SEAHORSE BOOKSTORE

What a delight the Seahorse Bookstore is! I found this absolute gem quite by accident when heading into Ardrossan. An absolutely fabulous independent bookstore with a great selection of books including fiction, crime, and local as well as an extensive children’s selection. The only thing better than the books here are the staff. Molly and Gordon work tirelessly to support both their customers and the local community. Nothing is too much trouble. They are always able to suggest good titles and the orders come in very promptly. Also offering hot drinks and seahorse biscuits along with comfy sofas. Please if you haven’t yet been do go and try it out for yourself in sunny Ardrossan on Sea.

I have now been in the shop a couple of times and I must say I have enjoyed each visit. So much so that I am going to attend the book club, a first for me. It’s brilliant that Ardrossan has this little gem tucked in the marina. The staff go above and beyond to help with the shop offering a wide variety of books. A loyalty scheme is also available. This shop is a must for book lovers. Instead of purchasing online this shop offers everything you want and expect from a good old, proper, family run bookstore.

Loved this bookshop! The owner was so knowledgeable and recommended some great books. Great to see a business like this in Ardrossan. I hope it thrives. I don’t live in the area anymore but locals please pay this book shop a visit and show your support!
