“Our bookshop volunteers work tirelessly ensuring old and new books are donated daily to the bookshop, providing each visitor with an extensive range of subjects to choose from. Their knowledge and expertise has ensured that each visitor to Castle Ward has had a memorable experience during their visit,” said Jacqui Baird.
All money that has been raised from book sales over the past eight years has funded much needed projects at Castle Ward such as the farmyard animal enclosures and the forest lookout.
The bookshop is currently open to visitors on Saturdays and Sundays from 2-4pm and will be open daily from 12th March 2-5pm. There are many subject choices to be found such as history, children, art, photography, ancient history, travel and much more.
If you would like to leave book donations for the bookshop, please call between 9.30-5.00pm daily or telephone 028 44881204.
