This charming bookstore offers a wide variety of second-hand books and also has a section dedicated to crafts, crystals, and antiques. The owner is friendly and helpful, and the store has free off-road parking. Although it may be a bit difficult to navigate for those with mobility issues, the store's unique selection and cozy atmosphere make it worth a visit. The owner mentioned that new books are delivered weekly, so there is always something new to discover. Located in a historic building, this bookstore is a true gem for book lovers.

This bookstore was really great! My friends and I specifically came here on our day off after researching good bookstores in the area, and we were not disappointed. We spent a good hour and a half browsing the wide range of books available. The owner was friendly and helpful, even making us a cup of tea. It was a pleasant experience to browse at our leisure, and we ended up leaving with a fair amount of books for a good price. We would definitely visit again, especially since there is convenient parking at the back.

Brilliant place for good quality second hand books. 50,000 and counting, all organised into labelled sections so you can find your favourite authors, genres and non fiction subjects. Upstairs is a room seeing knitting wool, some jewellery and a few craft bits.

The establishment itself was excellent, but unfortunately, the service was lacking. The female server was condescending and impolite, which has deterred me from returning to what is otherwise a wonderful restaurant.
