Mother's Day Treat? Beeston Castle March 10th

TREAT MUM THIS MOTHER'S DAY

With Mother's Day (Sunday, 10 March) just around the corner, English Heritage's Beeston Castle and Woodland Walk provides the perfect day out to treat mum. Spring has sprung in the spectacular Woodland walk and the newly opened food kiosk now offers wonderful light lunches and tasty treats.

A day to honour mothers, Mothering Sunday as it is known in the UK, originated in the Middle Ages when people came back home on the fourth Sunday of the Christian festival of Lent. Many children went away to work at a very early age, and this was an opportunity for families to get together after time apart.

Beeston Castle and Woodland Walk, Cheshire

Set above a rocky crag high above the Cheshire Plain and boasting spectacular views, Beeston is one of the most dramatically sited medieval castles in England. On a clear day, views are visible from the Pennines to the Welsh mountains. It has a 4,000-year history with a replica Bronze Age roundhouse, a 40-acre woodland park and a newly opened quirky food kiosk selling light bites and tasty treats.
