Not only the general store and general grocers but the post office as well. This is a typical set up for the small villages dotted around the Machars where one shop has several functions to serve the local population and also meet the needs of tourists and farmers passing through. The store has been run for more years than they care to mention by John and Mary McCourtney and if they haven't got something in stock they'll get it for you. The road past, the A746 runs down to Whithorn.
