About Group/Hen Parties
Are you organising a hen party weekend, family group get together or corporate team building event? We can help! You can book out the site which can accommodate up to 24 people in our tents and Pods. Our site is ideal for groups with a communal kitchen, BBQ and campfire area.
Ideas for the alternative hen or group get together and available close to the site, include active pursuits like canoeing, forest camps or zip lining. For the foodie hen, we can organise chocolate making workshops, afternoon tea, wine tasting/cocktail making or a foodie tour of the area. For the crafty hen, Thomastown has a range of craftspeople who can provide jewellery making, pottery, still life drawing and making flower crowns. Yoga is also available for the chilled out Hen. There are also options nearby for a farm experience.

Butterfly Valley Glamping 5 Star Reviews
Comfortable and enjoyable
My family of 4 stayed in a pod and we loved it! It was so comfortable and we really enjoyed it!
A Very Satified Customer
Me and my Family recently stayed at the Butterfly Glamping, we stayed in the most comfortable, amazing Yurt. The weather was a bit windy and rainy, and we still had such an amazing time, we were very welcome and Mary the owner is very nice and easy to chat to and made us feel very welcome. recommended Places to eat, parks for walk and the river in thomastown for the waterbabies like ourselves. There is a lovely Spotless communal kitchen with everything you need, from microwave, oven, kitchen all equiped, even the campfire that logs and all are left out for use. Showers and toilets are very clean and easily accessed at all times. My mam, aunt and daughter stayed there for 2 nights in the Yurt last weekend, and middle of July we will be revisiting again and taken up residence in there beautiful pods. they is great perks to here, it is your perfect get away from your busy life to relaxation at your leisure. shopping kilkenny only 20min drive. Thomastown 1 minute drive, maybe walk, whichever suits each person. Great Views over the mountains too.
Peaceful and Enjoyable Glamping
I had a fabulous time at Butterfly Glamping. The facilities were very good and the scenery was amazing. Definitely going to stay there with the family again.
