I'm due to have a baby (no 4!) in mid-July and I want to plan a super easy holiday for mid/late august for 4 adults (bringing my parents for help!) and 3 other kids from 2-6years old. We're in Northern Ireland so it will need to be on the island of Ireland somewhere so we can drive there with baby.
I know baby will be tiny but I can't imagine the doctors letting me go any longer than end of July and so far births have been easy so I figure that the worst case scenario would be that if I had any problems I'd had to stay at home with baby (and helpful MIL nearby if that did happen!) and DH could go on the holiday with my parents (they'd all be fine with this - they get on sickningly really well).
The kids didn't get a holiday last year for various reasons so I'd love to give them one this year despite my not great baby timing!..... but I'm stuck what to book! I want something with some fun for the kids (would love a kids club).... I looked at cottages but they'd be just like being at home work wise for me and DH! Was hoping to find something like center parks but I can't find anything. So I guess a hotel.... most seem to be posh castle type places which would not be suitable with 4 kids!
Budget is reasonable - would like it not to be extortionate but would consider going for shorter time to somewhere more expensive. Would be for between 4 days and 1 week I'd say.
Any ideas?
