Bâtiment historique à Tarbolton

Le Bachelors' Club à Tarbolton est un bâtiment historique étroitement lié au célèbre poète écossais Robert Burns. Il a été construit au 17ème siècle et était le lieu de rencontre du Bachelors' Club, une société d'hommes fondée par Burns, dédiée à la danse, aux débats et à la franc-maçonnerie. Dans ce club, Burns a appris à danser et à discuter des sujets importants de son époque.

Bachelors' Club histoire Robert Burns

Le bâtiment lui-même a été restauré de manière authentique et offre un aperçu fascinant des structures sociales et de la vie du 18ème siècle en Écosse. Les visiteurs peuvent explorer les pièces du 18ème siècle au rez-de-chaussée, tandis que l'étage supérieur abrite les salles de réunion d'origine où Burns et ses amis tenaient leurs discussions. La "10 Rules of Membership" écrite par Burns pour le club est particulièrement remarquable, étant considérée comme un document rare sur les normes sociales et les valeurs de l'époque.

Structures sociales du 18ème siècle Écosse

Un autre aspect intéressant du Bachelors' Club est son toit de chaume traditionnel, un matériau de construction typique pour les maisons de cette région. Le club est l'un des rares bâtiments à chaume encore présents en Écosse, et sa conservation est régulièrement entretenue pour préserver le charme historique de la maison.

Off the beaten track. A small gem to enjoy, especially if you are a Burns aficionado. Only the single, upstairs room is of true interest. The lady on duty was brilliant. Attentive and knowledgeable. Recommended.

Sympathetically restored premises and educational exhibits from NTS that are key to Burns’ time spent living there, which ultimately influenced some of his most important works. Our NTS guide was also fantastic and brought the visit to life.

Very interesting insight into Burn's life as a young man, meeting and debating with his friends. The building itself and it's history is fascinating.

I try to visit this centre in Tarbolton at least once a year. The curator's I find are helpful and informative. They help to bring the Bard alive.

Interesting to see this house which played an important role in the life of Rabbie Burns. Visit made all the more interesting through the information provided by the guide who had been drafted in from the Burns Museum.
