The Turf House in Glencoe offers a unique glimpse into the past and a chance to experience how people lived during the infamous massacre of 1692. This reconstructed eco-home, made with natural materials found in the surrounding landscape, showcases the traditional building techniques of the Highlands. With artifacts and soundscape evoking 17th-century life, the house provides a fascinating insight into the daily routines of Glencoe's past inhabitants.

Visitors can explore this and the Glencoe Visitor Centre during its opening hours:
