Pregnant and dreaming of some precious time just the two of you before baby arrives?

Well, then you might be interested to know that the stunning Lough Eske Castle Hotel in Donegal have just launched a very tempting “Babymoon Package” and guys – it sounds pretty much all sorts of amazing.

Here are some details from their website:

Unwind and relax for one night of pure bliss with a tailored Babymoon package for both mums and dads-to-be, to ensure ultimate pampering during this special time. Lough Eske Castle is the only five-star hotel in county Donegal and is situated in a very special part of the spectacular and stunning Wild Atlantic Way. This area trails along Ireland’s Northwest coast and will take you on a journey of sensory delight through stunning wilderness locations and golden sandy beaches, only a 15-minute drive from Lough Eske Castle hotel, making it the perfect escape to help you prepare for your bundle of joy arriving.

Well, that sounds so good, we can’t imagine any expectant couple who wouldn’t want to escape to Donegal for some rest and relaxation here.

Oh, and it wouldn’t be a true babymoon without some serious pampering too, and so Lough Eske Castle invites parents-to-be to experience the ‘ultimate journey to blissful relaxation’ at their Spa Solis, the hotel’s award-winning spa which recently collected two top awards for “Best Countryside Spa” and “Best Luxury Wellness Spa” at the World Luxury Spa and Restaurant Awards.

The Babymoon package includes a decadent and soothing foot soak treatment, followed by a full body pregnancy massage using hydrating products which prevent stretch marks. This luxurious spa treatment is followed by a Yon-Ka mini facial, which promises a rosy, refreshed complexion. Muscle aches will be eased away, excess fluid reduced, and skin revitalised from head to toe within a total time of 150 minutes, leaving mums to be feeling totally renewed, refreshed and invigorated in time for the arrival of a new baby.

And don’t go thinking dads-to-be are forgotten about. With one mini treatment which includes a choice between an express facial or shoulder and back massage, including some vital relaxation time in the surrounds of the hotel’s expansive thermal suite area, expectant dads will feel well looked after too.

And as for food, those cravings will be well met with a three-course Table d’hote evening meal in the hotel’s stunning Cedars Restaurant and indulge in a guilt-free full Irish breakfast the following morning.

Lough Eske Castle’s Babymoon Package is available all year round with prices starting from €399* per couple to include: overnight accommodation in a Courtyard or Deluxe Guestroom, a full Irish Breakfast in Cedar’s Restaurant, table d’Hote dinner in Cedar’s Restaurant, one “mum-to-be” 150-minute package in Spa Solís, one express treatment for dad-to-be in Spa Solís, we well as use of the thermal suite, leisure facilities and swimming pool.
