Who wants to go on another spa weekend, really? Spa weekends can be great for the mind, body, and soul, but after a while they are going to get boring just like any other weekend away. If you want to keep a sense of novelty and adventure, then you need some new ideas for your next girl’s weekend away. You’ll find exactly that below!
Go to the theatre
How about taking a theatre trip to see a show that you’ve always wanted to see? You may need to compromise, but if you go to a professional theatre, any show you see should be enjoyable! Going to the theatre really is a great experience and something most people should do at least once.
Get crafty
Why not get crafty together? If you all like to make things and consider yourself creative, and even if you don’t, it could be fun to let loose and do a workshop or day course. For instance, you could make some special jewellery that you have designed and made all your own. You’ll get guidance from a workshop tutor but you’ll have mostly free reign and be able to take home your very own one of a kind design to treasure forever.
Go an a break with a twist
You might think that it’s insanity to book a mini break without knowing where you’re going, but there are many companies that will book you a mini break in a secret location so you don’t have to worry about a thing. You won’t know where you’re going until you get to the airport, but that’s all part of the fun. You give them your budget, along with anywhere you really don’t want to visit and they do the rest – they sort out your accommodation and other essentials, so there’s no need to worry about that. This is truly loads of fun, although you may feel apprehensive at first. All you and your friends need to do is pack and get ready to discover somewhere new!
Travel in luxury
Of course, just because you’re not going to a spa doesn’t mean you can’t travel in luxury. Take a look at some luxury apartments and see if you can live the high life for a few days while you explore a place completely new to you.
Go on a walking trip
If you and your friends like to stay active, you could go on a walking trip, or even a biking trip depending on your preference. There are so many beautiful places and routes you could walk, and everyday could be a new adventure. Getting out in nature and enjoying the fresh air should be a welcome break from modern life.
Try something brand new
See if you can try something brand new that you would never try normally, like paddleboarding. Do something totally out there to get you out of your comfort zone and living in the moment!
What will you do for your next girl’s weekend away? Let me know in the comments.

I love going to the theatre with friends! I do it way to little, but when I do it’s such a joy!
I love the theatre, I think when shows come back I definitely need to make more of an effort to see more shows!
Some great ideas! I love the ‘get crafty’ idea because I feel like that’s a good way to be productive, but still have opportunities for good conversations with friends.
Yes definitely!
I’m in serious need of a girls getaway after this pandemic haha! I love the idea of leaving it up to someone to plan, the element of surprise would make it so much more exciting:) x
It would wouldn’t it?!
I have never heard of booking a trip to a secret location before and now I am hooked on the idea. I definitely want to do this with some girlfriends some time. What an adventure that would be.
It’s such a great idea!
Some great suggestions, thank you for sharing!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Yes definitely! It’s a really nice way to catch up.
