Planning your visit
This property is part of the ‘We’re Good to Go’ scheme, which means we have carried out an official COVID-19 risk assessment to check we have everything in place to reopen safely.
Please note that there will be limited access to the house, but the Box will be open.
Please be aware that for the health and safety of visitors, volunteers and employees in our hospitality venues, we will record the name and contact details of everyone who enters in order to support NHS Scotland’s Test and Protect. This information will be used to enable NHS Scotland to contact you should you have been in the venue around the same time as someone who has tested positive for coronavirus. We are obliged to process this data to comply with The Health Protection (Coronavirus) (Restrictions) (Scotland) Amendment (No. 11) Regulations 2020. Please see our Data Protection page for further information.
Further to this, in National Trust for Scotland non-hospitality settings, where there is either a pre-booking system in place or there is the potential for close contact (eg in some of our smaller properties), we will ask visitors to provide limited contact information. This is for the purposes of managing the number of visitors and also to support NHS Scotland’s Test and Protect. For further information, please see our Data Protection page.
Pre-booking
We’ve set up a pre-booking system to make your tour around the house easier and safer. Ticket numbers are capped each day, so please book in advance to avoid disappointment. No more than six people will be permitted per half hour time slot. In accordance with government guidelines, booking groups should contain no more than two household groups.
We strongly advise that you pre-book before travelling. If you do not pre-book, we cannot guarantee entry to the house and you may be turned away.

Facilities & access
We have an ongoing programme of accessible content development. Detailed accessibility guides for the most visited Trust places are available on our Accessibility pages as well as links to useful resources.
We’d love you to visit the Euan’s Guide website to review the accessibility of Trust places and tell us (and others) what’s good and where we need to do better.
Dogs are also welcome at the roof terrace café.
Parking is free in the car park.
There is ramped access at the side of the house for wheelchair users. The drawing room, main hallway, dining room, gift shop and tearoom are all wheelchair accessible. There is no wheelchair access to the upper floor, but a tablet showing images of the rooms is available.
