About us

Dan visited his first book fair at the age of 9 and started bookselling at the 16, touring PBFA book fairs with his parents, Elizabeth and Alan Ahern (Ivelet Books, in Redhill and Godalming).

40 years later, with his partner Beth, Daniel Ahern Books buys and sells books on a range of subjects at book fairs and online. The business offers regular catalogues on architecture, gardening and natural history.

We have retail outlets in Hay on Wye and Tetbury and welcome customers, old and new, to our home in Tidworth by appointment where a cup of tea or a glass of wine, depending on the time of day will be available.

Dan and Beth have a particular interest in the house and garden, how these have evolved and the people and movements which have shaped the process.
