The Grand old Duke may have been responsible for ten thousand men, but did he ever have to plan a hen weekend in York for the girls? We don't think so. Successful hen party planning takes a lot of skill and sensitivity, you've got a lot of responsibility on your shoulders and the first thing you need to do is pick the location, that's why York is such a great spot for a hen weekend - it's a charismatic, charming city that ticks all the boxes and will leave you and the girls with great memories.
A historic city with an impressive amount of things to do, York hens can enjoy everything from life drawing to horse racing to the ABBA experience...

Pop to the York Designer Outlet to discover big fashion labels at great prices, or explore the city centre for high-street shops
York has an excellent range of restaurants, from traditional British to Indian and Thai
For a lively, party atmosphere the Micklegate area of the city has a buzzing range of bars, pubs and clubs

One of the many appealing things about York is its size, its historical importance means that it displays all the trappings of a major English city but its relative size, less than 200,000 population, means it's a city that has everything but is easily contained. For a hen weekend that's ideal, the central cobbled streets will lead you to all the places you want to go from numerous cafés to over 300 pubs and bars and dozens of restaurants! On the hen weekend activity side of things GoHen provides a range of appealing options in York from spa and beauty treatments (from traditional massages to even getting your nails done) to action and adventure (see our York hen weekend activities sidebar) to watching and looking glamorous (horseracing and special events). If action or indulgence are not planned York can offer you some great retail therapy and for hen weekend bargains you could head to the York designer outlet!
All in all York deserves its status as a major city, and the fact that it's often over looked is to your advantage. If a special weekend in a beautiful location with plenty to do is what you're after, a hen weekend in York with GoHen could well be the answer you're looking for!
