An amazing little treasure trove of books. I can't wait to go back and lose myself there for the day. The cafe is great too and the hot chocolate and biscoff cake were delicious

An absolute gem, has a charm that you can not simply buy. It's a very cosy and peaceful book store which has a century old feel too it. Has separate sections and rooms for different books. Has a really nice children's room which you can read to your kids. Has a lovely vegetarian cafe with vegan options too. It's a must visit if your heading to the peak district.

This is one of the best bookshops around and it has a lovely small cafe with very tasty, healthy and vegetarian food.

Brilliant book shop. Absolutely full to bursting with new and second hand books. The cafe (hidden behind a bookcase) serves delicious food and drinks too. If you've never visited before, you must!

Scarthin Books is the place to go for books and for its beautiful café. It is the loving creation of its owner, its manager, the cafe owner and its wonderful staff. A trip to Scarthin is always a highlight of any trip in the southern Peak District.

Great book shop, you need plenty of time in there as there are so many books to look at. There's a cosy little cafe within the shop, parking in the village is easily available. I've always returned home with a good haul of books to add to my collection, primarily of art.
