How our story began ...
Founded by Cassie, a lifelong book dragon with a passion for beautiful books, our independent bookshop is a haven for readers of all kinds.
From timeless classics to new bestsellers, historical fiction to cosy fantasy, every book on our shelves has been carefully chosen with love. We believe in the magic of independent bookshops - their warmth, their charm, and the joy of discovering a new favourite recommended by someone who truly loves books.
That Little Bookshop is more than just a shop - it’s a space to slow down, browse at your leisure, and curl up with a great read and a hot drink. Whether you’re looking for your next literary adventure or simply a quiet place to unwind, we’re here to welcome you with open arms (and maybe even some cake!).

The Feast and Fiction Book club
This is the book club that changed everything. The one that introduced me to authors I’d never have found on my own, genres I didn’t know I loved, and friendships built entirely around the joy of a good story. Pull up a chair — let me tell you how it all began.”
A Love of books…lost
There was a time when I stopped reading altogether. Life got busy, the books gathered dust, and somehow the thing I’d loved most quietly slipped away. It happens to more of us than you’d think – and if it’s happened to you, this one’s for you.”
It started with a Library Card
Every Saturday morning, without fail, a little girl would walk through the doors of her local library and choose her books with the kind of care most people reserve for something far more important. That little girl was me – and those Saturday mornings are the reason That Little Bookshop exists at all.”
