Shops in or near Inverness
Since I don't want to hijack the thread about shops in Edinburgh, I decided to make a new post. I am currently in Inverness and wondered what second hand shops I should check out for kilt accessories. Anything in the surrounding area would also be great,Beauly, Dingwall, Fort Augustus, Cromarty,Dornoch, wherever.
I was also wondering where to find Robert Mackie bonnets.

Try Chisholm's for highland wear in Inverness opposite the castle, I believe. Campbells of Beauly for tweeds etc . and while you're there down the street on the other side you will find
Iain Marr Antiques... you won't be disappointed, I assure you.

Yes to Chisholm’s in Castle St., and Campbell’s of Beauly. I have no experience of Ian Marr.

The pricetag, not so much

Just goes to show there’s money in them thar hills (Highland ones that is)! I somehow think they must be relying on internet sales at those prices.

Yes to Chisholms in Inverness, and to Campbells and Iain Marr in Beauly, but I think the OP was asking about charity shops.
