We know that hen and stag weekends don’t usually lend themselves to the description of ‘subtle’, but it seems more and more ladies and gents are choosing a much more civilised occasion to celebrate their upcoming nuptials. There are many things to see and do around the St. Albans area, and we’ve chosen a couple of them to tell you about.
However, once the place and activity for the hen or stag do has been decided, somebody also needs to take responsibility for ensuring all members of the party are able to come together – sometimes from many different areas around the country or even abroad – and are able to join in with the activities as one group, moving from activity to activity, place to place, and of course all making their way safely back to their overnight accommodation. At St. Albans Car and Van Hire, we can provide minibuses with capacities of 8-9 seats, 15 seats and 17 seats. Some of our larger minibuses also feature a roof-rack – ideal for those members of the group who bring a little too much luggage!! St. Albans’ minibuses are in tip-top condition, and provide a comfortable and convenient mode of transport for the hens and stags.
A couple of places popular with groups in the area are Champneys Day Spa in St. Albans, and Atkin Grant & Lang Shooting in Markyate. Champneys offers a Hen Heaven Spa Package and is world-renowned for its high standards and personalised approach. It is a great place for relaxation and pampering, and offers indulgent spa therapies and luxury treatments such as manicures, pedicures and tanning treatments.
Atkin Grant & Lang has a ‘state-of-the-art’ shooting ground and gun making workshops, and offer “a welcoming inclusive atmosphere, catering for a wide range of experience levels and budgets”. They welcome hen and stag dos, and participants do not have to have experience of shooting or a license, as they can tailor-make the event to suit the needs of those attending.
So, if you’re the person allocated to sort the transport for your next friend’s hen or stag do, don’t fret - at St. Albans Car and Van Hire we’ll make it easy for you!
