Say thank you this Mother's Day by taking your mum on a relaxing weekend break in Northamptonshire.

Northamptonshire is an excellent place to go for a ‘get away from it all’ midweek or weekend break. Here are just a few of the cool things you can do. Anyone can enjoy them but they will give your Mum a Mother’s Day she’ll never forget.
