Luxury hen party houses in the UK
Whisk the bride-to-be away to a quaint thatched cottage by the sea or a spa manor in the country; our luxury hen party houses in the UK make for an alternative and sophisticated send-off to marital bliss.
Gone are the days of forced fun hen parties (sayonara, fancy dress, questionable lollipops, and life drawing classes); now is the time for down-to-earth pre-wedding girls' trips. Think wine-swilling in an award-winning vineyard, barefoot renditions of If You Like Pina Coladas, or one last sail before the veil on a boat off the Cornish coast. The beauty of hiring one of our luxury hen party houses in the UK is having a place to call your own. Whether you're a fun-loving hen party looking for the turquoise sea, white sands, and local sangria that a stay near lively St Ives brings, or a cool collective seeking heated pools and yoga decks, we have a house to fit the theme.
Mimosa picnics on the beach, surf retreats in shorty suits, lavish banquets prepared by a private chef, and laughter-fuelled hikes to the summit. Whether you go coast or country, our carefully selected suppliers can bring the extra touches to take your hen party up a notch; think grazing tables, balloon sculptures, luxury car hire, and forest-bathing. Set up the movie projector for a private screening of My Best Friend's Wedding, douse yourself in fringe and rhinestones for a glittering garden party, or float pool-top on an inflatable watermelon. Now's the time to sweep yourself off your own feet, and celebrate the sisterhood that chaperoned your route to "I do".
