Robert Burns Ellisland Farm

Robert Burns is lovingly considered the National Poet of Scotland. He wrote many original poems and also adapted folk stories.

Burns is most famously known for his poem, Auld Lang Syne—sung throughout Scotland and the world. Born in Alloway, Burns lived across Scotland, but in 1788, moved to Ellisland Farm. This was his last home before moving to Dumfries where he passed. 

Burns built the barn himself amid the gorgeous Scottish landscape. The home is furnished with traditional items from the era and even includes many of Burns' personal items such as writing materials and farming tools. Visitors can even walk along the river Burns traversed for inspiration.
