Mother’s Day Parties Near Longford: Celebrate in Style at Oakwood Hotel

Not every family wants a quiet, formal Mother’s Day lunch — plenty prefer something livelier, with drinks flowing, good music, and a proper party atmosphere to mark the occasion. Just a short distance from Longford, Oakwood Hotel offers a genuinely festive setting for a Mother’s Day party, giving groups the chance to celebrate the day their own way.

A Party Atmosphere for Mother’s Day

Oakwood Hotel is based on Tewkesbury Rd in Twigworth, within easy reach of Longford, and our Mother’s Day party leans into a more social, celebratory atmosphere than a standard sit-down lunch. The Pub provides a relaxed, sociable setting well suited to a livelier Mother’s Day gathering, with enough space for larger groups to settle in properly and enjoy the day together.

Whether you’re bringing together a group of mums celebrating together, a big extended family looking for something more festive than a formal lunch, or simply a group of friends marking the occasion in their own way, the atmosphere at Oakwood adapts to suit a proper party feel.

Food and Drink Built for Celebrating

A Mother’s Day party at Oakwood still puts food front and centre, drawing on the same quality Gloucestershire produce found across our dining spaces. Rather than a formal set menu, party bookings can be arranged around a more flexible format — a relaxed buffet, sharing platters, or a mix of dishes suited to a group that wants to mingle and celebrate rather than sit through a lengthy formal meal.

Our drinks selection plays a big part too, with a full bar available covering wine, cocktails, and our dedicated mocktail menu for guests who’d prefer something alcohol-free but still worth celebrating with.

Private Space for Bigger Celebrations

For larger Mother’s Day parties, or groups wanting a dedicated space away from other diners, our function room can be booked privately through our occasions and events team. This works particularly well for bigger families or friend groups who want the freedom to properly celebrate without worrying about disturbing other guests, with the flexibility to arrange seating, music, and catering to suit a livelier occasion.

Our events team can help tailor the format of the party to your group, whether that’s a themed celebration, a specific drinks package, or additional touches to make the day feel extra special for the mums being celebrated.

A Convenient Choice for Local Families

For families based in or around Longford, holding a Mother’s Day party at Oakwood means avoiding the added stress of navigating busier venues and heavier traffic closer to Gloucester or Cheltenham town centres on one of the year’s busiest dates. Being genuinely local makes it easier to organise a celebration everyone can get to without a long journey.

Booking Early Is Essential

Mother’s Day is one of the busiest dates in our calendar, and demand for party-style bookings is particularly high. We’d strongly recommend getting in touch as early as possible, especially for larger groups or private function room bookings, to make sure you secure the date and format you’re after.

Extend the Celebration Overnight

For groups who want to turn the day into something bigger, Oakwood also offers comfortable rooms, allowing a Mother’s Day party to continue into an overnight stay rather than ending when the celebrations wind down.
