Will I have to share a room? And… a bed??

If you’ve ever considered joining a women’s group tour as a solo traveller, chances are these questions have popped into your mind.

In this honest and friendly guide, we’re answering all those quiet concerns – from snoring to shared bathrooms – and showing what rooming on our tours really looks like. Spoiler: no one shares a bed (unless you ask to 😉).

👉 Curious? Here’s what to expect – and why so many women end up saying, “That wasn’t nearly as scary as I thought!”

Worried about sharing space? These two clearly aren’t. 😄

Resting under the trees after a great ride – no awkwardness, just comfort.

Room Talk: Where We Rest

Most women who join our tours come on their own. That’s part of what makes these journeys so meaningful – but also, understandably, part of what raises questions.

For many, one of the biggest ones is:

“What kind of room will I be in?”

Closely followed by:

“What if I snore? What if she snores?”

“Will I have any privacy?”

“What if I need the loo at night – three times?”

Let’s walk through what you can expect.

🥾 Hiking Tours: Shared Huts, Shared Stories

On our hiking tours, it’s completely normal to share huts with four to six women in one room. These spaces are simple – but they’re where conversations happen, laughter builds, and women connect over a warm cuppa and a shared love of walking.

(No sleeping bag? No problem – you can hire one from us.)

Some of our hiking accommodations also offer small rooms with just two or three beds – and occasionally, they’re even a little cosier and more comfortable. But whether it’s basic or a bit homely – the feeling of belonging is what makes it special.

🛖 One Yurt, Two Nights – A Tour Favourite

Only one of our hikes includes two nights in a shared Yurt – but it leaves a lasting impression! With wooden frames, colourful bedding, and a round roof, it’s a little nostalgic, a little quirky – and often a true highlight.

Think: a grown-up sleepover, without the curfew.

🚴‍♀️ Cycling Tours: Twin Rooms & Apartment Comfort

On our cycling tours, you’ll usually stay in twin-share or single rooms – often in two-bedroom apartments. Here’s how two-bedroom apartments works:

• One queen bedroom (used as a single)

• One twin room (two single beds)

• One shared bathroom for three women

• And importantly: a living room where you can chat, unwind, or share a glass of wine or cup of tea.

  
  

These shared spaces create comfort and connection – without giving up privacy.

And yes: sharing a bathroom makes single rooms much more affordable, which helps us keep the balance right.

🛏️ One Bed = One Woman

To clear up the biggest worry once and for all: You’ll never have to share a bed. Queen, king or single – each bed is for one person only.

(Unless you book with a close friend or partner and request to share – in which case, we assume you’ve talked about the duvet situation.)

🚪 What About Single Rooms?

We totally get it – sometimes, having your own room makes all the difference. We offer single rooms whenever we can.

But here’s the honest bit: we often stay in small, charming, character-filled places – not chain hotels.

That means: fewer single rooms available – but far more warmth, personality and local flavour.

So if a single room is important to you, please tell us early – and we’ll do our very best to make it happen.

🌙 Final Thought

Whether you’re a light sleeper, a midnight tea drinker, or a champion snorer – you’re definitely not the only one.

And in our experience?

A little understanding, a shared sense of humour, and a cosy space go a long. You don’t have to be best friends with your roommate – but many women are surprised by how relaxed and connected they feel after just a night or two.

Because real rest isn’t just about beds.

It’s about feeling at ease – and knowing you’re welcome just as you are.

Still got questions about rooming? We’ve heard them all – feel free to ask us the weird ones too. 😉
