Rent an Air Bnb

There are many options now for Air Bnb’s in the UK, there are lodges, houses, apartments and even stately homes. You will be sure to find something that’s in your favourite location, suitable for your number of hens and in the style to suit your plans. Hiring an exclusive place for the weekend is a great idea if you want to have a weekend-long sleepover with all of your hens. To make it even more special you can arrange to have your favourite food delivered, hire a cocktail connoisseur to keep your glasses filled with only the best cocktails and play games whilst you catch up with each other and have a great time. You could even have a classic sleepover one of the nights with girly films, pyjamas and nibbles.

Splash Out and Go Abroad

If the budget fits then book a long weekend to your favourite country or even try somewhere new, decide what you want out of your weekend to help you decide the location. If you are after a party weekend with late nights and plenty of opportunities to sample the local alcohol then somewhere like Benidorm or Magaluf will be a good place to start. If this sounds like the exact opposite of what you want and you are looking for something much more low key, then somewhere like the Amalfi Coast or a Greek island such as Santorini or Skiathos would be better suited to you. If you are looking for a middle ground between the two then check out Tenerife and Zante, they have the best of both worlds.
