Memorable Experiences for Mothers Day

Our mums are one of the most important figures in many of our lives, and once a year, we have a day dedicated solely to them. So let’s celebrate our mama’s and treat them to something super special on Mother’s Day!

With lockdown (almost) a thing of the past, we’re able to spoil our mamas with an endless list of possibilities, but what better than the gift of experience!

Delve into Snowdonia 360 to help inspire you and explore ways you can celebrate your mum through unique days out, special trips and memorable experiences.

A simple day spent walking through our amazing region, exploring the rugged coastlines, the barren mountainous ranges or the lush woodlands. Pack a picnic, pick up mum, find your path and away you go…

Learn a new skill. Try your hand at surfing at Adventure Parc Snowdonia, or take to the seas and learn how to canoe at Plas Menai Outdoor centre.

For something a little more refined, why not spend a day, afternoon or weekend at stunning Portmeirion where you and your mum can while away your time at our very special and completely unique Italian Village.

North Wales is home to several fantastic steam railways boarding at Bala, Talyllyn, Llanberis, Snowdon and Ffestiniog. Choose your stop, hop on and unwind taking in some of the most amazing scenery our region has to offer from this ultra classic form of transport.

Many members are offering gift vouchers that can be used at any point during the year. Adventure Parc Snowdonia, Plas Menai, Snowdon Mountain Railway, RibRide, Gypsy Wood Family Park, Glasfryn Parc, Zip World, Bala Lake Railway and Greenwood Family Park are amongst those offering vouchers to suit any budget.

For animal lovers, both the Anglesey Sea Zoo and Welsh Mountain Zoo invite present givers to ‘Adopt an animal’. Almost every animal and seafaring creature are available for adoption with funds used to support their care and upkeep.

For something a little bit different, Talyllyn Railway is offering driver and footplate experiences, quarryman’s experiences and afternoon tea. At the National Slate Museum, an Introduction to Blacksmithing Course could be the perfect gift for an equestrian living mum! For those looking to improve or discover more about the Welsh language, Nant Gwrtheyrn offer courses for learners of all abilities with residential stays also available within this stunning and dramatic coastal setting.

Sian Pritchard of Snowdonia 360 commented: “Many of us are choosing the gift of experience to celebrate those we love on special days such as Mother’s Day. We hope we have helped inspire you to make a memorable gift for that very special woman in your life on this important day.”
