The Well Read Retreat invites you to spend two restorative nights at the historic White Hart in Salisbury, Connecticut—a beloved New England inn nestled in the heart of Litchfield County. Known for its elegant accommodations, cozy gathering spaces, exceptional dining, and timeless charm, The White Hart offers the perfect setting to step away from the noise of everyday life and settle into a slower, more intentional rhythm.

This retreat isn’t about Rushing Through a Schedule. It's about Creating Space to Read, Rest & Reconnect.
Over the course of three days, we'll gather for thoughtful book discussions, silent reading sessions, movement and meditation, journaling, seasonal meals, wine tasting, local bookstore browsing, and moments of quiet reflection. Whether you arrive knowing no one or come with fellow readers, you'll find a welcoming community of women who share a love of stories, connection, and cozy luxury.
