My wife and I (and our little 5 month old) really enjoyed doing the Abandoned Academy room today. Some really nice touches including nods to some local history, attention to detail with the items in the room and a satisfying logic to it all once you work it out. Really friendly and welcoming while managing the necessary COVID procedures. Would definitely recommend!

Reviewed By 782friedag - Coffs Harbour, Australia

I spent a few hours here and enjoyed the experience. Visited the museum, shop, cafe (lovely quiche and pot of tea), walked around the gardens, churchyard, monument, bridge and cottage. All lovely. Children's playground looked wonderful. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Burns Monument and Gardens

Reviewed By hairdy - Preston, United Kingdom

After visiting the museum, Burns Cottage and Auld Kirk I love to spend a few hours just walking around, down to Brigadoon, then go up inside the monument to appreciate the views. When quiet this place is so peaceful, lots of benches to just sit and enjoy the views, beauty and peace of this special place

Lovely flat walk, which for an arthritis sufferer makes life a bit easier. Beautiful scenery along the front of Ayr and we were blessed with a gorgeous sunny autumn day.

Ayr Equestrian Centre

Reviewed By U4909MWwendys

My 3 children adored this in 2019. They had excellent tuition and the final day where they showed their acquired skills in a show was a delight. I hope they will run it again when the next two will be old enough to go.

Robert Burns Birthplace Museum

Birthplace of poet Robert Burns.

Reviewed By svenskmum - Glasgow, United Kingdom

although we stay a 45 minute drive away, this was our first visit. This is a National Trust for Scotland property and I must say, very modern, bright, informative and the staff very friendly and helpful. The cafe was excellent, good home made products with prices cheaper than many other cafe in the area. The museum was very interesting with lots to see about our Rabbie. Then of course you can walk over to the Auld Kirk, Rabbie's birthplace, the monument and the Brig O' Doon. (the bridge over the river, not the hotel)you can spend an excellent few hours seeing and more than likely realising that Robert Burns contributed a lot more to our Scottish heritage than we knew. Even on a wet day it is a place to go to. There is also a children's outside play area when the weather is good. Helps the little ones from being too board with culture. The gift shop is well worth a visit. This is certainly a place where we shall visit again soon.
