Brighton is one of the UK's most popular hen party destinations and it's easy to see why, the seafront, the Lanes and the abundance of characterful houses available for weekend hire make it a natural fit. Our mixologists are based locally and cover the whole of Brighton, Hove and the surrounding area.
Brighton has been welcoming hen parties for decades and has the infrastructure to prove it, hundreds of large Victorian houses and flats available for weekend hire, more bars and restaurants per square mile than almost anywhere else in the UK, and a seaside energy that makes everything feel like a celebration. The North Laine is the independent shopping heartland; the Lanes is the jewellery and vintage quarter; Kemptown is the LGBT+ hub; and the seafront provides the backdrop for the whole thing.
