Welcome to The Highland Bookshop, Fort William

We're Sorry!
Our online shop is now closed to new orders.

We are proud to be independent, and proud to be part of the community.

Words (our favourite things) can't express how touched we have been by the support we have received this last couple of weeks. Thank you!

Take care everyone and we'll see you soon!

Sarah-Lou & The Highland Bookshop Team

The Highland Bookshop proudly occupies one of the biggest shops in Fort William's bustling pedestrianized High Street.

There hadn't been a specialist bookshop in Fort William - ever - until we opened in 2017. Since opening we have organised hundreds of author events. As a result of the huge support we have had, we have now doubled our space by expanding into our upstairs floor.

The ground floor of the shop hosts an extensive range of titles across all subjects including Scottish interest, the outdoors, children's, fiction, as well as all non-fiction areas like history, food & drink.

Our first floor is home to our Big Outdoor Lounge, where you can find the largest selection of maps, guides and travel materials in Scotland. There is also a growing selection of stationery and art supplies, as well as our newly expanded Secondhand Books department.
