Cead Mile Failte means “100,000 welcomes” in Irish. Look for the Irish flag along with the American one at the Irish Inn in Southern Illinois. Photo provided by the Irish Inn. As they say in Ireland, “there are as many ways to relax as there are shades of green”. With St. Patrick’s Day approaching, we wanted to share a few inns with a special connection to Ireland. From Illinois to Virginia, innkeepers will transport you to the Emerald Isle with everything from complimentary Irish beer to a wee taste of rare Irish tea.
Read more on the BedandBreakfast.com blog and see photos of inns where fine Irish hospitality is served up throughout the year, especially on St. Patricks Day.
