How to Plan a Hen Do Weekend in Bath (That Everyone Will Actually Enjoy)

Series: The Ultimate Girls’ Night Guide by Fit Butlers

Let’s be honest – planning a hen do is no easy job. Trying to please the bride, the bridesmaids, the cousin who doesn’t drink, the wild friend who drinks a bit too much, and still keep the vibe fun and fabulous? It's a lot.

But if you’re organising a hen party in Bristol or Bath, you're already off to a great start. These two cities are hen-do gold – packed with charm, nightlife, spas, scenery, and all the ingredients for an unforgettable weekend.

At Fit Butlers, we’ve been part of hundreds of hen weekends, so we know exactly what works. Here’s your no-stress guide to planning a Bath (or Bristol) hen do that the whole gang will love.

1. Choose Your Base: Bristol or Bath?

Bath is perfect for the more relaxed, luxe-loving bride. Think spa days, prosecco brunches, and cottage-core picnics.Bristol brings the party vibes – with incredible nightlife, street food markets, and cool venues.

Can’t decide? Combine both! They’re just 15 minutes apart by train or car.

2. Get the Accommodation Right

Book early – especially for summer! Look for:

• Central apartments in Bristol for nights out

• Country houses near Bath for cottage weekends

• Airbnbs with hot tubs (you’ll thank us later)

Make sure your space has enough room for games, decorations, and (most importantly) a butler in the buff if you’re going for added cheekiness.

3. Build the Perfect Schedule (Without Overbooking Everyone)

Your weekend doesn’t need a military itinerary. A good hen do has just a few solid anchor activities:

Friday Night: Arrival, drinks, dinner – something relaxed

Saturday Day: Spa, brunch or a fun group activity like naked life drawing

Saturday Night: Dinner, cocktails, dancing, or a surprise strippergram

Sunday: Chill brunch or stroll around Bath’s Roman Baths or Bristol Harbourside

4. Book a Butler (Trust Us)

No matter your itinerary, booking a butler in the buff adds guaranteed laughs. Ours come with charm, wit, and six-packs – but they’re also super professional and bring the party in a way everyone can enjoy (even the shy ones).
