What's included
We aim to make things as easy as possible for you to spend the maximum amount of time reading. Depending on the retreat you choose, the inclusions will vary, you can view the inclusions on the product pages, otherwise a few of the retreat inclusions are listed below.
If you book one of our 2 night retreats in the Hunter Valley you will stay at either the Lorn Rose Farm (during the warmer months) or our Mount View property (during the colder months). Both properties boast numerous reading areas, a designated quiet reading space, luxurious private bedrooms, shared and private dining spaces, and grounds to explore.
The Hunter Valley retreats are all inclusive stay-in retreats, designed to make sure you don't have to leave the property during the retreat. Chef prepared menus including breakfast, lunch, morning and afternoon teas and dinners. No need for you to lift a finger, everything is supplied for you.
If you attend one of our 3 night retreats in Katoomba or Beechworth you are provided with beautiful private bedrooms for your stay, breakfast each day and dinner each night. Some lunches are not included. You will be provided with an itinerary of activities including bookshop walking tours, high teas and ghost tours which are all included but also totally optional. The 3 night retreats are all about reading and relaxing, but as its over a longer period, we like to include some outings as well.
No matter what retreat you book, all guests of our retreats receive a bespoke reading prescription customised to you (more on that below). As well as a retreat gift bag full of goodies and reading material we think you'll love (from your prescription).
