Visit the famous pebble beach, take a wander round the lanes and then head back to your hotel or to the house where you can cook dinner together or hire a private chef and have a glass (or two) of vino!

The Capital of the UK hosts an impressive range of bars, pubs and clubs alongside its famous landmarks and shopping hotspots making it a favourite hen do location. If you’d like to come home from your hen weekend with a new skill, then why not try a cocktail making class or a dance experience? From afternoon tea to Adonis Cabaret, London really has something for everyone.

If you’d love a hen weekend that’s lively and a little different – head west! Bristol is brimming with fantastic hen activities for the whole group to enjoy. Satisfy your sweet tooth at a chocolate making class or if gin’s your thing, book a gin tasting experience. If you’d prefer to get active (and be in hysterics) then you need to try out a West Country Themed Games Day!

This historic city is super picturesque with its backdrop of castles and cathedrals – excellent for getting that perfect Instagram shot. Whilst you’re in York, why not take the opportunity to exercise your brain power and try out an escape room? Alternatively, you can test your warrior stength in an axe throwing experience.  

If you’re searching for a destination that offers a wide range of activities and great nightlife, visit the vibrant capital of Wales! Fill your lungs with fresh Welsh air as you hit the trees and embark on a treetop challange or get extra adventurous and try white-water rafting.

Nottingham is a great choice of location for your hen weekend because it’s so versatile. If you’d love an active, adrenaline-induced weekend then you should book an assault course!
