Hope ye are all well. Myself my fiance and our 2 daughters went away for 2 nights during the week to wexford. I googled family hotels in Ireland and the hotel we booked was first on the list on Google and I can see why. It was amazing from the minute we stepped in the front door to the minute we left we had a great time the kids especially and that's what we wanted because we hadn't gone away with them since last year so we wanted them to enjoy it. Our daughters are 2 and 8 and the 8 year old had the best time the hotel provide a supervised kids club for 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the evening free of charge but for kids above 4 only so our 2 year old couldn't go. The 1st night was movie night the next morning was go carting and cake decorating and the 2nd night was bingo and a disco she really enjoyed it and knowing she was being well supervised was great. Our 2 year old was asking for her but there is a play area for the younger kids you just have to stay with them which is understandable. So between that and her watching Minnie mouse on YouTube she was entertained. On our 2nd day there my fiance took the girls swimming while I headed off to the spa and they had a great time swimming they said the facilities were great. The spa was AMAZING I went for a hot stone back message for 25 mins and then I went for a dry float treatment for 30 mins and I literally floated out of there (maybe not literally) but it was honestly amazing ruth my massage therapist was brilliant. We ate both nights in the hotel the food was fab and the staff were lovely the food was normally priced nothing over pricey or anything but omg l nearly dropped dead at the bar when I was charged €6.50 for a West coast cooler the most I have ever paid for 1 is €5 or €5.50 max but very rarely I normally pay €4.80 but it's a 4 * hotel and I guess they are 4* star prices this would be the hotels only down fall I honestly couldn't fault them in any other way the rooms were fab too really spacious and had everything in them. On the hotel grounds out the back there was go carting, crazy golf, a soccer pitch, a play ground, a fountain, seating areas, animals and a shop so again plenty for the kids to do without leaving the grounds and to top it off they have there own little train called the amber express that brings you down the very back of the hotel grounds to feed the ducks, goats, horses and a racoon. There were little huts down there 2 and at Christmas, Halloween and Easter they do them up and loads of people come to see it. It would be magical at Christmas and we are really considering going back the kids really enjoyed that and the man driving the train was so much fun and really interacted with the kids. It was the Amber Springs hotel in Gorey Co Wexford ill leave a link Here i would highly recommend it especially if you have kids but even if you don't it's fab. It's a long enough drive and that would probably be the only thing bad about the whole thing just trying to entertain the girls on the way up and down but they had portable dvd players and we stopped on the way up and the way down for food and stuff to break up the journey so it wasn't too bad but just a heads up for anyone travelling from Kerry.
That's all for now
Thanks for reading
All my love
