A Real Gem

“We visited this museum recently and had a wonderful experience. It provides a real education in what life was like for most rural Irish families up to the 1960s/70s. The museum is a personal collection put together by the Finneran family and its done with real care, love and imagination. We were lucky in that both Bridie and Charley were there and showed us around. They are so interested and proud of every item. We had four children with us and they weren’t bored for a second. It is ideal for families and there is a garden and seating area ideal for a picnic. We highly recommend this museum. There is lovely pub, Hamrocks, in the nearby village of Brideswell which is handy for refreshments.”
