About Robert Burns’ Ellisland Museum and Farm

Ellisland Farm was built by Robert Burns in 1788 for his young wife Jean Armour and their family. Burns chose Ellisland for its beautiful setting beside the River Nith. It has changed little since the 18th century and remains the most authentic of all his homes.
