Fear not, we've done the legwork for you and rounded up the crème de la crème of Mother's Day gift suggestions. 1. Leave the alarm clocks at home and enjoy the 'Bedtime Bliss' package at Dunboyne Castle Hotel & Spa A night of blissful sleep is the balm that soothes and restores us after a busy week.

We've got just the thing. The new heart of Irish culture in Dublin can be found nestled behind the blue door of Number Twenty Two, South Anne Street. If your mum is of a certain vintage she might remember the venue, which is located just off Grafton Street, as iconic music venue McGonagles. The magnificent theatre at Number Twenty Two now hosts eclectic performances and cultural events while offering guests the opportunity to feast and drink from a menu themed to the various shows on offer. The Library Bar serves yummy cocktails, drinks and bar bites all day. This Mother's Day, award-winning vocalist Luke Thomas and his band The Swing Cats will perform the music of Louis Armstrong, Fred Astaire, The Rat Pack, Michael Buble and more. With two number one iTunes albums under their belt and a string of headline shows all across Europe including Germany, Monaco, Luxembourg and the UK, this is sure to be a performance perfect for the day that's in it. In case you need any more persuading, mamas will also receive a complimentary glass of bubbly on arrival. Dinner is at five, with the show starting at six. The dining package is available for €65 and includes a three-course meal from the a la carte menu plus the show, or €20 for show only and €15 for standing tickets.
