It's Mother's Day on 30th March and we're all about celebrating your mum and mother figures with extra special gifts and experiences that you can only find around Exeter.
From bottomless brunches, spa days and gin tasting tours to sweet treats and beautiful bouquets - we've got lots of wonderful ideas to share for Mother's Day.
Spa day
Everyone deserves a little pampering in their busy life and what better way to indulge than by treating your loved one to a spa day experience here in Exeter. What mum wouldn't enjoy the gift of escapism this Mother's Day, with a range of relaxing treatments to help restore their mind, body and soul. Whether it's soaking away the stresses in the Mercure Southgate Hotel's heated indoor pool, sauna and jacuzzi, indulging in a complete spa package at Hotel du Vin, or unwinding with a rooftop view from St. Sidwell's Point, you'll find somewhere special to relax and escape it all.
Mamma Mia Bottomless Brunch
Bring out the Dancing Queen in your mum and treat her to a Mamma Mia themed bottomless brunch at the Mercure Exeter Rougemont Hotel. A fun-filled day of delicious food, free-flowing drinks, and live music, indulge in a scrumptious brunch while enjoying the sounds of a talented singer performing your favorite ABBA hits. You'll definitely leave saying "Thank You For the Music", as well as the food and drink!
The Ivy Exeter
The Ivy Exeter is celebrating mums and mother-figures with the launch of a delectable two or three-course set menu, complete with a beautifully floral, Raspberry Bloom Parfait dessert created exclusively by The Ivy’s executive chefs for the occasion. Guests can also choose The Ivy’s iconic afternoon tea, which can be elevated with Champagne to make the day extra special. As a special added touch, guests who dine on the Mother’s Day set menu will also receive a bunch of tulips.

Cream tea aboard Stuart Line Cruises
Just sit back, relax and watch the world float by with a scenic Mother's Day cruise aboard Stuart Line Cruises.

Tours, tastings and gin making at Exeter Gin
If your loved one is a gin fan then Exeter Gin School is the place to visit. Learn about innovative distillation methods and sample some of the local specialities before chilling out in the bar or make it a truly memorable Mother's Day by joining the gin school in creating and making your very own gin. What combination would you create?
A mouthwatering Sunday lunch
Mother's Day falls on Sunday 30th March so why not treat her to an indulgent Sunday roast with all the trimmings? There's no need to slave away in the kitchen and certainly no washing up required when you book a table at one of our cosy Exeter restaurants. Take a look at our blog for inspitation!
Relax with a favourite read
Mum's deserve some quality 'me' time and what better way than curled up with a good read. Indie-favourite Bookbag can order any book for collection from their bookshop in McCoys Arcade, or for delivery. They also offer a subscription service and gift vouchers if you're not quite sure of mum's reading interests.
A selection of sweet treats from Chococo
Is your mum a chocoholic? Award-winning Chococo on Gandy Street has a mission to tantalise your taste buds with the most deliciously uplifting fine fresh chocolate experience in the UK. Who are we to argue and the only dilemma you'll face is choosing what to treat your mum to from their wide range of chocolate assortment boxes, lollies and figures.
Become a member of Exeter Northcott Theatre
If your mum enjoys a night out and is a fan of the theatre then how about treating her to a membership of Exeter Northcott Theatre. Not only does it mean they'll receive a discount on show tickets, food and drink, but there's also a great feeling knowing that the membership contributes in a small way towards the future of an amazing local theatre.
Leaf Street
Say it with flowers, but not just any bouquet as Leaf Street is home to the most beautiful in town. Choose from an array of colourful, fresh and dried flowers that will show you truly care this Mother's Day or pick something special from their display of unique locally sourced and handmade gifts available in the shop.

Enjoy a morning of fun, friendship, solidarity and celebrations as you join other mum's for a Bear Town takeover, including exclusive use of the vast role play centre and areas for younger cubs to play around and explore. Capture your precious moments in the photo booth and mum's will also be treated to a bath bomb by lush.
