Situated on the quaint area of Angel Lane in Penrith Town Centre this family run jewellers is…read moredefinitely top notch. I visited here in search of my engagement ring as Carlisle only had shops that were commercial and I wanted something a bit more special. After having a full consultation where the the owner himself talked us through the different types of settings and stones, and then what the diamond ratings equated to we went away with a lot of food for thought. So much so that we went back the next day and ordered a gorgeous platinum solitaire which was very high on the diamond scale and was going to be made particularly to my finger size which was also a half measure. No altering of another ring here as it was made just for me. It only took two weeks for my ring to be made although it felt like an eternity as I was so excited. I particularly really liked the service we recieved here. There was no pushy selling tactics and we were given all the time in the world to decide which was best. It felt very personal, not like we had just chosen a ring from a shop window as the owner even rang his stone dealer to see what was available just for me. I would definitely recommend this jeweller as they were just brilliant.

I really liked Westwood Books the first few times I visited Sedbergh. Now, however, I'm not so…read moresure. Firstly, the ladies who work there aren't all that friendly. There are so many welcoming, talkative shop owners in the town, then you walk into Westwood and get glared at like you're about to shove The Tale of Tom Kitten under your pack-a-mac (personally, I'm more of a Jemima Puddleduck / Mrs Tiggywinkle kinda girl). Not a great way to be greeted. Secondly, you can actually find cheaper second hand books in other stores in Sedbergh, like the Tourist Information Centre book shop. And thirdly, their fiction section isn't as ample as I'd like it to be. If you're into history, travel, gardening, reference books, walking guides and art then you'll probably find something to suit you at Westwood. But if, like me, you prefer your literature a little less 'real' and a means of escaping the mundanities of modern life, you won't have a great deal to choose from. Two positives about Westwood though: you can help yourself to their coffee machine and use their toilet if nature calls as you're stuffing books into your pockets. Result!

Westwood Books is a bookworm's paradise. It's huge - on two floors - and absolutely packed with…read morebooks. Most are secondhand but there are a few new volumes on offer on the ground floor as well. The shop is divided into handy areas to help you find the kind of book you're after, but I invariably find myself browsing in nearly all of them just to see what's there. The fiction section is very strong and reasonably priced. You can pick up a hardback novel in decent condition for less than a fiver. Unfortunately in my case that just means I buy more! It's not a shop to visit if you're in a hurry as you can spend hours in there (and probably should or you'll miss a lot) and it might be dangerous (for your wallet) to go in without a spending limit in mind
