...and the drummond hall barns sounds like some sort of hostel.

I think it might have been the barn on a farm.

See here www.oldscottish.com/kinclaven-1911-census.html  It mentions:

Drummond Hall Barn: Goode (5), Mcguire (1), Mcintosh (4), Norman (1), Watson (1)
Drummond Hall Bothy: Culbert (1), Forsyth (1), Sutherland (1)
Drummond Hall Cottage: Buchan (4), Gilmour (2)
Drummond Hall Farm: Campbell (1), Dow (5), Garvie (1), Ireland (1)

yes that is them, the goode family, would that be common to live in a barn with a young family? it is rather unsettling to imagine, fred died two years later in hamilton

If they were travelling people, perhaps they had parked their caravan(s) or whatever beside the barns at Drummond Hall?
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
