Hi 🙂
I suppose it depends on a number of things. We have decided with a sun holiday this year for a number of reasons. Firstly, we haven’t been to the sun for a couple of years, secondly, I need a bit of sun to get rejuvinated, thirdly, accommodation in Ireland is so expensive that it is cheaper to go away for a week.
What age are your children. What would suit them and you in regards to being entertained while away. Pool/beach versus whatever ireland has to offer. WHat about nightlife, family friendly sun holiday versus family friendly restaurants. Cost of eating out abroad versus costs here.
Personally, I would be more inclined towards a sun holiday in a family friendly hotel. That way you know the children will be well entertained while away. Saying that i’ve no real experience so maybe some others might have some good ideas.
