What Should I Do With Two Days In Peterhead?

If you have 2 days to spend in Peterhead, here are some suggestions:

  • Visit the Peterhead Prison Museum: This museum houses the largest collection of prison-related artefacts in the UK and is situated in the former HMP Peterhead. It will take about 2-3 hours to explore.
  • Explore the Aden Country Park: This park is located about 15 miles from Peterhead and offers nature walks, a heritage centre and a children's play area. Plan for at least half a day to enjoy the park.
  • Check out the Peterhead Harbour: Peterhead is a fishing port, and the harbour area is worth a visit to see the boats and enjoy the views. You can take a walk along the pier or enjoy some fresh seafood at one of the nearby restaurants.
  • Take a trip to the Bullers of Buchan: This famous landmark is a collapsed sea cave that forms a circular chasm with sheer cliff faces. It is located about 7 miles from Peterhead and will take about 1-2 hours to explore.

For places to stay, you can consider the Buchan Braes Hotel or The Waterside Hotel. Both are located conveniently near the town centre and offer comfortable accommodations.
