Ireland
When to Go
If you go to Ireland in July or August, you can expect reasonably warm weather, longer days and a lively menu of festivals. However, this is peak season, which
presents some challenges if you're wanting a bit of solitude.
Spring and autumn can also be delightful seasons, with smaller crowds of tourists. Winter weather can be downright inhospitable, but Ireland (the
west coast in particular) does look beautiful in the rain, and there's
nearly always a pub nearby to duck into. However, in many Irish towns
restaurants and B&Bs close down around October and don't reopen until
Easter. With a few advance phone calls you can avoid getting stranded
somewhere with no place to sleep or eat.
