What a lovely quaint business this is. We have visited twice now. The owner Michael is a very knowledgeable pleasant person to deal with. We had a range of books to sell and he bought some for a good price and gave us sound advice for what to do with the others and we came away Happy 😊 From Nicholas and Gillian
