I love this place! It's collection of CS Lewis writings, as well as those of the Inklings, is extensive. The display is fascinating and the staff, knowledgeable and eager to help.

A must for any Lewis fan! Didn't know this place existed. Well worth the visit. The level of access to books written by and about Lewis & others is extensive. The owners really want us, the general public, to have access to these resources. Excellent, wonderful, amazing, nostalgic!

This is totally a hidden little gem of a place. Found out about it somewhat by accident, and have been back twice. If you are at all familiar with any of the authors, this is a must stop.

Fabulous place. Numerous resources, great authentic pieces from CS Lewis and Chesterton. Check out their community events too!
