Unique hen weekends in Cornwall

When you’re planning a hen weekend we understand that the pressure is on to make sure it’s a break to remember for everyone. Booking Bosinver is guaranteed to put a smile on everyone’s face, and thrill the bride-to-be. That certainly was the case for Kate when her friend Sam organised a surprise hen weekend for her at Bosinver – read all about it here.

Here’s what will make it a weekend for you all to remember…

Self-catering hen weekend cottages

If you’re looking to stay in a luxury 17th century holiday cottage, our Farmhouse can comfortably accommodate 12 hens. You’ll love the décor, bursting with character and cosy touches, plus everything you need to relax in style including its own a hot tub!

Our Lowen cottage also offers huge timber beams, open plan living and beautiful views down the valley. It really is the jewel in our crown and of course, it has its own hot tub too!

Needing more space?

You’re welcome to hire out two or more of our hen weekend cottages. They’re all just a hop, skip and jump away from each other so you can pop in and out at your leisure.

Celebrate in style

If you order your decorations and party kit to arrive before you do we are happy to pop them in your cottage for you. Here are some ideas and suppliers to get you started for the big celebration surprise! 

  • Helium balloons and pre-strung banners from a website such as Bubblegum Balloons or Party Decorations (sorry we are unable to blow up individual balloons for you).
  • Celebration cake – we recommend you get in touch with Julie, a fantastic local cake maker on 01726 61339 or by email julie-waters@hotmail.com
  • A bottle of bubbly – try 365 Drinks
  • Flowers – if you would like some beautiful locally grown hand tied flowers delivered to your cottage (or reception) during your stay get in touch with Juliet Gould of Cornish Farm Flowers on 07944 253933 or by email juliet.e.gould@gmail.com Examples of her arrangements can be viewed on her Instagram page

If ordering any celebration items for your special occasion please be sure to tell us what parcels to expect, ensuring your name and cottage name are on all deliveries. Our address is Bosinver Farm, St Mewan, St Austell PL26 7DT

Luxurious holiday cottages with indoor pool

This is what clinches it for most of our hen weekend guests. Our luxury, self-catering cottages have been lovingly equipped with everything you need for an unforgettable break, but you’ll love starting the day with a warming, pre-breakfast dip in our indoor heated pool before enjoying your private hot tub in the afternoon!

It’s not just the cottages. There’s plenty to do!

It’s not just about the cottages, there’s so much to do within the grounds of our Cornish farm, and more to explore in the local area. To help you plan your weekend, we’ve put together our guide to Hen parties and girls great escapes including our top tips for local restaurants and hen do activities.

Wedding party bliss

We’ve had many wedding parties here over the year, and we’re proud that many friends and families have stayed on at Bosinver to extend their special day! Our beautiful landscape and gardens also make the perfect backdrop for those extra-special photographs, so if you’d like to know more let us know.

Travel in style

For a truly memorable trip, how about a shire horse carriage ride? Alfie Trethewey and his team can organise anything from a leisurely tour around the beautiful Cornish countryside to a trip to the pub for up to eight people!
