Blackpool The Grand National

The Grand National is arguably the most thrilling and exciting horse racing spectacle in the world and is without a doubt one of the best ways to have fun during your hen weekend. Aintree is a buzz of excitement all weekend long as the horses line up to tackle the most gruelling race course in the UK. You and the girls can be there soaking up the atmosphere, having a few drinks and hopefully winning a bundle of cash when your horses come romping home.

Your hen group will have tickets for Tattersalls Enclosure. These were greatly enhanced in 2007 with the completion of the new Aintree Pavilion, which boasts the most atmospheric enclosure of any British Racecourse. As well as enjoying access to the Aintree Pavilion you will also be able to sample the bars and catering areas of the Red Rum Garden as well as the legendary Irish Bar in the Princess Royal Stand. Tattersalls tickets also permit access for viewing of the parade ring and winner's enclosure, ensuring you sample the best of Aintree's unique atmosphere during your visit.

Accommodation in Liverpool is scarce and expensive on Grand National Weekend. Your group will therefore be staying at a central Blackpool Hotel and coach transfers will be provided to Aintree.

All Testimonials

The hen weekend was brilliant we all had an excellent time, if I have to organise another one I would organise through your company.  Thanks for all your help with everything. We all enjoyed the activities the best. Thanks again for everything

Thank you myself and all the girls had a fantastic weekend! every one of us would recommend the cocktail making it was brilliant...the hotel and service was fine.

by S Harris (May 2012)

We had a absolutely brilliant night!!! The cocktail making was fantastic and the party buss even better. The hotel was much better than I expected. After I had read reviews I was quite worried but the hotel was clean with a great room...and the staff were really friendly and helpful so that was good too...Thanx for providing a brilliant hen night. Please tell David thank you as he really saved us from the mistake I made in booking the wrong night (doh!) and answered all my questions and most of all set up the hen night with everything we wanted perfectly.

We had a really good time, the Hotel was great, Paul the manager made us more than welcome. We didn’t have any complaints at all. We had a ball and the photo’s reflect that………….Thanks very much :)

by S Jones (May 2012)

Yes we had an excellent time and I think the biggest thank you should be to you guys at Escape especially David, for making it relatively easy for me as organiser. The guy from the butler company called Harry, was lovely, prompt, polite, and very very good sport, he had no quarms about being 'quiz master' for some of the games the girls had prepared.   The accomodation was well appointed, clean and good location...The cocktail making was fantastic, much better than similar activity that some of us had done previously with work, the mixologist was very very good and entertaining, the food provided was an adequate snack (in line with what we were expecting, we ended up staying a while and buying more) and two full drinks each plus the cocktails we made tasting was good value we thought. They were exceptionally accomodating of one of our guests who was on tranquilisers folowing a fractured lumbar spine and made sure she was comfortable and made up non alcoholic mixes for her.   All in all a very positive experience and I have already passed on your companies details to other people. Thanks once again.

I would like to say thank you. We all had a fantastic time. The food at the restaurant you booked for us was very enjoyable. Our favourite part was the hotel. It's facilities were amazing and the staff were vey frendly. Bar service was a little slow but we were happy with the atmosphere so didn't mind waiting around a little longer for drinks...Thank you for efforts in organising this trip. It's much appreciated.

by H Ahmet (May 2012)

Our hen weekend was excellent and we can not fault the service we received both from yourselves and your suppliers.Hotel was excellent all rooms big, clean, comfortable and nicely furnished. Breakfast was great, cooked items very fresh and not at all greasy and a good selection of pastries, fruit and cereal. The spa was very nice but small, three of our party had massages which we all enjoyed. Restaurant food was very nice and plentiful and all the staff friendly and welcoming, they had sat our party under a heater and provided blankets as it was a little chilly. They also gave us a free jug of sangria. The maps provided with the VIP cards were a great help in finding our way around as many of the nicer bars are spread out. All in all an excellent night and I would have no hesitation in recommending Escape trips to my friends and would certainly use you again should I need to arrange anything similar in the future.

Thank you for organising such an excellent weekend especially as it was such short notice. The hotel was fabulous and the spa treatments a real treat. All the girls had a great time and we will be using you again.

by S Allen

The hotel was really nice with a great health club and the pubs and clubs were fab...the club VIP Pass was a brilliant idea...we didn't have to queue at all and jumped ahead of about 50 people.
