Make Mothering Sunday a truly magical experience
by visiting one of the Treasure Houses of England. Hosting a selection of
celebrations, the magnificent houses, castles and palaces all provide a
beautiful backdrop to ensure Mothers feel like Royalty during a memorable day

Blenheim Palace |
Blenheim Palace offers an extraordinary
array of spectacular sights, from their Capability Brown landscaped gardens to

budding spring blooms in supreme style. Wander round the gorgeous
grounds before enjoying a special three-course Mother’s Day carvery for just

their mum in the Chatsworth garden during Mother’s Day Weekend (17-18

mothers indulge in some premier pampering at their Nail Bar, and children can
craft their very own Mother’s Day cards in the Oak Barn
Harewood House |
The captivating Courtyard café at Harewood
House will host families for a spectacular lunch courtesy of their
exclusive Mother’s Day menu. Mothers can toast the day with a complimentary
glass of Buck’s Fizz or Prosecco while listening to the talented sounds of
acoustic performer, Charlie Barnes. Meanwhile, creative types can partake
in a pottery class or floristry workshop for an inspired shared experience
between mother and child or friends.

Edge’ delivers a programme of songs by Britten, Purcell, Tchaikovsky, de Falla
and Sondheim that looks set to be a spellbinding show.
