Westport is a firm favourite with Hens in Ireland. It’s no surprise really as this great little town has something to suit any group looking to book a 2019 Hen Party.
Not every Hen is looking for that crazy night out on the town. Some prefer to relax and unwind and spend quality time catching up with their best friends before the big day. Self-catering accommodation and Glamping are always fantastic options for this type of group and Eaglewood Lodge in Westport is a fantastic choice should you fancy a hen in the west.
Stay in a stunning lodge with amazing scenery that can only be described as something from the movies. You’re only a short drive from Westport town and surrounding activities but this style of accommodation offers the perfect opportunity for the Zen Hen and a truly relaxing Hen party night with a few glasses of red.

Donegal

If you’re looking to add a little exploration into your hen party weekend and see parts of Ireland, you might not regularly see or think of going to. Then we can’t recommend Donegal highly enough. It’s simply breath-taking and it has spectacular backdrops for any outdoor activity. And when it’s time to hit the town the nightlife is as good as anywhere.
There are plenty of fantastic accommodation options available throughout Donegal with the Redcastle Oceanfront hotel boasting some of the counties top seaside views, comfortable rooms, incredible spa facilities which all make for a relaxing Hen Party weekend.

When it comes to accommodation, Dublin delivers again with options to suit every budget. If you plan on staying in the heart of the city, the Westin Hotel will not disappoint. You’ll be able to relax in style and you will struggle to leave the comfort and elegance of this hotel. It’s centrally located, within walking distance of O’Connell St, Grafton St, Temple bar and all the major nightlife spots. May we also suggest afternoon tea in the Atrium lounge. It’s so good!
