3. Bring your book & unwind

Bring your current read (or that TBR title you’ve been saving!) and enjoy guilt-free time surrounded by calm, comfort, and kindred spirits.

Because every reader deserves a treat

Imagine hours of guilt-free reading time...

No distractions, no pressure. Just you, your book, and the soothing hum of pages turning.

Our retreats are designed for readers who crave quiet.

Settle in with tea, treats, and beautiful surroundings. Catch up on your TBR pile, meet fellow book lovers (if you fancy chatting), and leave feeling lighter, calmer, and recharged.

It’s not a book club. It’s your time to read – properly.
