Food has always been synonymous with Mother’s Day. From the tradition of children baking a simnel cake as a gift to the more modern traditions of breakfast in bed for mum or her favourite roast dinner being lovingly prepared. But after the previous two years of at home celebrations where you may not have been able to get together why not treat your food loving mum to one of The Montagu Arms’ foodie favourite gifts …
Grab your walking boots and enjoy the beautiful walk to Bucker’s Hard. This route is suitable for the whole family (including little ones in their pushchairs) and an ideal opportunity to spot wildlife and take in the beautiful scenery of Beaulieu. This peaceful walk is around four and a half miles long and perfect for working up an appetite! On your return treat mum to a delicious three course lunch at Monty’s Inn. Our relaxed and comfortable pub serves the best of homemade heritage cooking. Everyone is welcome at Monty’s Inn including your four-legged friend with dog’s welcome in the bar!
With more people leaning towards gifting an experience why not book something to look forward to with our ‘Paddle to the Pub’ break. Take in the beauty of the Beaulieu River, one of the few privately owned rivers in the world and home to 200 species of birdlife, with a two-hour kayak hike. Unwind back at The Montagu Arms and enjoy dinner at Monty’s Inn followed by overnight accommodation for two with a full New Forest Breakfast the following morning. Leave with shared memories to last a lifetime.
Enjoy a relaxing afternoon in the surrounds of our beautiful lounge and celebrate your mum with an Afternoon Tea at The Montagu Arms Hotel. Indulge on delicate cakes and sweet treats as well as warm scones smothered in thick clotted cream and strawberry preserve accompanied with loose leaf teas – just as was intended by the Duchess of Bedford. Why not make it extra special and add a glass of chilled Champagne?
Whisk mum away for the night and enjoy a foodie break to remember with our dinner, bed and breakfast package for two. Venture out into the beautiful Beaulieu village for a wander up the cobbled street or pop to our sister hotel Careys Manor for a relaxing spa treatment at SenSpa before heading back to the Montagu Arms. At dinner enjoy the exciting range of flavours and textures from the Terrace Restaurant before retiring to your individually designed bedroom, finishing your stay with a leisurely Continental breakfast.
Bring the family together and enjoy a traditional Mothering Sunday celebration with Sunday Lunch in one of our private dining rooms. Having an exclusive dining room gives your group privacy and space whilst providing the opportunity to tailor your gathering whether that be with decoration, menu choice or entertainment. There are two private dining rooms at The Montagu Arms, The Oakwood Room accommodating up to 32 guests and the smaller Paris Room accommodating up to 10, so whatever your family size, come and gather at ours.
