This property is about 35 mins drive from Woodside. It is the jewel in the crown of National Trust property in Scotland. One of the most visited estates in Britain and it is well worth a visit. Don't miss the Electric Brae on the way there, or a visit to Dunure Harbour which was also a filming location for Outlander.

Outlander location just opposite Woodside. Dean Castle houses mediaeval armour and one of the most important collections of ancient musical instruments in Europe. Lovely walks and a reasonable cafe. Home to Kilmarnock’s weekly Parkrun event.

Home of Scotland’s National poet, Rabbie Burns. Perhaps best known the world over for the song “For Auld Lang Syne” which is traditionally sung at New Year celebrations. Our daughter Hannah will be holding her wedding reception here in March 2020. Don't miss a visit to the thatched cottage and follow the "Poet's Walk" along to the museum. Have a drink or a coffee in the "Brig O' Doon" Hotel which is close by, and don't forget to visit the Auld Brig at Alloway where the drunken Tam's horse Meg lost her tail to Cutty Sark in the famous story of "Tam O' Shanter"
