Family holiday

Hi all. I am looking for a holiday for this summer that is suitable for young families. I have a 5 year old boy and 1 year old girl and there is myself and my husband. We haven't found anything we love the look of.
We would like somewhere that had everything on the site/resort, restaurants, activities, nature, with some nice places within walking distance. Preferably somewhere not too far of a flight from Ireland. Max 3 hours and all inclusive would be great. I have looked at eurocamps etc but the accomodstion just doesn't look great and we'd love something a little lux! Ikos and Sani are all slightly over budget for us but look beautiful. Any help appreciated!

How about Nature Village Paris? It's almost brand new, has everything children of those ages could want, plus a spa, and isn't far.

Where does it say that? She only says 'somewhere not too far of a flight from Ireland'

You couldn’t go to Nature Villages without a few day at Disney… it’s minutes away and I know at 5 my DC would have realised.

Whats your budget?

What about Martinhal? It can be pricey in the school holidays, but people who've been rave about it. www.martinhal.com/sagres/

Brittany coast. Has everything. We like the Carnac area. You are very late to be booking though.

We've booked Butlins for the first time this year. So can't give a personal recommendation as we haven't been yet, but from a gander at the website it seems to have s lot of entertainment available for all ages. Most of it included in the initial cost and you can add on food package if you choose. Like I said not been so but really a recommendation just a suggestion m they have shows for the children in the afternoons, things like Mr tumble. Or at least Justin Fletcher and Sam and Mark.

Bedruthen Steps hotel in Cornwall - really close to Newquay airport so easy to fly. Is really well set up for younger primary children with kids clubs/baby listening and babysitters on tap.

Time wise there really is not loads of time, have you tried booking an all-inclusive in July or August? We booked a resort on a Greek island back in February and it was our third choice as other two were already fully booked (we are based in Ireland too) but you could get lucky with a cancellation!

@Kmwa
Only if you are talking about 2023!

OP you really don't have loads of time, most of the decent resorts are full all summer. Anyway, Portugal would be perfect or the Balearics.
