Robert Burns Birthplace Museum

What better place to find out about Robert Burns than in Alloway, at the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum? There, you’ll not only see the most significant collection of his work in the world, but enjoy a great day out for the whole family! 

Walk or ride the Poet’s Path to his birthplace at Burns Cottage, relax in Monument Gardens, investigate the spooky Auld Kirk, enjoy the scenery from the romantic Brig o’ Doon, before returning to the museum for lunch, while the kids enjoy the ‘Scots Wha’ Play’ park. 

Robert Burns Birthplace Museum ticket prices include entry to the cottage and museum. Access to the Auld Kirk, Monument Gardens and the Brig o’ Doon is free.
