Hot Tub & Games Hen House near Bath | Sleeps 16

The space

Set in the Somerset countryside near Bath and Bristol, Cameley Lodge gives your hen group the best of both worlds: a peaceful place to stay together, and easy routes into two brilliant cities for cocktails, activities and nightlife. Based in Temple Cloud, this large holiday house is made for sociable weekends, with generous indoor and outdoor spaces where everyone can gather without feeling squeezed in.

Sleeping up to 16 guests across 9 bedrooms, the house works especially well for a mixed hen party group that wants comfort, flexibility and plenty of room to spread out. The setting feels private and relaxed, with countryside views, a lawn, terrace and outdoor seating areas that are ideal for a slow morning coffee, a celebratory lunch or a glass of fizz before heading out. There is also a hot tub for long, bubbly catch-ups, plus a pool and BBQ for easy group entertaining when you want to keep the party at home.

This is a great choice if you are planning a hen weekend with a mix of ages or guests who want different things from the trip. Some can head into Bath for spa time or dinner, others can stay back for garden games, hot tub time or a film by the fire. It is relaxed, practical and spacious, with enough entertainment on site to make the house feel like a key part of the celebration rather than just somewhere to sleep.

Inside the house

The interiors at Cameley Lodge are designed around group time. The kitchen diner is a standout feature for hen weekends, giving everyone a central place to come together for breakfast, grazing boards, cocktail prep or a private chef-style dinner. Doors open from this space onto the terrace and lawn, so it is easy to move between indoor dining and outdoor drinks when the weather is kind.

The lounge is comfortable and welcoming, with plenty of sofas, a TV and a log burning stove for cooler evenings. It is the sort of room that works for chilled arrivals, games, speeches, present opening or a low-key night in after a busy day in Bath or Bristol. The house also has a dedicated games room, complete with a pool table and table tennis, so there is no need to rely on the weather for entertainment. It is ideal for a friendly tournament, hen party challenges or keeping the group amused while dinner is cooking.

Bedrooms are spread across 9 rooms and include a mix of queen, double and twin-style sleeping arrangements, giving flexibility for friends, sisters, cousins and mums to share in a way that suits the group. Several bedrooms are accessed by lift, and there is accessible accommodation available, which can be especially helpful for multi-generational hen parties or guests with reduced mobility. Bathrooms are available across the house, including an accessible WC on the ground floor, making the stay easier for a larger group.

Hen weekend highlights

The hot tub is a natural gathering point for a hen stay here. Use it for a relaxed first night with prosecco, a post-activity soak after a day in Bath, or a peaceful morning session before brunch. With the countryside around you and plenty of outdoor space, it feels like a lovely treat without needing to leave the house.

For sunny afternoons, the garden and terrace give you room to make the weekend feel personal. Set up a BBQ, lay out a buffet, plan garden games, or enjoy drinks at the picnic benches while taking in the views towards Cameley Lake. The outdoor space is also useful if you are booking extras such as a mobile beauty therapist, yoga instructor, cocktail class or grazing table, as there is plenty of room for the group to gather and move between activities.

The games room adds a fun, easy-going element to the weekend. Pool and table tennis are great ice-breakers if not everyone knows each other, and they work well for team challenges or bride-versus-hens competitions. Add in the pool, hot tub, BBQ and big communal spaces, and you have lots of ways to celebrate without needing a packed itinerary every hour.

Location & getting around

Cameley Lodge is located in Temple Cloud, a well-placed Somerset village within easy reach of both Bath and Bristol. Bath is a brilliant option for a stylish hen day, with its thermal spa culture, rooftop drinks, restaurants, independent shops and pretty streets for wandering between activities. Bristol brings a livelier city feel, with cocktail bars, harbourside restaurants, comedy nights, clubs, escape rooms and creative workshops. Both cities are around 30 minutes away by car, so pre-booked taxis or a minibus are the easiest choice for nights out.

If your group wants daytime adventures, the surrounding area has lots to offer. Chew Valley Lake is nearby for walks, fresh air and waterside scenery, while Cheddar Gorge, Longleat and Glastonbury all make memorable day trips. Beach time is also possible, with Weston-super-Mare and Burnham-on-Sea reachable for a change of scene, fish and chips or a relaxed coastal afternoon.

The countryside location means you can keep things calm at the house, then dip into the action when you choose. It suits hen groups who want space, views and on-site fun, but still want the option of city nightlife, spa sessions, outdoor activities and destination dining.
