I visited this amazing book shop a couple of months ago and I must say that it was a truly enjoyable experience. The shop is beautifully organized with alphabetical shelving of books in excellent condition. The happy and wonderful lady who runs the shop was so welcoming and helpful, allowing me to browse through her collection of books at my leisure. I was impressed with the variety of books available in the store, and it was obvious that the owner has a great passion for books. She was willing to go out of her way to help me find the book I was looking for and even suggested some new reads for me to try. I can confidently say that I'll be back to this fantastic book store with bells on! It's a must-visit for any book lover, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great book shopping experience. I hope to visit the area again in the future, so I am looking forward to visiting the shop again to keep looking over the amazing selection of books and the warm and friendly service.

Lady in the shop was lovely. Books in this store where a very eclectic mix and very different titles to what i have seen in other bookshops. Here i found some very interesting titles and some very old, beautiful copies of fabulous classics like orwell and poe. Well worth a rummage and do take your time if you can. There are a few treasures to be found in this shop but you need to dig deep. Well worth a trip.

Rainy Day Books is a charming little shop with many obscure literary resources you may struggle to find elsewhere. The owner is passionate about her work there, and is always up for a chat. There are three cafes very close to the shop also …
