedicated to the thousand-year history of the Carmichael family, who have lived on this land for generations.

Outdoor Adventures
For those who love the outdoors, self guided Carmichael history walks and treks for cyclists and walkers can be taken from the visitor centre. These scenic routes start from the visitor centre and take you through the beautiful landscapes that have been part of the Carmichael story for centuries.

 

Local Produce at the Farm Shop
Don’t forget to visit the Carmichael Farm Shop, where you can find our own award-winning venison, beef, and lamb, along with other locally sourced products. While the bistro is temporarily closed, once it reopens, it will feature delicious meals and snacks made with our farm’s fresh produce.

Entry to the Visitor Centre is free, but donations are always appreciated. Your contributions help us maintain these unique historical exhibits and enhance the visitor experience.

We look forward to seeing you at the Carmichael Farm Shop & Museum!
