Explore the home Robert Burns built for his young family and feel the inspirational surroundings that gave us Auld Lang Syne and Tam o Shanter

Visit Ellisland, the family home built by Robert Burns in 1788 for his bride Jean Armour. Set picturesquely on the banks of the River Nith, Burns could not have chosen a more idyllic spot.

Follow in the footsteps of one of world’s greatest poet’s and experience the peace and tranquility of its riverside location. Admire the view of the Nith from his study where many of his greatest works were penned, and soak in the unique atmosphere of Ellisland Farm, which has barely changed since the time of Burns.

Connect to the Bard and his life here at the Farm through an extensive collection of artefacts, memorabilia and manuscripts housed at the home he built, lived and worked at.

Also situation on the historic 18th century farm is Auld Acquaintance Cottage, a romantic riverside cottage, which is availabe for booking through cottages.com.
