What to ExpectThis isn’t a structured retreat — it’s about having company for the markets, author talks, and endless browsing. Come and go as you please, knowing you’ve got a comfortable retreat house to return to at the end of the day.

What’s included:
2 nights’ shared accommodation in Clunes (solo occupancy or twin share with a friend)
A cozy, bookish group to explore the festival alongside (or retreat from when you need quiet).
Evening gatherings to relax, swap stories, and share your festival finds.
A small retreat gift to make the weekend sweeter.

Meals and festival tickets are self-catered, giving you freedom to enjoy Clunes’ many food stalls, pubs, and cafés, and to pick which Booktown sessions appeal to you most.
