Shopping may not be highest on a holidaymaker's list of "things to do" but here are a number of locations where one can buy quality local produce and crafts or browse for a while on the (rare!) rainy day.

Local Food Produce

For local lamb and venison try Braes Farming at Inverlochlarig (where Rob Roy spent his last days) beyond the head of Loch Voil, 6 miles west of Balquidder.

You can also save yourself the (delightful) trip along the shores of Loch Voil by buying Braes Farming venison and lamb, plus local beef, free-range eggs, honey and much more, at Balquidder Braes Farm Shop at Balquidder Station.

At Dalchonzie Fruit Farm Shop (between St Fillans and Comrie) you can not only buy strawberries and raspberries from the farm in season but an astonishing range of sweet jams and preserves and savoury chutneys, all hand-produced on site. (Open Easter to Christmas)
