HEN PARTY GLAMPING 2024

Gather your hens hens and pack up your wellies because a weekend of hen party glamping at our exclusive hen camp awaits! 

Since 2018 we’ve been working in conjunction with Hillside Campsite to bring you our dedicated hen camp.

Located just on the outskirts

At hen camp, you can enjoy your whole hen party experience. You can drink wine, chat, laugh and play games without the privacy issues that you would have on a public campsite.

Please do remember that it is a campsite though, we’re not a wild party venue and if you’re looking for a raucous weekend – it’s not for you. 

It’s perfectly positioned for hens who want a glamping experience, to get outside and have fun, but also have the option of heading into a city for a night out. 

If hen camp is fully booked over your preferred dates, or you have your own venue, or would like to look at private venue hire, where you might be able to party later, then please look at our mobile hen party options. 

WHAT's at HEN CAMP?

There are two separate glamping hen party areas on the site: Tropic and Tribe

Each camp is in its own 1 acre paddock, and like our mobile bell tent hire, you’ll arrive to find your hen camp all set-up and ready for the celebration.

Because hen camp is set up from April – September each year we’re able to provide you with some extras you won’t find included in our mobile bell tent hire service,

In 2021 we built the kitchen ‘huts’. Each hut contains your fridge and freezer, as well as lots of worktop space, shelving, and all your plates, glasses, mugs, etc… It means more room in the chill out bells as we’ve moved all of this out, and more space to prep your food and drinks. 

Camp opens for 2024 on the 19th April and closes on the 8th September!

GROUP SIZES

The maximum group size for hen camp is 20 people. You can’t bring extra tents yourselves, or sleep people on the floors in the sleeping tents, or in the chill out bells!  

For larger groups please check out our mobile hen party hire.  

WHEN CAN WE ARRIVE?

Check in is from 3pm on your day of arrival and check out is at 12pm on the day of your departure.

WHAT ACTIVITIES CAN WE DO WHILE WE'RE THERE?

We’ve handpicked some activities that are close to camp and firm favourites with previous hen groups – and also some local suppliers who can run workshops on site for you. 

Shake it down with some Bollywood dancing, chill out on the water with SUP, wear yourselves out with an aqua assault course, or head back to camp to have a BBQ or Pizza prepared for your group.

Strippers aren’t allowed on site at any time.  

HOW DO WE BOOK?

Booking is easy! Drop us an email and we will send you a link to the booking page. 

When we send you the link we’ll reserve the date for 24 hours.

WHEN DO WE PAY?

Money is often the hardest part of arranging any hen party. Because we want this to be as stress free as possible we only take a 25% deposit at booking.

The balance isn’t due until 28 days before the date, and we will invoice you when it becomes due. 

At the same time you will receive an invoice directly from Hillside for the balance of your campsite fees.

If you would like to pay in instalments please just ask.  

DAMAGE WAIVERS

As you’ll have seen above under the costs section there is also a returnable damage deposit per camp area.

Damage deposits are in case the camp or it’s contents are damaged during your stay. 

We have reduced this for 2023 to a set £250 our camp.
