A Herefordshire hen party might not be the first thing that springs to your mind when planning a weekend away – but if you and the hen enjoy relaxation, luxury stays and some of the most stunning views in the country, it certainly should be! Located in the West Midlands, Herefordshire is one of the most rural counties in the country, and is well known for it’s absolutely gorgeous scenery. Of particular note is the Wye Valley, which is a designated area of natural beauty, which tells you just how gorgeous the area there is.
The vibe of a Herefordshire hen party will always be different to any other hen party you may be considering. It’s not going to be you and the girls crammed into a chain hotel, eating the same food you eat at home, drinking in the same bars that you drink in at home and doing the same things you do at home – this is a hen party for those who like to be different, and if different is what the hen enjoys then surely you should be embracing that, right?
The true appeal of any Herefordshire Hen party are the luxurious hen houses that are available for you and the girls when you travel to that area. After all, going away and staying in a hotel is one thing, but when there is a big group of you, it’s even more fun to be away in a place you can treat as your home for the weekend, and who hasn’t dreamed of living in a Manor house or gorgeous country lodge? Yes, these luxurious hen houses can sleep anywhere up to thirty people (depending on the precise property you end up looking at), and they are all absolutely stunning. Many of them have hot tubs, games rooms, beautiful en-suite bedrooms, stunning outdoor areas and basically just being a house where you and the girls can really embrace your inner queens.
That’s not the only accommodation option of course – there are a range of boutique hotels, guest houses and more that might be suitable for you and the girls, but really for most groups we send on a Herefordshire hen party, it’s the luxury hen houses that are the reason to go and that always get the rave reviews, so why not give them a look?
As Herefordshire is a more rural county than many others you might be considering for a hen party, you might be worrying about the quantity, quality and range of activities available for you and the girls. Well, worry not! Many of the activities you would consider as standard for a hen party are available on a Herefordshire hen party – and in fact, if you are in a luxurious hen house, a lot of those activities are able to be arranged to come to you, making it even easier!
Popular activities that can be arranged to come to the house include Cocktail Making (because who doesn’t want to create some of the tastiest drinks they’ve ever encountered under the watchful eye of a professional mixologist), Nude life drawing, a pamper day where a travelling beautician or two will make you all feel like a million pounds, or even a stripper if you want to add that little bit of naughtiness to the weekend away.
There are all kinds of other things that you can do as well – depending on your exact location. If you are in the Wye Valley, then there are all kinds of water-based activities available on the river, with canoeing, paddleboarding, kayaking and many more. There are also plenty of places where you can enjoy a few more physical land-based activities as well such as Archery, Axe Throwing, Gorge Scrambling and many more. Regardless of how active or relaxed your group want the Herefordshire hen party to be, you won’t be lacking in options.
While exact recommendations for eateries and other options can vary based on where you are in Herefordshire, there are a huge number of options for you – local pubs where you can get some of the best pub food you’ve ever encountered, a range of other world cuisine options dotted around the area and even some Michelin starred options! Alternatively, if you choose to book a luxury hen house for your Herefordshire hen party, then you can utilise the amazing facilities to either cook for yourselves or maybe, for one of your activities, pay for catering or a private chef to come in and really treat you – after all, you only get one hen party (hopefully) so why not make the very most of it?
For some groups, the freedom of having a luxury hen house in a quiet and peaceful area means that they choose to make their own nightlife. After all, if there’s enough of you, why not just enjoy some drinking and dancing within the privacy of your huge manor house instead of having to go out anywhere?
For others, however, a night out is a traditional part of any hen party, and to those people I say that you can still do that at a Herefordshire hen party. After all, if you are in the Wye Valley area (for example) then you are mid-way between Cardiff and Gloucester, two cities that offer a great selection of nightlife and which have wildly different vibes, so you can visit whichever suits you best (or you can try both if you feel like it)!
In short, a Herefordshire hen party is a perfect destination for anyone who is after a relaxed vibe and beautiful scenery, but still wants to be able to party hard when they want to. For many, it is a perfect combination, and if you’ve read this far, I suspect you are probably a part of that group. So why not ask?
