I remember my Dad jumping down to them from ground level and he then helped my friend and I down. We also explored the wine cellars one summer in my early teens.

I remember arriving at the Pineapple House summer after summer then we’d cross a farmer’s field crouched down low as private property back then with different rules. She worked for McCowan’s Toffee Factory back in the day. I think it might have been my Mum’s boss that told her about the place. We took broken pieces that had fallen home with us as souvenirs, I wonder if I could find them now. Also some of the coving on the ceilings remained which actually had a pineapple design to match the summerhouse and another design I still vaguely remember. A point of interest is that the floors were intact back then and while the fireplaces had all been stripped out as valuable, the original tiles remained. I loved that house, we all did and my parents have daffodils and snowdrops from the grounds in their garden to this day. I vaguely remember accessing the roof in the 70s as a young child of 8 or 9. My family used to visit Dunmore House back in the 1970s/80s. If you have an active imagination or get creeped out easily, this may not be the adventure for you. So, always be vigilant and don’t go at night. Warning: Dunmore Park House ruins is an abandoned area with lots of glass, debris, thorns, and broken staircases. Here’s a complete guide on how to find the Dunmore Park House Outlander location in Scotland. I’m sure I’ve piqued your interest by now, so I’m going to give you detailed instructions on how to find the ruins but also some top tips about keeping you and the area safe too! I had never heard about it before until I watched the Outlander TV series and saw that it featured in the very first episode as a hospital during World War II. But, not many are abandoned and better yet, presumed to be haunted!ĭunmore Park House is an abandoned ancestral home in Airth, Scotland that has fallen into ruin.Īlthough visitors mainly pop over to Dunmore Park for the Dunmore Pineapple (which is unusual in itself), a visit to the Dunmore Park House ruin is a surprisingly spooky affair!
