NATIONAL MUSEUM OF COUNTRY LIFE / CEIDE FIELDS
National Museum of Ireland - Country Life
Turlough Park House is set in spectacular surroundings, framed by magnificent gardens, reflected in the still waters of its own lake. This is the first branch of the National Museum to be located outside of Dublin, and complements its three sister venues in Dublin. The National Folklife Collection has been assembled by the Museum's professional staff here, in award-winning galleries, laid out in many ingenious and innovative ways, are the lives of the ordinary people of Ireland from the period 1850-1950. Located outside Castlebar approx 45 minutes from the hotel.
The Ceide Fields
Located in North Mayo this is certainly a unique experience. Over five and a half millennia old, this Neolithic landscape of world importance is well worth a visit.
Céide Fields overlooks the mighty Atlantic Ocean which gently laps or vigorously pounds (depending on the weather!) up against the cliffs below. The landscape itself has been forged from the dramatic upheaval and movement of the earths crust over millions of years.
The soil at Céide Fields has been constantly subjected to the conflicts of the weather. The warm Gulf Stream comes up past the American continent between Ireland and Iceland. In the opposite direction, cold deep waters flow south from the icey Arctic Ocean. The combination of all these factors have resulted in the wild beauty and uniqueness of this region in County Mayo.
