From Hen Weekends to Corporate Retreats: Why The Hesdin Estate Is Basically Perfect
Hesdin Estate is one of those places that makes you go, “wait, this is real life?!” Think rolling countrysides as far as you can see, chic historic houses, and all the quirky little touches that make it feel like your dream weekend escape.
Whatever you’re celebrating - hens, family reunions, birthdays, or even work trips that actually feel like a holiday, well, at times - Hesdin nails it all.
Hens Without the Chaos
Ladies, grab your bride tribe. This isn’t some tiny hotel room with one shared bathroom or a city weekend of dodgy pubs. Hesdin is all about laughs, cocktails, and seriously Insta-worthy vibes.
Roll out your yoga mat on Pigertons roof terrace, sip your morning coffee, and soak in the countryside that seems to go on forever - hair delightfully messy, of course. A dip in the pool, late-night gossip and matching robes - basically the ultimate sleepover. And the beds? We provide zip and link beds which can be either super kings, or twins. This means everyone gets their own - no fighting over the covers!
Family Reunions Without the Stress
If your family’s anything like mine, you adore them… but personal space? Non-negotiable. Luckily, Hesdin has 6 houses to choose from, all with kitchens big enough to host banquets, and gorgeous gardens built for chaos (aka the kids).
When it’s time to come together, Hesdin Hall’s enormous 10M long dining table has space for the whole gang - cousins, grandparents, aunties and a whole lot more. Three generations laughing, clinking glasses, and sneaking sweets when Grandma’s back is turned. That’s family goals right there.
Best of all, we have The Wealthy Merchant, our smallest gem of the estate! Sleeping 4 as standard, it’s perfect if you love your family but want a little alone time away from the chaos.
Corporate Retreats That Don’t Feel Like Work
Team-building doesn’t have to mean trust falls and bad coffee. It can be full of decadent wine, good hearty food, countryside adventures, and meetings taking place in rooms that scream chic country manor, not corporate beige.
And when the flip charts close? It’s game on at the pool table in Lady Ava’s Tower. Who knew bonding with your colleagues could be this fun? Turns out, the secret to team bonding is less PowerPoint, more prosecco.
Birthdays, Anniversaries & Milestones
Whether it’s the big 3-0, a golden anniversary, or literally no reason at all, Hesdin turns every occasion into the moment. Dress it up, dial it down - it’s completely your vibe. And the best part? No one’s living room is on the line.
Instead, it’s beer pong in Hayho House, confetti on the floor, and not a care in the world. And when the night’s over, your biggest task is choosing between a hot tub soak or bed.
Big or Small, It Feels Personal
Whether you’re rolling in with six besties or the whole extended crew, Hesdin still feels charming and intimate. Pop in for a quick weekend or settle in for the long haul, each house has its own quirky character, perfect for your every need!
But, if you ask me, The Corn Crib’s indoor pool is the showstopper. Perfect for morning dips, hangover cures, or even pretending you’re a mermaid - it’s all yours!
Chill, Fun, and Full of Vibes
Call it what you want, holiday, retreat, escape. Hesdin is more than just a place to sleep - it’s a full on vibe. Think hot sauna mornings that melt into poolside giggles, cosy corners for “just one more glass”, and hot tub chats under the stars in Lady Ava’s Tower.
Hesdin somehow manages to be grown-up luxe and silly-fun at the same time. Fancy popping into Bath for a night out? Just a short drive, and you’re in city mode for dancing, drinks, and making more memories. Add in long lazy brunches, cocktails that never run dry, and the views that make you forget real life exists - and suddenly, you’ll never want to check out.
