The houses at Hesdin are already fun, but we like to escalate that even further
Moments
Life should be fun
There’s really nothing more to it.
Fun at Hesdin is organised chaos, in the best way. Cocktail making, chocolate classes, and group activities built around shared embarrassment, mild competitiveness, and laughing at people you love. These are the moments you book — and the ones you remember.
Our Pamper@Hesdin experience is all about pressing pause between the fun. We’ve teamed up with the Visiting Spa so each of your guests can indulge in a 30-minute treatment right in the comfort of the house—no need to leave, no travel, just pure, effortless relaxation.
It’s the perfect reset before cocktails, dinner, or heading straight back to the Hot Tub.
Minimum booking of seven, so round up the girls, put your feet up, and let someone else take care of you for once.
Relaxed, indulgent, and very hen-approved.

Looking for a unique and unforgettable experience? Step into the thrill of shooting flying clays in a fun, safe, and eco-friendly environment - Arnulf boast endlessly about how amazing he is (though Lady Ava knows better).
Fun for All Ages
Big kids, little kids, and everyone in between—if you can hold a gun and aim, you’re in! Play for laughs, compete as a team, or go solo for glory. There’s a level for every skill, so everyone can join the fun… even Lady Ava might sneak a shot between ruling the kingdom.
Environmentally Friendly
No shells, no mess, no worries! Clayzar uses harmless infra-red beams and reusable clays, so you can shoot your heart out without leaving a mark on the environment—or on Arnulf’s immaculate trousers.
Totally Safe
Guns are deactivated and safe, so spectators and even the tiniest teammates can join in worry-free. All the thrill, none of the danger—just pure clay-busting fun!
Group Info
Minimum payment covers up to 12 people—perfect for parties, team events, or family gatherings.

Perfect for all levels—no experience required, just bring yourself (and maybe leave Arnulf at home, he’ll probably topple over on the first downward dog, while Lady Ava rolls her eyes in unapprovingly).

We’ve curated a selection of our most commonly requested add-ons—perfect for last-minute wins and “oh yes, we’ll need that” moments. Simply add the first item to your basket, then keep going.
Just remember to select the quantity you need—for example, how many pool towels or extra robes you need.
The best part?
All items will be waiting for you inside the house on arrival—so you can look effortlessly organised, even if it was a last-minute save.
Each residence allows a certain number of day guests, perfect if you’ve got local friends or family who simply must see you in all your glory.
Priced per person, each guest gets a robe and towel because we know they’re going to want to lounge by the pool in style.
Before booking: No cheeky overnight stays permitted, this is strictly a daytime affair, you will need to add additional beds if capacity allows. Please check with the team to see how many extra guests your property is allowed - Arnulf might have tried to sneak in a few extra friends, but even he knows rules are rules and health and safety wasn’t as strict in the 11th Century.
Create your own pizzas with a fresh sourdough base, tomato passata, a variety of cheeses, and a wide selection of toppings—from classic meats to fresh veggies and herbs. Perfect for a fun, hands-on meal together.
