Big book sale at Arlington Court

Take a look through our big selection of second-hand books and pick up a bargain for World Book Day.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

To celebrate world book day, we will be bringing out lots of our second hand books for a bumper sale. Come along and have a browse!

All money raised will go back into looking after Arlington Court, from planting up the gardens, conservation in the house and carriage museum and working on the wider estate, to being able to put on more events like this in the future.

We’re always happy to accept donations of books, please do drop them in to visitor reception during opening hours (10am-4pm).
