The Old Water Tower Luxury Suffolk Hen Weekend Retreat
A Hen Weekend House Unlike Anywhere Else

Forget standard countryside cottages and predictable party houses The Old Water Tower is in a league of its own.

Set inside a beautifully restored Grade II listed former water tower in the seaside village of Thorpeness, this extraordinary coastal retreat combines luxury interiors, unforgettable social spaces and panoramic sea views to create the ultimate Suffolk hen weekend base.

Sleeping up to 20 guests across five stunning floors, this is the sort of property that instantly upgrades the entire weekend.

Heated Pool, Hot Tub & Sunset Drinks

Outside is where this place really comes into its own. The landscaped garden wraps around a heated outdoor pool, an 8-seater wood-fired hot tub and an incredible alfresco kitchen complete with pizza oven and South African-style Braai.

Think slow mornings with coffee in the sunshine, long lunches around the outdoor dining table and late-night drinks under the pergola while someone inevitably says, "We should do this every year."

Designed for Big Group Getaways

Inside, the property blends modern luxury with the character of the original tower. At the heart of the house is a huge state-of-the-art kitchen with Miele appliances, wine fridge, multiple ovens and a massive island built for grazing boards, prosecco and group dinners.

There's also a cosy cinema snug, yoga space and a jaw-dropping fifth-floor lounge with 360-degree views across the Suffolk Heritage Coast.

The seven flexible Super-King bedrooms can also be arranged as twins, making it easy to suit your group setup.

Explore Thorpeness & The Suffolk Coast

The location is every bit as impressive as the property itself. Thorpeness is packed with coastal charm, from its quirky mock-Tudor buildings and beaches to rowing boats, tennis courts and scenic walks along the Suffolk coastline.

It feels peaceful, stylish and completely different from the usual hen destinations.
