There doesn't appear to be an equivalent. Googling "admirer of england" for example turns up links to definitions of "anglophile" and that sort of thing, but not so for "admirer of [the others]".
The Oxford English Dictionary lists Scotophobe, Scotophobia and Hibernophobe, but no corresponding words for lovers of those nations (unless they’ve crept into the later editions).It also gives Cambro- as a “combining form” for “pertaining to Cambria, Welsh.”
Analogy with these forms would give Scotophile, Hibernophile and Cambrophile. However, Scoto- might cause confusion with scoto- (which has to do with darkness), so maybe (as gmackematix suggests) a form based on Caledon- would be better.
