To preserve the Bachelors’ Club's character and integrity, we will shortly begin a phased project that begins with rethatching the roof.

The Bachelors’ Club will be closed to the public for the rest of the season as we embark on this crucial restoration project. We anticipate reopening in 2025 and look forward to welcoming visitors back. Please check our website for updates on the reopening: https://www.nts.org.uk/visit.

There are food and drink facilities in Tarbolton village or the nearby town of Ayr, and at Robert Burns Birthplace Museum.
