FOTA is a great complex made of 3 parts. The Resort, where an important Golf championship was held - the Irish Open, which we have already shown on this post. The Wildlife is an environmental preservation park with amazing animals, we have shown some of them here. And the third part is the FOTA House, Arboretum & Gardens which we will show on today's post.The house is open for visitation all summer. Tours are organized to visit the house internally. You will have access to several environments, since the living rooms up to servants quarters.

This was the living room. The funny thing is that the table on the back was also used as a stand for coffins when someone died.
