Ellieās Helensburgh Update
Weāre aware thereās been a bit of chat locally that weāre closing our Helensburgh doors, so we just wanted to clear things up properlyā¦
Firstly, we are still OPEN and trading as normal.
But what is true is that, after a lot of thought, we have made the difficult decision that Ellieās Cellar will eventually be stepping away from our Helensburgh shop, with a view to removing ourselves towards the end of June.
Weāre hopeful this might not be the end of the shop itself, as we are exploring the possibility of Richard, our manager, of taking it on with his years of experience. Nothing is confirmed just yet, but weāre hopeful that we will be able to provide a smooth transition with no closure to the store itself.
For now, itās very much business as usual, and weād love to see you in store over the coming weeks.
Just to reassure everyone, our Alva, Auchterarder and Dollar stores are all continuing as normal.
In saying that - If thereās one thing this whole situation highlights, itās how much small, local shops rely on your support. Even the odd bottle here and there and small swaps to your locals stores really does make a difference, and itās what keeps places like ours going.
Thank you, as always, for your support
Ellie & Gordon
