I stumbled across this bookshop while searching for a specific book I wanted to read and couldn’t find in stock locally. I found the book I was looking for and at such a reasonable price too, in comparison to the chain stores. It arrived promptly with a personal note. I went back online in search of the second and third book in the series and ordered those as well. Again my parcel arrived promptly and with another personalised note. Such beautiful customer service from this store. Thank you so much.
One of the most comforting bookshops I’ve been in. Petronella’s is a true gem within Lake Tekapo and houses many fabulous reads. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in town
Lovely book store fantastic selection. Owner/assistant was very friendly Recommend to all book lovers
Cutest wee bookstore with an amazing range of interesting books on everything from astronomy to gardening, and beautiful cards, posters, postcards, journals, etc. The lady working was so lovely, gave us some old display posters with framing already on them, instead of the normal stocked ones, for no extra cost, as she said they wouldn't be going on display again. We really appreciated that and will definitely stop back in next time we find ourselves in Tekapo :)
