5 Ways to Spoil Mum this Mother’s Day 

Mother’s Day will be here in the blink of an eye, and if you’re still coming out of a chocolate coma from Easter, you’d be forgiven for feeling a little behind on planning something special for her.

It can be hard to truly repay our mums for everything they do and all that unconditional love they shower us with. If you want to treat her to something with a little more thought than a back-up box of chocolates or cheesy ‘Best Mum Ever’ mug, we recommend you treat her to a day out at The Grounds. While she’ll love your company more than anything, here’s a little go-to guide for the top 5 ways you can spoil her while you’re here!

1. SWEET TREATS FROM THE PATISSERIE

As mum would always say, “There’s always room for dessert!” and we’ve got plenty of mouth-watering cakes and pastries baked fresh daily to go around. Whether it be a classic strawberry tart, good ol’ chocolate brownie or irresistible red velvet cake, whatever her taste, there’s plenty of treats to send mum’s way! If you’re hosting something special for her at home, take a look at our made to order cakes available here.

2. FRESH FLORALS FROM SILVA

With the winter months beginning to settle in, The Grounds Florals by Silva is overflowing with beautiful fresh florals. Whether she’s got a bit of a green thumb and currently mastering her own succulent garden, or just loves the smell (and sight!) of a big colourful bunch, swing by and customise something for her from the amazing display.

3. D&Ms WITH KEVIN BACON

Have you been feeling a little busier than usual lately? Maybe you haven’t been returning mums calls as quickly as you’d like to? Not to worry – Kevin Bacon is on hand and at the ready for a D&M with mum if she’s in need of a good heart-to-heart. He’s more of a listener than anything, and with his nose so close to the ground, we hear he’s a very good secret keeper too!

4. A COSY EVENING IN THE POTTING SHED

Steal mum away for a little one-on-one time to make up for the lack of recent phone calls and treat her to an amazing dinner surrounded by sprawling greenery and fairy lights. Enjoy a few tasty dishes from our new menu and snuggle up with a blanket for the cosiest night out.

5. PLENTY OF INSTAGRAM WORTHY MOMENTS

We love creating beautiful spaces full of abundant greenery and lush florals, and with these spectacularly sunny cooler days, it’s the perfect backdrop for your #coolmum on the rise to Insta fame. She’ll be the talk of her friends with the most insta-worthy snaps; so put down your latte and indulge her with a few family photos through The Grounds, then sit back, relax and watch her Insta feed light up. Better yet, frame one for her to put pride of place on the mantle – she’ll treasure it more than you could know.

With so many other exciting activities happening around The Grounds this weekend, including a book ahead Mother’s Day Lunch, free workshops for the kids, markets with last minute gift ideas and more, we can’t wait to celebrate another special Mother’s Day with you.
