Enjoy an interactive museum experience in County Tipperary, examining the relationship between the people, the land and the horse with Fethard Folklore & Food by Horse Country.

Fethard is a town shaped by two traditions, horses and heritage. Encircled by medieval walls and steeped in equestrian excellence, it has long stood at the heart of Ireland’s thoroughbred story. The Fethard Folklore & Food by Horse Country experience provides a deeper connection to the town, blending history, horsemanship and local flavour.

Your journey begins at the Fethard Horse Country Experience, housed within the restored 17th century Tholsel building. Through interactive displays, rare artefacts and personal stories from breeders and jockeys, the town’s evolution from medieval settlement to a global centre of Thoroughbred excellence is brought to life. After a morning of discovery, enjoy a two course lunch at Sadler’s Restaurant, celebrating the best of County Tipperary produce.
