With that big day fast approaching things might just get a bit crazy with the last minute preparations, so make sure you get away with your besties for a relaxing couple of days before then. Group Stays has some amazing big houses to rent for hen weekends, and most of them are tucked away in quiet spots amidst the most beautiful countryside. We're not just talking space and style, we're talking seriously large holiday homes with swimming pools, hot tubs, saunas, steam rooms, games rooms, and BBQ lodges; we've got the lot.

We like to think we cater for the more refined kind of hen weekends, you know, afternoon tea with vintage china on the lawn, a gentle amble through the fields and lunch at a lovely country pub, a pootle about the hills on horseback, that sort of thing. In fact our properties are popular for the outdoorsy type of girls on a hen weekend, because with the majority of our large group holiday homes in Somerset and Devon, there's plenty of opportunity to get out and get active - watersports, archery, quad biking, horse trekking, cycling, clay pigeon shooting, whatever you're into really. The more sophisticated ladies might prefer a stroll around a beautiful historic house, the shopaholics might like a day in the city, but really you don't have to go anywhere, you can book entertainment and catering to come to you at your fabulous hen weekend house. How do you fancy a casino night? Or your own cocktail waiter? A life drawing class? You can even learn a new dance style - Flamenco, Salsa, Bollywood or Street; we've got it all covered so that you lot just have a great time together and take away some very happy memories. Have a look at our big houses to rent for hen weekends; find the perfect rural retreat, make it special.
