The space

Tall Trees Glamping is made for hen groups who want the fun of a weekend away without losing the comfort of a proper bed, a hot shower and a warm, sociable base. Set on the edge of the Somerset Levels near Glastonbury, this relaxed countryside hideaway combines safari lodge glamping with cottage-style amenities, giving you a peaceful setting for catching up, celebrating and enjoying time together at your own pace.

For a smaller hen weekend, one luxury safari lodge sleeps up to 6 guests across three separate bedrooms, making it a brilliant choice for a close-knit bride tribe. If you are planning a larger celebration, it is worth enquiring about the additional lodges and cottages on site, as the wider Tall Trees set-up can work well for groups who want to stay close together while still having their own sleeping spaces.

The setting is a big part of the charm. The site sits in a large field with trees, planting, a wildflower meadow and orchard, so there is plenty of space to slow down, share a drink in the fresh air and make the most of the countryside surroundings. Fairy lights, outdoor dining space, a fire pit and a pizza oven add a lovely festival-style feel, ideal for hens who prefer a relaxed celebration over a packed city itinerary.

Inside the house

Each safari lodge has the feel of a glamping escape but with the essentials covered: mains water, electricity and proper plumbing. The sleeping arrangement is especially handy for hen groups, with two king bedrooms and one twin bedroom, giving you flexible space for the bride, bridesmaids and close friends. There is also an en suite walk-in shower room, so you have the practicality you need for getting ready before a day out or a cosy night on site.

The lodges are designed for easy group living. You can enjoy slow breakfasts, pre-dinner drinks and relaxed evenings without everyone being split up across separate hotel rooms. The combination of indoor comfort and outdoor space means the weekend can flow naturally, whether you are planning a chilled morning, a hosted activity or a celebratory meal under the lights.

A standout feature for hen parties is the large games and function room. It comes with table tennis, foosball and a pool table, giving the group an easy entertainment option whatever the weather. It can also be transformed into a dining space for catered meals, with seating for up to 30 people when arranged in advance, so it is a great option if you want a special hen dinner without heading out.

Hen weekend highlights

This is a brilliant choice for hens who like their weekends relaxed, personal and activity-led. The outdoor group dining area is ideal for a long lunch, grazing boards, fizz in the sunshine or an evening meal with everyone around one table. The BBQ, fire pit and pizza oven bring plenty of hen-friendly options too, from a casual cook-up to a hands-on pizza workshop, which is a popular on-site activity.

The games room adds a playful element without needing to organise much at all. Start a table tennis tournament, split into teams for pool, or use the space as a weather-proof hangout between activities. Because the room can be dressed for dining, it also works well for a surprise meal, speeches, games or a themed evening.

There is plenty of scope to personalise the weekend. Previous groups have brought in activities such as silent discos, yoga sessions and mixologists, so you can shape the stay around the bride’s style. Think morning yoga in the countryside, a pizza-making session in the afternoon, then cocktails and games in the evening. While the emphasis here is not on a spa hotel or late-night clubbing, the setting gives you something just as valuable: room to gather, laugh, eat well and enjoy the company.

Location & getting around

Tall Trees Glamping sits near Glastonbury, an atmospheric Somerset town known for its quirky high street, independent shops, cafés, spiritual heritage and the famous Tor. It is a lovely place for a hen weekend wander, whether you are browsing crystals and boutiques, stopping for lunch or heading up to the Tor for countryside views and group photos.

The surrounding area gives you lots of options for a daytime itinerary. Cheddar Gorge and Wookey Hole are within reach for caves, dramatic scenery and something a bit different, while the Mendip Hills are ideal for walks and fresh-air adventures. If your group fancies a day trip, the Jurassic Coast beaches can be reached by car, and nearby historic houses and gardens include Longleat, Stourhead and Montacute.

Wells, with its beautiful cathedral, is also close enough for a relaxed outing, and Bruton offers galleries, independent shops and The Newt for groups who enjoy stylish food, gardens and design-led days out. A car is the easiest way to explore the wider area, especially if you are planning activities or day trips, but the real beauty of Tall Trees is that you do not have to go far to have a full weekend. With outdoor dining, games, catered meal possibilities and hosted activities available to enquire about, the site itself can become the main event.
