A perfect day out at Harewood and a chance to make a beautiful gift. Places can be booked online.

Harrogate International Sunday Series

Why not celebrate Mother’s day and treat your Mum to a morning in the company of one of the brightest international talents on the classical music scene. Clarinettist Julian Bliss, an alumni of the Festivals’ Young Musicians Series, will be next to grace the Old Swan’s stage on Sunday 18 March, with a vibrant performance that will not fail to impress. Plus, follow that with a traditional Sunday lunch in the beautiful restaurant at the Old Swan Hotel. Tickets for Julian Bliss can be purchased by calling 01423 562303.

Afternoon Tea at Bettys

As a special treat, reserve a table in the elegant surroundings of the Imperial Room at Bettys Harrogate for Afternoon Tea, served to the accompaniment of our café pianist. Between 1pm and 5pm.

Enjoy the Great Outdoors!

With three National Parks, three Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the Pennines and a stunning coastline, Yorkshire is the place to be this Spring. So why not treat your Mum to a day out in the great outdoors in the Harrogate Dsitrict. Visit Yorkshire’s first World Heritage Site Fountains Abbey and see the first signs of Spring as the snowdrops appear, enjoy the magnificent views over Nidderdale from Brimham rocks, or take a walk around Harrgate’s Stray – a carpet of colour as the crocuses bloom.

Day at the Races

Enjoy a lunch at York Racecourse – a great carvery luncheon for all the family by award-winning chefs using fresh locally sourced produce.  Every Mum will receive a treat on the day and free entry to the Grandstand & Paddock for one adult on Press Family Raceday ~ Sunday 9th September 2012.
