Simon Finch Norfolk is an oldfashioned bookshop with unique character situated in the elegant Georgian market town of Holt, in North Norfolk.

The shop has barely altered since it was first built over three hundred years ago, making a visit to look for a book a fascinating and enjoyable experience as one can’t help but appreciate many of the building’s original features.

Simon Finch Norfolk Norwich Reviews


Big in the game! - Ugh where to start with this place? First off I reckon it's one of the best 5 book shops I've ever been to in my life and I've been to a couple.

Everything is second hand which is cool and the building is ancient. The stairs are ricketing and the ceilings are low and there's a bit of dust everywhere and the philosophy section is actually on the stairs a couple of flights up!

However you'll have to go far and wide to find a bookshop with such a wide and diverse selection of books. The front of the store is mainly given up to really old books between 80-150 years old - I found some book about 101 years old about life in Paris written in English in the most exquisite binding for £15!!!! How can anything that old cost so little?

Out the back of the ground floor is that arts section (aren't they always here?) and then upstairs you find fiction, philosphy, biography, a massive travel section and foreign language books.

I often come here just to hang out in the place and soak up the atmosphere it's that awesome - they have thousands of books and any time I have bought stuff it's been super reasonably priced. I love it and if you like books it's well worth coming here. You won't be dissapointed.
