We celebrated a 30th birthday at Ash Barton and enjoyed every minute. We made good use of the BBQ and loved spending time around the fire pit. The chapel was used to hold a party, and we spent one evening having a pool party. The games room was fun and it was lovely to have so much land surrounding the house.

Large House for Stag and Hen Dos in North Devon, UK
Hen and stag dos in Devon are becoming more and more popular. And it’s easy to see why. There’s no point traipsing off to Europe and spending all your time in an airport, when you can have way more fun down here in beautiful North Devon.
Having your pre-wedding shindig at Ash Barton gives you and all your besties the opportunity to have a proper house party. For ladies looking for a hen party house with a swimming pool, this is it. Beauty treatments, pyjama parties, hanging out in the kitchen drinking Prosecco, and enjoying a beautiful meal served in our dining room or chapel are all popular with the girls too. While the lads, on stag weekends, opt for quad biking, clay pigeon shooting, go karting, playing pool and drinking beer by the fire pit.
And more and more couples are opting to book Ash Barton for their joint stag do and hen party in Devon. Hag party, shag party, call it what you will. It will be memorable.
For a full list of recommended suppliers see below.
All you need to know about Ash Barton:
- Party capacity for 200 people
