Updates and latest news from Dumfries House
Sunday Guided Walks for 2012
Join our curator, Charlotte Rostek, on an exploration of the Dumfries House Estate.
Dates: 15 and 29 January and 12 and 26 February, 11.00am
The walk will take you from the historic Stable and Coach House, via the Laundry Building across the Adam Bridge. From here you will follow the road to the site of the Walled Garden and back across the river to the western boundary of the original estate. The Beech Avenue will join the Estate Road from the west gates and take you to the Dovecot – the oldest surviving building on the estate. A brief stop at the sawmill will continue to the Coach House Cafe where the walk will conclude.
The walk is designed to let you learn about the interesting historic development of the Dumfries House Estate while enjoying a gently paced walk from site to site. There will be photocopies of historic maps to look at. As many of the sites are currently undergoing restoration you will be able to get an insight into the latest developments.
Adults £8.50, Children £4.00.
