A morning perusing books old and new. This bookshop is a hidden gem nestled away in the beautiful countryside of Shropshire. Also on site is a delightful little cafe serving the most amazing coffee and homemade cakes. I personally tried the coffee cake and it didn't disappoint. The young gentleman who served us was exceptional in manners and service. We felt so welcome here. The owner we met couldn't have been more helpful. She was full of passion and her love of books was evident. Thank you so much. We will definitely be back 🤗

No doubt the best bookshop I've ever been to. It's every avid old soul reader's dream come true. When you think of the ideal countryside bookshop experience, this is it in the flesh! Staff is absolutely incredible, very knowledgeable and insanely helpful. They've got a café with high quality coffee and homemade cake, as well as events and workshops. But most importantly—several floors of everything from the most niche books to a variety of editions of your favourite classics.

Lovely book shop. Bigger than you'd think and nice wee coffee shop. Opening times don't match so worth checking there
