Best 'babymoon'/mum to be breaks in Ireland?

Hello,
I'd love recommendations for hotels in Irelans that do mum-to-be or 'babymoon' packages? My brother and his girlfriend are expecting a baby and we wanted to treat them for their Christmas present.

Ideally not too far from Dublin as she'll be fairly pregnant by then and they probably won't want to travel long distances.

Thanks very much!

And that's Ireland obviously!

Carton House in Mqynooth is absolutely beautiful . Perfect for a babymoon I’d say.

Is it a parents-to-be holiday or a babymoon - they're quite different things (the presence of the baby being the main change, though I always thing that babymooning other than by cocooning in your own home is a little ambitious). Or perhaps they've not decided?

I thought a babymoon was pre baby 😂. Sorry , Carton House better for parents to be then !

Thanks for the ideas. I definitely mean pre-baby (that's the only meaning of babymoon I'd ever heard and agree that a holiday with a newborn might not be the most relaxing thing ever).

Do keep them coming.

Has anyone been to the Ritz Carlton in Powerscourt? They love that part of the world

Carton House is nice as PP mentioned.

If they might be willing to travel a bit further, Monart is amazing (if £££ so would be an extremely generous gift!), although it's very much based around the thermal spa and she might not be able to fully indulge in saunas etc.

Seafield near Gorey is also lovely, and right on the beach if they got lucky with the weather for a walk.

Watching with interest as looking for something similar for ourselves before our first arrives next April.
