At Dumfries House, our priority is the health and wellbeing of all our staff, students, volunteers and visitors.

We have sadly taken the decision to close our estates and gardens, in addition to our indoor spaces, to help restrict the spread of coronavirus. We ask people to avoid travel and comply with social distancing guidance. If the situation changes in any way we will make a further statement.

Locally, this includes Dumfries House, the Visitor Centre, Woodlands restaurant, the Coach House Cafe, the Dumfries House education centres, New Cumnock Outdoor Swimming Pool, New Cumnock Town Hall and Dumfries House Lodge.

We have also taken the decision to cancel all public events and activity. If you are affected then we will be in contact in due course. If you have any immediate enquiries or do not hear from us then please email info@dumfries-house.org.uk

If the situation changes in any way we will make a further statement.

We thank you for your continued support and understanding in these uncertain times, and we look forward to letting you know about our plans for reopening as soon as we are able.
