Mother's Day in Cornwall presents the perfect opportunity to treat the special women in our lives; whether they are mothers, mother figures, mums-to-be, or just someone who deserves a treat, we all know of someone worthy of being pampered on this significant day. At Camelot Castle, family is at the heart of what we do and creating memorable and enchanting experiences, especially with the ones you love, is what we specialise in. If you’re seeking inspiration, why not gather some ideas from the myriad of exciting ways to spend Mother’s Day at our historical cliffside castle?
A treat for all mothers, this promises to go down well with both younger ones and those who are being treated by their adult children. In our sublime coastal setting, we honour the beloved British tradition of a cup of tea with an abundance of freshly baked patisserie, infusing every bite with a little bit of Cornish magic. Our chefs take great pride in making your afternoon tea one to remember; sample dainty finger sandwiches filled with smoked salmon before taking your pick of desserts from Russian honey cakes and rich chocolate brownies to chewy macaroons and delectable cupcakes. Finish this off with an indulgent cream tea, topping Cornish plain scones with deliciously sweet Boddington strawberry preserve and dollops of irresistibly smooth clotted cream, paired with your choice of tea or coffee.
Alternatively, upgrade from the Camelot Afternoon Tea to the Prosecco Afternoon Tea and enjoy a glass of pink prosecco alongside your feast. For an added touch of luxury and elegance on Mother’s Day, opt for the Royal Afternoon Tea which sees the addition of salmon caviar and a glass of pink Champagne from Dom Perignon grapes. With views over the Atlantic Ocean, we can’t think of anywhere better to enjoy this luxurious culinary delight than by the fire with a tipple in hand, nestled in one of the most beautiful locations in the world.
Irina’s Restaurant is the perfect spot for celebrations. Join us for a dining experience that combines culinary artistry with the splendour of Cornwall’s breathtaking landscape. Enjoy superb freshly cooked food made using local produce whilst also taking in the equally superb panorama of the iconic Tintagel Castle and the bridge. Weather permitting, you can also eat and drink al fresco on the Camelot Castle Hotel Terrace for a spectacular spot on Cornwall’s precipice. Our extensive yet carefully curated menu includes starters like smoked salmon rosette and a classic prawn cocktail to set up your tastebuds for the mouth-watering main event.
Choose local venison steak with portobello mushroom, roasted new potatoes, red wine sauce and green peas puree, or opt for pan-seared hake fillet with a creamy lemon dill sauce. Of course, honey and thyme baked camembert may be more to your liking, a delicious option for vegetarians. If you have room for dessert, then we have a dish for every diet, from gluten free vanilla crème brulee and vegan chocolate brownie to a delicious selection of sorbets and our tasty Cornish cheese platter.
Afterwards, make your way to the Golden Age Bar. Whether you’re looking for a signature cocktail, a fine wine, or a perfectly poured beer, our beautifully decorated bar offers a selection that caters to every palate and our friendly team is happy to create the perfect aperitif or digestif to make your time with us last.
For the ultimate Mother’s Day treat, why not extend your time with us and fully immerse yourself in the warm embrace and grandeur of Camelot Castle? Book a room to spend the night and simply wander back to your slice of heaven overlooking the rugged Cornish cliffs instead of heading home right away. Our classic family room with a sea view is perfect for those visiting with younger ones, with space for four. This particular room combines a traditional comfortable aesthetic with a classical Victorian style and is complete with en-suite shower facilities; think beautiful bay windows, a cosy fireplace and a dressing table with prime views over the coast for you to take in while you get ready for a delicious dinner in Irina’s Restaurant.
If just the two of you are coming, book into our classic twin room with everything you need to make your stay as enjoyable as possible from a flat screen TV and tea and coffee-making set to free internet access. Alternatively, our selection of suites offers guests a beautiful four-poster bed, original Cornish stonework, a walk-in wardrobe and free-standing bath to sink into after a day exploring the Cornish coast. Another option for families or groups coming to visit on Mother’s Day is our luxury selection of self-catering apartments, the largest of which has room for six people and is complete with a kitchenette, three bedrooms, a leisure section and access to our facilities, from the Explorer’s Tea Room to the Golden Age Bar.
Make Mother’s Day one to remember this year and settle into the warmth and splendour of our castle by the coast; we can’t wait to welcome you and your loved ones.
