In addition to a delicious three-course lunch, mum’s can enjoy a free peaceful guided boat tour watching wildlife, spotting dragonflies, listening for warblers and admiring the wild flowers. Entry to Martin Mere is also free of charge for mums who have booked and paid for the three-course lunch.

Whether it’s a surprise or a planned day out, your mum will enjoy a mouth watering meal that includes slow braised featherblade steak with homemade gravy, courgette-potato & cheddar soup and chocolate mousse served with homemade ginger shortbread biscuits. Our childs menu includes red tractor sausage, goat cheese tarts and scampi.

The lunch is £19.99 per person (£6.50 for a child’s main meal) and additional boat trip places can be booked at £3 each, providing fun for all the family.
