Planning a hen do is never easy, but it’s crucial to decide on a location as early as possible. Luckily, the UK is teeming with incredible city destinations for hen parties, and we’ve listed a few of our favourites below. Read on to find out more about some of the best hen destinations in the UK for 2022 and beyond.
- Brighton
Quirky, wild, and unconventional, Brighton calls to the hens and friends who love something a bit different. Whether you choose to dress up and go on a bar crawl or start with bottomless brunch at SIX, you’ll never be short of options in this delightful spot on the south coast. What’s more, if you stay the night, you’ll be able to nurse your hangover on the beach. Perfect!
- Your hometown
Planning for a hen party away from home can be complicated, especially when it comes down to logistics. If you love where you live and you’ve already made some of your best memories there, why not start your big hen night at home?
It’s easy to get the party going before you hit the town. Booking private cocktail lessons for your hen party could be one way to make the evening spicy from the beginning: with a charming, gorgeous host in your home, you’ll be able to play raunchy games beyond your imagination and set the tone for a truly decadent night.
- Bath
Bath offers everything you could possibly need for the perfect hen party. This ancient spa town boasts Britain’s only natural thermal pool, nestled amidst a city with striking architecture and a wide array of options for food and drink. Whether you’d prefer a relaxing spa hen weekend or a big night on the town, you can choose either – or both – in Bath.
- York
Don’t underestimate a night out in York: having topped London, Birmingham, Manchester and even Las Vegas in recent rankings for hen party destinations, you’re guaranteed to have a good night in this beautiful ancient city. There’s a lot more to the city than just quaint, cobbled streets lined with gift stores.
You’ll find independent brewers, quiet wine bars and a wide array of pubs and restaurants serving food late into the evening. It’s a great spot for foodies, music enthusiasts, and disco lovers alike.
- London
Of course, there’s always the capital. London doesn’t need much introducing, and it’s extremely likely that you’ll find a hen party activity to cover the needs of your hen and all her girls in the city. Get your tutus on and waltz down to Waterloo, or spend the day shopping on Oxford Street before sauntering to Soho for a few drinks. Whatever you fancy doing, London is sure to fit the bill.
