A fine read from the Pitlochry Station Bookshop


Life here in the hotel at Pitlochry is pretty good, when I'm not hosting or managing the overall running of the place there is plenty of time to explore the town. My latest find has to be the Pitlochry Station Bookshop. It's right on the train station platform and is filled from ceiling to floor in both of its rooms with paperbacks - all handed in as donations.

The ladies who run the shop couldn't be more helpful - all volunteers, they have watched it grow from a single box of books to its current range and take great delight in watching as train passengers relax with their new acquisition, especially when trains are delayed.

There is an aura of calmness about the shop, it's definitely worth a visit or if you've shelves of old paperbacks never to be read again, this is the perfect home for them.
