Afternoon Reading Retreats

Take a few hours for yourself, away from the stress of everyday obligations. Our afternoon retreats provide a peaceful sanctuary to unwind and immerse yourself in your current read—no distractions. Between page turns, nibble on lunch or a selection of sandwiches, sweet treats, and bottomless tea or coffee.

Why Readers Love Our Afternoon Retreats

A book with the pages folded into a heart

Read, relax, recharge...

Our only goal is to allow you the freedom and space to get lost in your book - no judgment here! Socialise with other readers, or don't. 


Afternoon retreats allow you to enjoy an afternoon tea or lunch, then find the perfect spot for some you time. Later, you'll go home with a special gift, feeling at peace with the world.
