Clemo Books is a proudly independent bookshop in Newquay, Cornwall. We stock new fiction, non-fiction, children’s literature and a lots of Cornish books. We started out as a pop-up bookshop and now have a permanent home on Bank Street in Newquay. We’re curating books and creating community!

Join our book club! We have a subscription book club here at Clemo Books. Sign up, pick up your book and join us at the meet up in Newquay to discuss that month’s pick. It’s a great way to find new authors and meet new people.
