This Mother’s Day on the Sunday 11 March, treat your mum to a special and memorable day out at one of our special places in Northern Ireland.
Whatever your mum’s personal passions may be, whether it’s gardening or wildlife, conservation or afternoon tea, our magical houses, gardens and outdoor spaces are the perfect place to spend quality time together.

Enjoy a good old gossip as you stroll around the gardens at Rowallane, Mount Stewart or Castle Ward. Go back to your childhood and spend an invigorating afternoon collecting shells on the beach at Portstewart Strand, Murlough Nature Reserve or White Park Bay.
