The red circle highlights the location of the museum.
 
By clicking on the map, opposite, you can access a larger version of it. When the larger map appears, note the various controls on the left which allow you to zoom in/out/pan the map, etc. You can also select an aerial view photograph of the area - and zoom in/out with this too! Details of many local hotels, guest houses, weather forecasts, etc., can be accessed from these map pages. The 'map pages' are displayed in a new window; therefore, to return here, merely close-down the new window (or, you can 'toggle' between the two).
