About J M Barrie's Birthplace

Visit the enchanting cottage where Sir JM Barrie was born!

As charming as it is, if the kids are not aware of the story and the writer in advance then they may find this a little dry and un-affecting. It's well worth educating them ahead of time on Barrie's classics so they can feel a sense of justifiable wonder when they visit the writer's home. It's full of his real possessions and many interesting things offering discreet insight into his stories.
