The House of Lochar - ABOUT US

House of Lochar is a specialist Scottish publisher with a particular remit to print quality books on a number of subjects including Scottish history, traditions and other titles of general Scottish interest in both fiction and non-fiction. As we approach our twentieth birthday we have gained a reputation of which we are proud, and we are delighted to have published so many books which are of enduring merit.

We strive to minimise our carbon-footprint and to avoid needless handling and transportation, therefore we stock all our titles in our own premises and offer them at the lowest prices for immediate despatch, post-free within the UK. We value and respect our customers - House of Lochar will not provide customer contact details to any third party, and accepts payments by PayPal so that the details of the transactions are completely confidential.

As a matter of curiosity, House of Lochar is based upon the remote and very beautiful Hebridean island of Colonsay, some 37 miles from mainland Scotland and with a population of 118 persons.   All our retail orders are despatched through our tiny island sub-postoffice and thence carried onwards by CalMac Ferries to join the mainland postal system.  Your books have a colourful provenance - see more about it at Isle of Colonsay
