If you've been landed with organising the hen do, you know the shape of the problem. Fourteen people, fourteen budgets, three who can't do that weekend, two who don't drink, and a bride who said "nothing mad" while clearly meaning "something". The Belfast default — a block of hotel rooms and a table booked somewhere on Saturday night — splits the group across floors, costs more per head than anyone expects once taxis and bar prices are counted, and gives you about four hours where everyone is actually together. One house solves it. Eight bedrooms, every one en suite, so nobody is queuing for a bathroom and nobody ends up on a pull-out bed feeling like the afterthought. That single detail is what most hen weekends get wrong. There's a private bar you stock yourselves, which means supermarket prices instead of bar prices and is comfortably the biggest saving of the weekend. Hire a barman in for the Saturday if you'd rather nobody in the group is pouring. The dining room seats sixteen at one table, and that's where the night actually happens. Two hot tubs, a BBQ area, and a garden that takes a marquee.


£900 per night at weekends for the whole property. At sixteen sharing that's £56 each. Midweek is £700, or £44. You're paying for the house rather than per person, so the price doesn't move when two people drop out three weeks before. Sixteen in beds, four more on airbeds, day visitors welcome. For the Saturday: the seaweed baths in Newcastle are fifteen minutes away and go down universally well. Murlough Beach in the morning gives you the best group photo you'll get all weekend. Or bring the entertainment here — cocktail-making, a masseuse, a grazing table, a life-drawing class. Having the whole property means nobody else is around. Dog friendly with a secure garden. Fully licensed. Free parking. A refundable security deposit applies, standard for whole-house rentals, and we ask for reasonable consideration of neighbours late at night — we're rural, not a city block. Weekends in season book furthest ahead, so check early if you have a date. Tell us your numbers and what kind of weekend you're planning.
