Ink & Ember's Ultimate Bookish Retreat 2027 Edition

THE BOOKISH RETREAT 2027

📖✨ Introducing The Bookish Retreat and she is something truly special.

If you've ever wished someone would just create the most indulgent, beautifully curated summer reading escape imaginable... we've gone and done it.

A long weekend of pure, unapologetic indulgence.

Not just a retreat. An experience. Two nights of total immersion, in beautiful surroundings, delicious food, and the glorious luxury of having nowhere to be but here, with your books (and some new bookish friends).

This is the reading weekend you've been waiting for someone to create. We went and did it.

The Setting — Molecey Mill & Estates

Set in the breathtaking grounds of Molecey Mill & Estates. A Grade II listed historic property with origins before the Domesday Book. In August, this estate is nothing short of magical — golden light flooding through original oak beams, the gentle sound of the mill stream outside your window, and grounds made for long, lazy summer afternoons. Plus a hot tub, beautiful gardens, and a dedicated yoga studio on site.

Think: if M&S did summer reading retreats. That's the vibe.

Here's what's waiting for you:

🧘 Morning yoga Saturday and a workshop on Sunday for stretching, pose perfecting, or anything you want to work on. 

🔔 A deeply restorative sound bath on Friday evening

🛁 Hot tub time (obviously)

 📖 Long, luxurious stretches of reading time — no guilt, no rushing

🌸 Craft sessions (to do when it suits you) 

📚 A summer reads book swap

☕ Tea, coffee & cake throughout

🍷 All meals & snacks fully included

And every single guest receives a stunningly curated tote bag, filled with:

💜 Ink & Ember PJs (because you deserve them)

💜 A beautiful self-care kit

💜 A snack pack

💜 Other bookish goodies

Pricing: 🌟 Shared room — £495 per person 🌟 Private room — £575

Every single penny is included. No hidden extras. Just you, your books, and a weekend that feels like a dream.
