Stunning house well worth a visit but do walk around. the work that's gone on to renovate the walled gardens. the bridge and the surrounding area, houses and buildings is just amazing, So peaceful walking around and though there's people, children. dogs everything is so calm and, so enjoyable. The tearoom was busy, reasonable prices and quick pleasant service.Been to the restaurant previously and it is excellent Thank goodness Prince Charles saved this for the public to see. Do go!!!

Always wanted to pay a visit here and whilst in the area signed up for 'Grand Tour'. Only 17 people booked on tour with excellent guide.What a collection of original Chippendale furniture, art masterpieces, original carpets, and antiques - all within Palladian architecture that has not been spoilt since its Georgian origins.I have visited stately homes all over the UK - but this is something exceptional - and all under the personal patronage of the Prince of Wales who had the foresight to arrange the funding to save its contents being dispersed across the world.

We went for the Grand Tour today, and I must say, from the lady in the gift shop who was delightful, to the staff in the coffee shop (and the hot rolls with sausage - yum) the guide, Gail and wonderful Matt, what a great afternoon out. The house is wonderful, the furniture and decor breathtaking, and Gail's expert knowledge made it a truly memorable visit. We will go back again and again.

Wow, what a visitor attraction!We arrived on a crisp frosty day with the sun shining and were not disappointed. We would've liked to have saw the training centre open, unfortunately not!Dumfries House is steeped in local history and sits in fantastic grounds with wonderful walks. Great morning out, tea room is comfortable and food is good. Gift shop staff are very knowledgable and give good advice. Gifts are a little pricey!

Lovely place to visit with the kids, play park excellent, food not bad, BUT... The service in the restaurant is so terribly slow.. They aren't organised for opening time, one till, you can stand for a coffee for 20 mins. That's the only thing they urgently need to rectify. Now we take our own flasks and food, it just became unbearable to waste so much time. There aren't any feedback cards available, probably because everyone would be saying the same thing.

Very interesting tour, a must if your down this way, and really worth understanding how the country was close to losing this treasure.

Two of us did the Grand Tour of the house, at a reasonable price ( there is a slightly cheaper, briefer tour) the tour groups are small and the guide was excellent.The tour feels intimate and the house is full of interesting, historical, rare valuable items and decorations I have visited a number of important houses and stately homes, this one is special I think not only for the building, its history, contents, rarity and importance but also the whole feel of the place and there is nothing roped off although there is a strict no touch policy. It has a romantic feel. It had a last seconds reprieve from sell off mainly due to the actions of the Prince of Wales. I would certainly like to visit again as there is too many interesting things for one visit to be enough and the work there is on going. The weather was very wet for visiting the grounds and I have saved that for a further visit. we did visit the shop and café had some food and drinks it was very busy but fine. I believe the grounds are free to visit except for a garden which has a small charge.

My first visit to this amazing country house was so good that my husband and I have already agreed to return. The guide was superb and really knowledgeable. The quality of restoration work that has been carried out in recent years is second to none. This is a real jewel in Scotland's crown and worth the trip to East Ayrshire.

Having visited Dumfries House for the first time at the weekend, I have to say I was most impressed.The house and the restoration was quite magnificent.What an ideal venue for a special function, wedding, etc.The grounds, accommodation and in fact everything was something to be enjoyed.

Had a walk round the gardens and grounds and what an improvement since our last visit.I can't wait to visit again in the summer and then see the grounds and gardens in all splendour.Keep up good work all involved.
