Much more than a bookstore! A spark of magic floats along while you shop! We were recommended and sold Ms. Muir's book at the Queen's Castle last year and were given the tip that Ms. Muir would sign the books in the Book Shop. We already did that back then and got to know a wonderful author. Today we were there again and were able to buy a new book from Ms. Muir with a personal dedication. Price performance is great and the service too. Just a wonderful shopping experience and a wonderful day. We will definitely come back and are already looking forward to the next book! Thank you Mrs Muir!

A sweet bookshop offering the perfect amounts of new and second-hand books. Perfect for everyone interested in local and regional history, as theres a ton of books about that, but even outside of that everyone is able to find something they enjoy here!Also a place where you can get RSPB pin badges.

My experience in this shop earlier this month was most disappointing.I have been visiting this shop for over 30 years during my Craigendarroch timeshare week and buy something most years.This year I bought three children's books at the start of my week but forgot to take the 10% off ( for Craigendarroch owners) proof with me.Two days later I returned with it + the receipt, however I was told that the £2.09 refund could not be given.An explanation was given about card refunds and the cost to the business.I did mention customer loyalty and the very small amount due, however my £2 refund was refused.Next year I will give this shop and it's inflexible staff attitude a miss and buy family gifts elsewhere in Ballater.

Great bookshop in the lovely Ballater. Had many a great find in here. They sell secondhand and new book. Signed copies of local books are often available. They also have a nice range of gifts and cards. Plenty of free parking in the car park behind the church.

Deeside Books is at the heart of Ballater. It?s a few minutes walk from the Church Square. They have quite a good collection of second hand books. Some of them are expensive, but their collection is quite good.
