Escape Into Stories
Reset, Read, Reconnect.
Amazing things happen where waves meet words.
Coastal Chapters brings readers together in charming Scarborough venues to share surprise books, creating intimate connections.
Our retreats and festivals invite you to relax, explore new stories, and enjoy the magic of books surrounded by like-minded friends.

You Time.
What’s better than a good book?
A good book and a proper soak. We’ve partnered with Temple Spa to get you all the favourites - perfect for bath nights, slow Sundays, taking time for yourself and switching off properly.
Coastal Chapters
Spring Book Festival 2026
Held at the beautiful Humble Bee Farm
In the Staxton Wolds, our book festival was held on the second day of our Spring Retreat.
Featuring multiple authors, stalls, book readings, and creative writing.
Where Community Meets Storytelling.
A peaceful weekend away for book lovers who need a proper reset.
Coastal Chapters Retreats are designed for slow mornings, cosy reading time, and relaxed bookish company — with space to unwind at your own pace.
Come for the stories, stay for the calm, and leave feeling lighter than when you arrived.


Coastal Chapters Book Clubs are cosy meet-ups in Scarborough cafés and venues, designed as a proper “time for you”.
Each session includes a surprise book reveal (unwrapped on the day) and a relaxed, welcoming chat. No pressure, no pretence — just great stories and good company.
