CMIC is located on Finlaystone Country Estate in Langbank, Scotland. It is in the same building as the Visitor Centre. Members of CMIC have free entry to Finlaystone except when the estate is holding special events, but other MacMillans and sept-members are expected to pay the usual estate entry charges. See a page on the Finlaystone Estate website listing these charges, and another with directions for finding the estate - which is close to Glasgow Airport.
If you wish to see the Clan Centre and meet the Chief you're advised to make an appointment - see Contacts page, or phone Chief George at 01475-540285 or email.
