Novel Escape
Dear Kindred Spirit,
Have you ever longed to step inside the pages of your favorite novel—to steal away to a grand estate, gather with kindred souls, and linger over tea and conversation as if time itself had slowed?
This summer, that longing becomes reality.
The Teapot Society's: A Novel Escape is more than a retreat—it’s an invitation for all generations to step into a world of charm, depth, and connection. For three magical nights, we’ll gather in our historic Virginia manor, walking where history lingers, reading where great minds once thought, and forging friendships that feel as if they’ve always existed.
Moments that feel like a Jane Austen novel came to life.

If you join the retreat, you will automatically become a
Teapot Society Member
A society united by a love for great books, conversations filled with depth, & a love for history. This summer, we’ll each immerse ourselves in Jane Austen’s Sense & Sensibility, reading it before the retreat. Then, on a most magical retreat night, we will curl up on blankets and in comfy chairs and watch the film together under twinkling lights in the Mayhurst garden.
Think of it as our own Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society—a gathering of women who cherish books, truth, beauty, and the kind of conversation that lingers long after the last candle flickers out.
