Set on the lands of Fadden Castle, this beautifully crafted model village depicts Ireland from the early 1900's up to the 1950. It incorporates 12 thatched cottages, a pub and 60 figurines inclusive of people and animals. Scenes include the eviction of a family from their cottage, a windmill and a landlord's house.
Each model cottage is roofed with authentic thatch and finished to intriguing detail. Step inside the life-size cottage and sit by the open fire. It is a rare insight into Ireland's past.
