COVID-19 Information
The Scottish Government has announced Covid-19 lockdown restrictions throughout mainland Scotland starting from Tuesday 5th January 2021 and lasting until at least the 26th of April 2021.
This means our wee shop will be closed, and our walking tours suspended, for that period.
While these restrictions are in force, you can still book our tours for later in 2021, or purchase a wee treat for yourself or someone you know from our online shop.
We aim to reopen as soon as it is permissible (and we deem it safe) to do so. We will update this information as soon as the situation changes.
