YOUR WEEKEND AT A GLANCE
THURSDAY
Guests will arrive throughout the afternoon and evening, allowing plenty of time to settle into Fitzroy Inn and ease into the slower pace of the weekend. After a welcome dinner, we'll gather for a relaxed book swap with our gifted books and an evening of conversation with fellow readers.
FRIDAY
Friday is dedicated to exploring some of the Southern Highlands' most beloved destinations. We'll travel together by private bus, enjoying a long lunch at Berkelouw Book Barn, browsing bookstores in Bowral, and finishing the day with a wine tasting at Artemis Wines before returning to the inn for dinner.
SATURDAY
Saturday offers a slower pace, with plenty of time to enjoy the inn and its surroundings. Guests can participate in Courtney Peppernell's exclusive poetry workshop, spend time reading, and join optional crafts and activities throughout the day, with no pressure to do anything other than relax.
SUNDAY
The weekend concludes with a leisurely hot breakfast and a final chance to enjoy the company of fellow guests before check-out at 10:00am. For those not ready to head straight home, we recommend taking the scenic route and spending a little longer exploring the Southern Highlands.
