Top Self Catering Breaks with Swimming Pool

top self catering

So we have this amazing island to explore full of history and culture and if we get the weather, there really is no better place to be then right here in Ireland! The only problem we always seem to encounter is finding somewhere to stay, that’s reasonably priced, when you’re like us and have families with three or four children! For our families we are on the go so much that it’s easier to have the flexibility of kitchen facilities rather then inter-connecting rooms if we’re away for longer than a night or two. Usually the only thing on the kids wish list is a swimming pool which can come in very handy in Ireland for those rainy days! Again though, this can be quite difficult to find so we went on a search and these are our top picks…

  • Self Catering House ?
  • Hotel Facilities ie. swimming pool, kids club etc ?
  • Reasonably priced ?
