Imagine a whole weekend where the world finally goes quiet… 🌿📖

In June 2027, we’re opening the doors to something we’ve dreamed about for a long time…
our very first Reader’s Retreat.

A gentle, soul-soothing escape created for people who feel most themselves with a book in their hands.

Slow mornings with coffee and pages.
Deep breaths.
Guided moments of calm.
Soft conversations that don’t feel forced.
Time to rest without guilt.

Set in a peaceful countryside space, with access to a warm pool, sauna, and hot tub, this is your permission to completely switch off from the noise, the pressure, the constant doing.

Everything is taken care of for you.
This will be a fully all-inclusive retreat, with beautiful food, comforting spaces, and thoughtfully planned activities designed to help you feel grounded, rested, and quietly inspired again.

Spaces will be very limited, with shared rooms as the main option and only a small number of single rooms available. Early bird pricing will sit in the mid hundreds.

If something in your chest just softened reading this…

Join the mailing list now for first access to early bird tickets before they’re released publicly.

Because sometimes the most powerful thing you can do…
is step away for a while and remember who you are when life is quiet again. ✨

We’ve created a beautiful collection of children’s books that gently help little ones understand emotions, build confidence, and feel safe being exactly who they are. All beautifully written and illustrated to open the conversations that really matter.

We can also help you find the right story for whatever your child might be going through, whether that’s grief, losing a pet, anxiety, friendships, body confidence, starting school, or big life changes.

Because emotional wellbeing starts early ✨

Message us or pop into the shop and we’ll help you find the book that gives them the words they don’t yet have.

Ahead of the month-long road closures coming up, we just wanted to gently reassure everyone that we are still here, still open, and very much still hoping to see you.

At the moment, we are expecting pedestrian access to remain via Mary Street as normal, as well as access from the rear car park. Dunstall Street car park will still be accessible, but only via Dunstall Street itself (shown in green).

We know changes like this can feel frustrating, inconvenient, or just enough to make people rethink a visit, and we completely understand that. As a small, independent business, moments like this do feel a little daunting for us. Footfall matters, familiar routines matter, and your support truly keeps the doors open.

If you are unsure about routes, access, or just need a bit of reassurance before visiting, please never hesitate to ask. We are always happy to help guide you.

We really hope the closures do not impact too much on the calm, cosy atmosphere and experience we try so hard to create, and we are so grateful to everyone who continues to choose us, even when getting here takes a little extra effort.

Thank you, honestly, for sticking with us through the things we cannot control. It means more than we can ever put into words 🤎🫶🏼

Introducing The Words That Stay.
A collection born from the belief that words are magical, the strongest things on this earth.

Words can make us laugh, feel seen, offer comfort, or hold us together when nothing else can. Whether shared in fun, love, grief, or quiet moments in between, the right words stay with us forever.

This is only the first part. There are truly beautiful pieces still to come, and we cannot wait to share them with you.
Please stay tuned 🤎
