This little museum was absolutely lovely! The owner knows SO MUCH and was a delight to talk to! I wouldn't have even known about this place as I only found out about it when I got to Cashel to see the Rock. If you've got some extra time, it's a must see! I loved how there were a lot of different artifacts, all relating to Irish history and culture. Really cool.

An Bothan Scoir

Reviewed By Yorkiemom19 - Manassas, United States

Wonderful example of a thatched roof and what the working class lived in over 300 years ago. This is a restored house made with stone and of course, the tremendous roof. Just as cool across the road you can see the Ducking Pond or Gout's Pool, depending on who you talk to. This is where one could be punished by dunking into water. Among the dunkees were women accused of being witches or those with inappropriate social behaviors.
