Business as Usual during Cuddy Bridge Closure

There are major roadworks in the centre of Peebles scheduled to begin on Monday 26th January and lasting for up to 4 weeks (though we've got everything crossed that they will be over and done within a shorter time period)

The Cuddy Bridge will be shut to vehicles from the bottom of Elcho Street Brae to the mini-roundabout at the end of the High Street. We've been assured that pedestrian access will be available at all times.
If you are coming in to Peebles from Edinburgh, Galashiels or the south side of the river you will be able to reach either the East Station Car Park or Kingsmeadows Car Park by the normal routes but you can expect much heavier traffic at some of the junctions.

The fun starts if you are approaching the town from the west with a substantial diversion around the Old Town in place (marked in red on the map) We've been advised that access in to Greenside Car Park will be maintained from the foot of Elcho Street Brae but if you're here for a leisurely visit to the town we'd recommend using the Neidpath Road Car Park, which is on the left just as you enter the town, immediately after the school crossing. From there you can make your way through beautiful Hay Lodge Park and along the Tweed in to town without involving your car in the roadworks or diversions.

Some Early Closing in Peebles in August

Aggh! Sometimes the fact that we're a family business can cause problems, particularly if there's a family event that needs everyone to attend. Can't think of the last time it's happened but unfortunately we've got two in August (the 10th and the 24th). As a result the Peebles store will be closed early on those Wednesdays. Half day closing is something we haven't done since the 1990's- so last century! We apologise for the incovenience- all our other hours remain unaltered.
