Book Club : The Quiet Chapter
Take a break from the rush of everyday life and spend the day in slow company—with a book in hand and the sound of birds, trees, and flowing water around you. Our full-day Book Club experience invites you to connect deeply—with literature, with others, and with yourself.
Hosted in the serene setting of a 250-year-old restored heritage home, the Book Club at Tara isn’t just about reading—it's about unhurried conversations, good food, and gentle reflection, all in the lap of nature.
What Your Day Looks Like:
✅ Your Book, Your Pace – Bring any book you love. No assigned reading, no pressure to share.
✅ Light Breakfast on Arrival – Settle in with warm food, cool shade, and fellow readers.
✅ Solo Reading Time – Find a corner that calls to you—under the trees, on the swing, in the courtyard.
✅ Optional Sharing Circle – A gentle space to talk about your book—or simply listen in.
✅ Free Journaling or Nature Walk – Take time to reflect, write, or wander through paddy fields.
✅ Simple Vegetarian Lunch + Evening Chai – Nourishment, community, and comfort.
✅ Keepsake Photos – Moments captured for you to take home.
You also have access to board games, hammocks, and shaded outdoor seating all day long. Feel free to bring a journal, sketchpad, or just yourself.
