Join us as we explore Dunvegan Cottage with a ghostly twist!
First up, hear from the Melton Historical Society about some of the best kept secrets, scandals, and misadventures of Melton's past, along with a short history of the Cottage.
Then it's time to grab your ghost-hunting gear and start investigating! The team from Mysteries Lost In History will be on hand to guide you as you explore the Cottage and grounds conducting your own experiments.
