Easter Breaks!

By Cathriona Murphy

When it comes to Easter our first thoughts turn to all that tempting chocolate!! But if you are a parent, your first thoughts are most likely going to be about having the kids at home for 2 whole weeks listening to the same sentences on repeat “I’m bored. There’s nothing to do. I’m bored”. . . . and so on! So why not take the time to relax and reconnect with each other, no housework, no cooking just pure and simple family time. I have looked around to handpick some of my personal favourites and trust me, as a mom to a teenager, the first thing I checked for was the complimentary WIFI!!

Kenmare Bay Hotel
From €289 per night on a Self-Catering Basis, this package comes with access to a leisure centre with children’s pool and a playground onsite. The restaurant has a dedicated kids area and if Mom and Dad want some alone time, there is and available Kids Club which please note charges do apply. The luxury self catering 4 star cottages are located in and around the grounds of the hotel in such a discreet way you will feel completely disconnected from the outside world whist having the chance to reconnect with each other!
