    Galway's only 2 hours away from Dublin now and you'd be avoiding Race Week quite well...

    Do you want a hotel room which has you all in it or a room with a separate room for the kids? Do you want a pool or a kids club for the 4yr old? How far are you willing to travel?

    Hodson Bay hotel near Athlone. Motorway most of the way there. Family friendly hotel with kids running around and not unwelcome at all. Big pool for kids and adults, free for hotel guests. Lovely lake side location with nice scenery. We went last August Bank Holiday with a 4 month old baby and had a good time.

    The Skellig Hotel in Dingle is very family friendly. We went there in May with 2 year old and staff were very good with him. There is also a kiddies pool and adult pool. Dingle is a lovely town and lots to do there also. Beach nearby in Ventry. We ate in the Hotel all weekend, was easier than going out but there are also some nice restaurants in town.
