Robert Burns Birthplace & Museum
Robert Burns Birthplace Museum offers a truly unique encounter with Scotland’s favourite son.
The museum comprises the famous Burns Cottage where the poet was born, the historic landmarks where he set his greatest work, the elegant monument and gardens created in his honour and a modern museum housing the world’s most important collection of his life and works.
Perfectly located within easy reach of Scotland’s busiest cities and some of her most beautiful coastal scenery, and less than 10 miles from an international airport, Robert Burns Birthplace is an excellent destination for either a day out or as the ideal base for exploring Burns Country. A great family destination, it has a large, licensed, self-service café, with children's menu, and provides lots of other children’s activities.
Alloway, the town where the Robert Burns museum is located is easily accessible by driving South from Largs in the direction of Prestwick Airport.
