Logie Steading Bookshop
Strong in all the areas that interest regulars and that bring visitors to this lovely part of the world, Logie Steading Bookshop has a very wide range of books for sale. Week in and week out, customers tell me how amazed they are to find such a big and well-stocked bookshop, offering such a wide range of titles in what they consider to be such an unlikely and out-of-the-way place. Many of the shop's customers make a special trip to view its current stock on their annual holiday in Scotland, whilst regulars come from near and far, making frequent visits to the bookshop and cafe part of their social round.
The shop is open from March 1st - Christmas, seven days a week, between 11 and 5 o'clock. Shorter opening hours may be operating during January and February. I am Helen Trussell, the owner of the business, and I live nearby so the shop can easily be made available outside shop hours by appointment.

There
is a wide range of paperback fiction and bays of books priced at 50p
and £1.00 outside the shop for bargain-hunters. There are even devotees
of the outdoor shelves. But most returning customers come to check out
their favourite specialist hardback sections or to bring along friends
to introduce them to the wide variety of fine, rare and antiquarian
books. Subjects covered include local and general Scottish history,
food and drink, travel, mountaineering, natural history and gardening,
aviation, maritime, military and sporting books. One of our strengths
is that you never know what you might find on our shelves! We have a
children's section and enjoy seeing children sitting down for a browse
and entering the world of imagination.
In
response to customer demand, we now sell book tokens redeemable at the
Logie Steading Bookshop. Many of our fine books are bought as presents
and we have always had a fair returns policy. If a book has been bought
that proves to be unsuitable or already in the possession of the recipient,
we are happy to make an exchange or refund if the book is returned in
the same condition in which it left!
