Bed & Breakfast Accommodation
  
By far the most popular type of accommodation for American tourists. B&B in an Irish home enables you to meet
and mingle with Irish people in their communities and offers an unparalleled opportunity to experience Irish life and create
happy memories which will last a lifetime. Our tour packages offer B&B accommodation in cooperation with four B&B
associations:
Over 1900 Town & Country Homes Association members where you stay in or near the towns and villages.
Over 530 Irish Farm Holiday Association members where you stay on working farms - great for families with children!
Over 130 Northern Ireland Farm & Country Association members where you can enjoy a relaxing farm holiday.
Over 185 Northern Ireland Country, Town & Seaside Holidays members where you stay in the towns and villages.
You have over 2,745 B&Bs from which to choose.
We use these B&Bs in our 'Go As You Please' itineraries under the 'B&B' accommodation option.
Guest Houses
 
These are similar to B&B homes but run more like a hotel. Most are 'purpose-built' as guest accommodation with larger bedrooms and extra amenities for the guest (TV and telephone in room). They are family run for the most part and appointed to a 4 star standard. Breakfast is the only meal served in Guesthouses. They are centrally located in the towns and villages within a few blocks of pubs and restaurants.
We use this type of accommodation in our 'customized' itineraries under the 'Guest Houses' accommodation option.
Irish Country Hotels
   
Irish Country Hotels are a collection of small, family hotels, located in some of Ireland's lovliest villages. Each of their
hotels have been carefully chosen to provide modern comforts and services, combined with traditional charm and hospitality.
Exceptional quality and incredible value, coupled with a feeling of relaxed informality will ensure your complete satisfaction.
The standard of food is very much part of the Village Inn experience, with emphasis on home cooking. A convivial
atmosphere, traditional music and relaxation are an essential part of this unique collection of small family hotels. For some,
the activities on offer such as golfing, fishing, cycling, horse-riding and walking are but a distraction from the more
pleasant experience of enjoying - "The Real Taste of Ireland."
Each Irish Country Hotel has been selected for its idyllic setting and beautiful views. The fine collection of family
run hotels provide a relaxed informal atmosphere where your comfort is of paramount importance to your hosts. As with
their sister hotel groups, the choice of activities is varied and interesting with special emphasis, due to their locations, on
deep-sea fishing, pony trekking, watersports, cycling, golfing and hillwalking. Their award winning restaurants will ensure
your vacation is complete. When you wind down after a hectic day, with a quiet drink in front of an open fire, the essence of
an Irish vacation, good conversation, in a warm friendly atmosphere - will emphasise their motto - "Your Natural Choice."
We include these hotels in our ''Go As You Please' package under the 'Irish Country Hotels' option.
Manor House Hotels
 
Distinctively Different! Twenty three charming Manor House Hotels where perfect peace strikes the key note sustained
in harmony with high levels of comfort and cuisine, together with unobtrusive personal service.. Even in the city, a
Manor House Hotel has much of the country calm of its cousins and in all twenty you'll find supremely elegant touches, often
in very beautiful sylvan, lakeside or sea-girth surroundings. Manor House Hotels are part of a group with a single aim:
to please and pamper their guests. The important attraction is that the act of setting group standards does not impose
a standardized uniformity. How could it - when individual owners and individual architecture create such a
distinctively different ambience, each one from the other? Manor House Hotels - as individual as you are.
We include these hotels in our ''Go As You Please' package under the 'Manor House Hotels' option.
We include Manor House Hotels in our 'customized' itineraries under the 'Country Houses and Hotels' accommodation option.
Country Houses
 
Country Houses offer a chance to sample Irish country life at its very best, in a way not usually experienced by the
average tourist. The country houses are not hotels, guesthouses, or B&Bs, but buildings of architectural merit and character,
with unusual and interesting owners, who enjoy sharing their homes and their way of life with appreciative visitors. Some
are great houses, the centers of large estates, were designed by famous architects and lived in and visited by famous people.
Others are smaller but no less beautiful and interesting. You'll enjoy the tranquil havens with splendid surroundings,
good food and an air of exclusivity, privacy and relaxation.
We include country houses in our 'customized' itineraries under the 'Country Houses and Hotels' accommodation option.

Ireland's Blue Book is a unique association comprising Ireland's most charming country manors and restaurants.
Each property will appeal to the discerning visitor who is searching for high standards of traditional hospitality,
accommodation and fine cuisine amidst beauty of rural Ireland. Each property is owner-managed, and many have achieved

requirements and assure you of personal attention, giving you the opportunity to enjoy a quality of life which is fast disappearing.
