Facilities
We haven’t checked this venue’s facilities yet. Give them a ring if something specific matters for your visit.
A specialist children's bookshop set in the countryside near Aylsham, run by a team that includes former teachers, headteachers and librarians. Families come to browse a large stock of picture books, middle-grade and young adult fiction, and non-fiction, with staff on hand to suggest a next read for a child of any age. The shop has a reputation as a treasure trove for young readers and has hosted visits from well-known children's authors, whose signatures line the walls. It is a calm, book-focused outing rather than a play venue, suiting parents who want to spend a relaxed hour choosing books together. The business also supplies schools and libraries, so teachers and school groups are regular visitors too.
