“Girly Spa Heaven”
Written on: 14/05/2013 by Crockford2be
The whole package was fantastic. The fact that we had a spa on site, breakfast provided and a transfer into the town was fabulous. All the small things that you sometimes forget were all thought about and arranged in advance! The spa was gorgeous, we all loved the hot tub and what girl doesn't like a massage! The cottage itself was quite quirky, plenty of space and enough bathrooms for us all. Plenty of mirrors and some interesting pictures! (read more)

“Bath Luxury Lodges & Stables ”
Written on: 08/05/2013 by Sian_0711
We had an absolutely fantastic weekend at the Bath Luxury Lodges & Stables (2No lodges rented 3rd-5th May 2013). The owner welcomed us on arrival with a quick tour, basic food items were already at the lodge to get us started. The lodges were fitted out to a very high standard and very roomy, all 11 of us were able to meet in one living area, it was great. Day 2 we were taken into Bath for a dance master class with an instructor - theme was Footloose - we'd highly recommend it! With a... (read more)

“Gloucestershire White House - Brilliant Hen Weekend”
Written on: 08/05/2013 by Aggs (1 review written)
I recently booked the Gloucestershire White House for a hen weekend with 22 ladies, and it was absolutely perfect! Within easy reach of both Gloucester and Cheltenham (we visited both over the course of the weekend.) Acacia Cottages organised beauty therapists to come to the house to provide manicures, pedicures, massages and facials - this was such a lovely treat for everyone on arrival, and the ladies were great. One even stayed late for us in order to catch one of the hen girls who had... (read more)

“Simply Stunning Cottage”
Written on: 04/04/2013 by jojo87 (1 review written)
A group of 12 of us went to the Simply Stunning Cottage for a hen weekend. The house was beautiful with lots of space so we never felt crowded. The house had lots of rooms, including a conservatory with a heated floor! There were lots of bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms. We had booked wine tasting, the lady was fantastic and we got to keep the open bottles of wine. We also booked a chef to come and cook us a three course meal and it was delicious and the chef and the waitress were lovely.... (read more)

“Fantastic Hen weekend at Bath Barns!”
Written on: 13/03/2013 by stephanie1987 (1 review written)
I would like to thank everyone involved at Acacia cottages for helping me organise & co-ordinate such a fantastic weekend. Being cheif (and only!) bridesmaid for my older sister who wished to invite 18 hens away on a weekend seemed like a daunting task, however, one that was made relatively easy with the help of Acacia. The weekend was loved by eveyone and everyone was so so impressed with the standard of the barns- we could not have wished for better. I would highly recommend the ladies... (read more)

“Fantastic Weekend!”
Written on: 05/02/2013 by masante (1 review written)
Just back from a fab weekend staying at Somerset Barns. As chief bridesmaid for my sister, I was left with the task of organising a hen weekend away for 13 people. I found Accacia Cottages online and immediately got in contact. It was all pretty straight forward and my contacts were really helpful and organised. The Somerset Barns were beautiful and better than I had hoped for. All of the hen party were equally impressed. We were met by the very friendly owner [name removed] who made us... (read more)

“Hen do at Somerset barn”
Written on: 24/10/2012
We had such a wonderful time. The Somerset Barn is lovely and homely. The setting is gorgeous. I wanted to organise a hen do that my sister would enjoy - within her comfort zone - no veil's, L-plates or embarrassment. And acacia cottages were brilliant. There was eight of us in total and the cottage was a good size. Everything ran like clock work. The chef was lovely and the food was great - with the table laid and all cleared up afterwards - marvellous. And the organisation of our meal... (read more)

“Log Fire - Bath Hen Do”
Written on: 24/10/2012 by Brigi323 (1 review written)
Being the organiser for a hen party of 22 people is not an easy job but Acacia were fantastic and simplified everything. Having found the house the rest came with, the treatments were brilliant and were a big hit, the catered meal was 5* tasty and fresh plus the caterers laid the table, served and cleaned the kitchen. The house was beyond expectation, a large country house with all the homely touches, it felt welcoming especially with the log fire already stacked and ready to be lit. We had... (read more)

“Bath Modern Property Review - Hen Party”

From the start of the booking right through to the end, everything about our stay was great. Nerys handled all of extra ciricular activities and bookings, including SPA Day, Cocktail Lessons, Meal, Club guest list and taxi's. All of the comms were helpful, friendly and Nery's offered advice and suggestions on places to go and where to eat. Not sure how she managed to source such a good looking Cocktail guy, but we very impressed with that too! The cottage itself was spacious, clean and... (read more)

“Perfect hen weekend”
Written on: 22/08/2012 by BevNorthDevon (1 review written)
A group of 7 of us stayed at the Bath Modern for a weekend in August. The property is amazing, with so much space, the rooms all nicely decorated, beautiful country views and so close to Bath. The hot tub was lovely and the weather was surprisingly hot & sunny for us. The taxi service included in the package is such a good idea, they were exactly on time for each pick up and a couple of the drivers were really helpful pointing out places of interest on route and recommending places to go....

“Hen party at Butcombe Farm, Somerset”
Written on: 10/08/2012 by AliceDewing
What a fantastic weekend! I thought living outside of the uk and trying to organise a hen party for 18 girls would be a challenge but Acacia Cottages, and in particular, Nerys DAniels were so unbelievably helpful. Everything was perfect for our arrival. The cottage itself was fantastic, even more so considering it had to fit 17 girls in! Plenty of space and we were all very impressed with the fully equipped, industrial kitchen! The cottage was wonderfully clean and everyone was pleased with... (read more)

“Hen party weekend in Chew Magna”
Written on: 01/08/2012
As chief organiser of my sister's hen do, I was a little nervous about arranging a weekend for 10 ladies. I need not have worried - we had a fantastic time! Our farmhouse was enormous, and beautifully decorated, and we couldn't fault the facilities. There is even a grand piano in the living room. Additionally, the owners were very accommodating as we arrived early and could drop off some luggage. Acacia Cottages arranged for us to have pamper sessions on one afternoon, which were lovely and... (read more)

Acacia cottages took all of the hassle out of organising a weekend away for 12 ladies. We stayed at the Bath Modern which is set in beautiful surroundings but only 10 minutes from the centre of Bath. The house itself is spacious and there is plenty of room for 12. It feels luxurious and very relaxing. We booked a chef for the Friday night when we arrived and the food was fabulous and it was a real treat to be cooked for especially after our journeys. We booked a cocktail lesson for the...

“Farmhouse Cheltenham - Absolutely FABULOUS!!!”
Written on: 21/03/2012 by KirstySB
After much consideration and research into properties and companies, we decided to book the Farmhouse Cheltenham for the hen party of the century. We found Acacia on the internet and from start to finish, can't praise them enough for their attention to detail and assistance in executing such a fabulous two night break. The house itself was absolutely amazing, but then to add in the superbly cooked dinner at the cottage by our own personal chef, and then to throw in the naked butler, it was... (read more)

“Amazing house in Stroud - perfect for a hen weekend...”
Written on: 23/01/2012
We’re back from Stroud and wanted to drop you and Acacia staff a note to let you know what a fantastic time we had. The house was amazing and perfect for what we wanted. Getting somewhere with enough space for 19 people with a dining table we could all fit around and a big open space where we could all lounge around was a real challenge but the Stroud house was just right. The caretaker was really helpful and nothing was too much trouble for him. The coach transfers worked perfectly... (read more)

Organised a hen weekend for my friend in the Chill Out Cottages in Bath.

The cottage was lovely and very spacious for 10 girls and their clothes! The pool on site was brilliant and the treatments we had on the Saturday morning were fantastic! The whole weekend was lovely and very good value for money. Would definitely book a weekend... (read more)

“Fab Hen weekend at the Bath Modern”

Celebrated my hen weekend in Aug 2011 at the Bath Modern property through Acacia Cottages. I cannot recommend enough! I was looking for a property for me and my 11 friends to stay at for a weekend and this place is perfect. I was worried it was going to be cramped for 12 people but it was massive! 5 bedrooms including the master bedroom which is massive and fits 4 people in easily- big lounge, separate dining room and garden with hot tub was a bit plus! The views from the back of the... (read more)

I have just returned from an amazing hen weekend with Acacia Cottages. We al loved every minute and found the service from booking to the stay perfect! It was always easy to get through to the person organising the weekend and it was a freephone number (great as a lot of holiday companies are 10p+ a minute). The cottage we stayed in near Bath was stunning and very modern inside (no chintz!). The activities organised for us were spot on - we had a cocktail lesson at the cottage and went... (read more)

Used Acacia cottages for my hen weekend in bath last summer and have finally got round to writing a review. I found them brilliant to deal with and they were able to personalise every aspect of the weekend to my specifications. As they are a small company I liked the fact that I always dealt with the same person who already knew what I was planning for the weekend. We were also able to tailor the weekend very much as we wanted it. The place we stayed in was a large house really rather than a... (read more)

Acacia Cottages were really helpful when I first emailed them, as they put together some personalised example packages for my hen weekend. I decided to go with them as they were very professional and the prices were great for what I got. When we arrived near Oxford all my group were impressed with the standard of the cottages. We had such a fab weekend and I would just like everyone to know about them. Thanks Acacia! (read more)
