Reviews
"Such a nice shop, an eclectic selection of books and friendly owner. I always look forward to visiting when I'm in Westport."
"This is a lovely small bookshop with a wide and interesting range of secondhand books. All books are in excellent condition and if you are interested in vintage publications this is a gold mine!"
"I ordered online. Very happy with the order. It was carefully wrapped and the old book was in a great shape and condition. Highly recommended!"
"Beautiful shop, lots of taste and style. I believe this was the former Timetravellers Bookshop. Helpful staff, beautiful town."
"I bought a book from them through Abebooks. Very friendly and helpful. Steffen went above and beyond and sent me a picture of the book before I placed the order. I got the book super fast and it came with a lovely handwritten note. Couldn't be happier."
