Where stories step off the page and into real life.
At Pocket Diary Book Club, retreats are more than getaways — they are curated journeys that blend books, landscapes, and kindred spirits.
From the peaceful forests of Dehradun to the majestic walls of Gajner Palace, from heritage trails at Kumbhalgarh & Bambora Fort to intimate riverbank gatherings in Ghanerao — each retreat is a chapter of its own.
Mornings begin with tea and poetry. Days unfold with shared silence, open reading circles, and nature walks. Evenings bring music, stories, and conversations under the stars — sometimes in jungles, sometimes by lakes, sometimes on trains, and sometimes in palaces where time slows down.
Whether you’re flipping pages beside a bonfire, reading in a moving train, or exchanging thoughts in moonlit courtyards, our retreats offer a space to pause, connect, and breathe literature.
📍 Past Chapters Include:
- Ghanerao River Retreat
- Royal Gajner Palace Edition
- Kumbhalgarh & Bambora Fort Journeys
- Dehradun Hill Retreat
- Train Editions & Full Moon Specials
This is where books travel with you, and every reader becomes part of the story.
Ghanerao Jungle Lodge
A cup of coffee, a dead bark of tree draped in a string of light, pen, personal diaries and books.
Watching the stars, listening to Rumi’s poetry in the dark, lamp lit night, we wonder
Fateh safari resort
A trip which started with a sleepy night, where I’m questioning another wild decision I took, putting myself in between 15 strangers (alas, I had my hoodie, but still!!) for the reasons
The Salwoods at Dehra
Stepping into the cottage felt like, home, at last. I could just sit by the glass wall of the room, remove the curtain and watch, the maidaan at the bottom of the valley to the right. The winding road, the trees, the बाड़ of the resort to keep wild animals out.
Gajner Palace
The palace, a centuries-old hunting lodge for the royals of Bikaner, now offered us an ideal stage for our book-reading sessions on the bank of a lake.
Bambora Fort
Enjoy your serene escape with pottery, horses & just reading a book… in this iconic 400 year old fort of 1711 AD steeped in history. Come immerse yourself in heritage and unparalleled luxury
