Hen do help!

Hi You could have a look at https://partyhouses.co.uk/ they are based in the Peak District, and there masses to do around here for hen do parties.

Someone mentioned one on here a while back which sounded brilliant, but I can't remember what it was called! If I remember I'll post the link!

Try this one: www.groupaccomodation.com

I had a hen do that sounds like this! We stayed in a place called Haddon Grove Farm Cottages, about 10 mins drive from Bakewell. There are several cottages - we booked two to fit nine girls. Each was massive and beautifully decorated, with all glasses, plates, party jugs etc (and dishwasher!). The larger one had a massive dining room where we could all fit for dinner. There is an indoor pool and a games room on site. The cottages are gathered around a central courtyard with benching and landscaping.

Our schedule:

Friday night - a few glasses of wine over a few games of pool, then homemade pizzas (mocked up like a restaurant, so we all had a menu to 'order' toppings and so on). All the girls brought alcohol and cocktail recipes so there was much fun to be had!

Saturday - we rambled for a few miles to a place called Over Haddon, where we found a real ale pub (The Lathkil) with a terrace overlooking Lathkil Dale (nothing but green and hills and sunshine). They did real ale 'tapas', where you could try 1/3 pint of three different beers! We had a bit of lunch here then back to the cottages. Saturday night, the cottages owner had set up a BBQ in the courtyard, so we ate, drank, had quizzes, etc. Later on, there may have been karaoke (that Playstation thing).

Sunday - quick car ride into Bakewell for gastro pub brunch. Then a wander around Bakewell before home.

There were no heels and no makeup worn at all!

About 12 of us went here https://www.houghtonlodge.com/ in Dorset for my mates 30th was awesome own private sauna and hot tub & shared pool (you share with neighboring lodge but each have allocated time so will only be your party using it at any one time)

They can sort out outdoor type activities spa treatments etc too.

Thank you for taking the time to reply ladies-lots to look at now!

Partyhouses look ace, I've not come across that website before. Haddon grove farm looks nice too, in fact really similar to where I had my hen do in peak district (foolow)

This idea sounds like so much fun!
