Try the Lough Erne resort just outside Enniskillen. I'm guessing your folks live in Donegal somewhere so it's not too far away.

Could also try the Slieve Russell.

Those may be pricey though.

One other option - the Hodson Bay just north of Athlone. It's a very nice spot. It is a sister hotel of the Galway Bay and they should have similar offers.

The Wyatt in Westport usually have good deals I got the parents a weekend deal there a few months back.
Would also recommend The Galway Bay deal used one before.

The Hudson Bay is a fine hotel but unless your parents want to play golf or do  boat trips there's nothing to do except stay in hotel bar and they will probably end up going into Athlone.The other hotels are at least beside other pubs/restaurants.

Going to Mount Wolseley Hotel Spa & Country Club for Easter.

Any one been?

When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.
