My Favourite Place!

Calling any fellow bookworms.... you HAVE to visit Barters Books! It is one of the largest second-hand bookshops in Britain, and created in what was once a Victorian Railway Station. This does nothing to convey the atmosphere of the place though, and it is the relaxed cosiness which is its greatest appeal. Squishy armchairs gathered round open fireplaces, helpful staff, tea and coffee for customers with just an 'honesty box' for paying, pet dogs are welcome; you are actively encouraged to make yourself at home and while away several hours here! PS. Don't forget to visit the café!

Lovely :)

We had a lovely day, nice and quiet for Autism, not too bad access (my partner has EDS) and the cafe catered to dietary requirements quite well 😊

LOVE this place!

Read a review about this place on Euan's Guide a while back and have been desperate to visit ever since! It didn't disappoint - from the roaring log fire to the Christmas 'book' tree, trainset and cheese toasty it didn't disappoint. Left with far too many books in my bag - that's Christmas sorted!
