The museum itself is housed in a beautiful 17th-century building, and stepping inside feels like stepping back in time. The exhibits are thoughtfully curated and offer visitors a glimpse into the lives and works of these iconic writers.
One of the highlights of the museum is the impressive collection of rare books, manuscripts, and personal items belonging to Burns, Scott, and Stevenson. Visitors can see first editions of some of their most famous works, as well as personal items like Scott's writing desk and Stevenson's traveling trunk.
The museum also has a number of interactive exhibits, including a recreation of Scott's study and a "quill bar" where visitors can try their hand at writing with a traditional quill pen .
Overall, the Writers' Museum is a must-visit for anyone interested in Scottish literature and history. The exhibits are informative and engaging, and the building itself is a beautiful piece of history. Whether you're a fan of Burns, Scott, Stevenson, or just love books in general, this museum is well worth a visit.
