A new season of tours has launched at Ayrshire’s much-loved Royal estate, Dumfries House, with a wave of new recruits and guides eager to welcome guests.
Nestled in the East Ayrshire countryside, the historic Palladian house retains much of its 18th century landscape design and furniture collection, featuring many works by Thomas Chippendale.
The house is open daily to the public from April with the hour-long House Tour and 90-minute Grand Tour running once a day.
