Our Ayrshire showroom and shop is currently closed for refurbishment. We're still fully open for online orders (or phone orders on 01292 571 019) while work is underway!
Sadly, we have had to temporarily close the Karitek shop in line with Government Covid-19 restrictions. We are still working on emails and online orders and hopefully helping to get you ready for the new season. For locals, orders can be collected from Ardrishaig and we may also be able to deliver in some instances. We'll re-open as soon as permitted. In the meantime stay safe!
