Immerse yourself in farm life past and present with a visit to the museum where you can see everything from a pony and trap, Deutz and Ferguson Tractors to milk churns.

The hand-threshing mill on display is one of only 3 in Ireland and dates back to the mid 1800s. Robert offers guided tours for 8 people or more on request, giving guests real life stories of the items on display.
