A trip to watch Ireland take on the auld enemy in the Six Nations is just one excuse to visit London and accommodation doesn’t have to cost a packet thanks to JOEbreaks.
As one of the world’s busiest, liveliest and most happening cities and with all sorts of attractions to suit any visitor, swinging London is worth a visit at any time of year.
Knowing that we and, of course, you, dear reader, live in the here now, you’ll be looking for an excuse to visit the English capital as soon as possible and what better way to time your trip than to coincide with Ireland’s clash with England in Twickenham on Saturday, February 22.
By that stage, Joe Schmidt’s men will have two games under their belt, both of which will be played at the Aviva Stadium, so here’s hoping that we’re still on course for both the Championship and the Grand Slam by the time we square up to the men in white.
They won’t say it publicly, but revenge will no doubt be on the minds of plenty of the Irish players who featured in successive Six Nations defeats to their neighbours across the pond, with England dishing out a bit of a hiding on Ireland’s last visit to Twickenham on Paddy’s Day two years ago and shading an ultimately disappointing encounter in the Aviva Stadium last year.
If you are making the trip, be sure to check out the discounted London deals available below, which are part of our new venture, JOEbreaks, a one stop online shop for booking hotel rooms all around the world.
While you’re at it, you’re as well to enter the competition we’re running to celebrate the launch of JOEbreaks, with a prize of a €200 hotel voucher to spend wherever the hell you like in Ireland. Don’t say we never do anything for you.
