A charity-run bar, restaurant and events space in Maybole has closed its doors due to rising energy costs.
Goudie’s, owned by charitable organisation Carrick Community Leisure Group (CCLG), was a meeting hub for several community groups in the town, including the Maybole Pipe Band, Maybole Over Fifties and Slimming World.
A spokesman for CCLG, who thanked the staff, customers and community groups for supporting the venture, said the “incredibly difficult” decision to close was due to the facility being “impossible to continue with in this current economic climate.”
