Hello everyone,

Welcome to our website, we hope you enjoy having a look around and gain some inspiration for your next read. Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or would like to place an order. Don’t forget to sign up to our newsletter below for musings and ramblings from bookshop life, as well as reading about some exceptional books.


We will be OPEN on Easter Sunday 11 am - 4 pm

The best is yet to come!

Browse our pre-orders page or check out past newsletters to find your next book.

There are thousands of books published every year and we have listed just a few of our favourites to come. If it has been announced then we can order it for you, just get in touch.

There is no better way to support us than visiting the bookshop in person or getting in touch via phone or email for collection in Biggar.

If you would like to support us online please use our partner Bookshop.org. They have created an online platform that helps independent bookshops across the country by offering an alternative way to shop online while being conscious of a bricks and mortar business. Browse their titles below.

 

"I have never been in a more perfectly designed bookshop, with a lovely integration of the books themselves and various bold and charming artworks.  The books are everywhere, somehow all folded into an incredibly small place, like a ship’s cabin. I did an event there recently and by the end was trying to work out how I could relocate my family to Biggar.  It was like being given a brief glimpse of an ideal place and then being cruelly chucked back into London.’

Simon Winder, author of Lotharingia

Looking for inspiration?

Browse or order

We love to talk about books, recommend books and appreciate books with anyone interested so don’t hesitate to ask. You will find some of our recommended titles here and many, many more in the shop as well as a very efficient (usually next-day) ordering service.

Bricks and Mortar

We are a proudly bricks-and-mortar high street shop. We believe independent bookshops are a special place to visit and so much of the pleasure of reading is going into a bookshop, having a browse, chatting about exceptional (or not!) books and experiencing the soul and atmosphere of reading.

Events

We work closely with the local community, schools and the library to curate a wide range of interesting and inspiring sessions. We are currently organising a small programme of events for autumn 2025 so be the first to hear about these by signing up to our newsletter, or check out what is coming up soon on the events page.
