Buckingham's oldest building is now a secondhand book store and cafe owned by the National Trust.
A haven of calm and excellent cuppas with books too. Delighted we discovered this idyllic place and with lovely staff , maybe volunteers? Free entry and this venture supports the National Trust
Beautiful building, nice coffee and the best volunteers! Found it by a very nice accident and felt very warm welcomed, even with quite active 2 y.o. Thank you :)
Discovered purely by chance! A lovely and historic setting for a bookshop, with the bonus of really great coffee and knowledgeable staff. Well worth a visit.
The oldest building in Buckingham but much altered over the years. Home to a 2nd hand bookshop as well as some of the nicest Nat. Trust volunteers that I've ever come across. Well worth saying hello to them and learning some of the history of this fascinating building. My photo doesn't do it justice and the inside is well worth a look.
Really welcoming, friendly staff. Not much in the way of history (there wasn't a guidebook and not much to look around). Really nice tea and cake though . 2nd hand book shop nice, good choice of books . There is parking by the local supermarket. If you are already in the area it's worth stopping by.
Nice place to stop for a coffee and a piece of cake, peruse the many second hand books on sale. This is a 15th century chapel with Norman influence in the structure which was restored by Gilbert Russell in 1875 and is now owned by the National Trust.I believe it is the oldest building in Buckingham once having been a school, hospital and church. The staff are very friendly and will happily tell you about the history of the building. Parking is non-existent so you will have to find somewhere to park nearby and walk there.
