Ireland's Most Unusual Bed and Breakfast Accomodation...

The Irish Times called The Bridge House in Skibbereen, 'The Most Unusual B and B in Ireland'.
And my friend John Foster, a man not known for hyperbole says this once nondescript little rooming establishment is the most amazing in all of Europe!
Mona Best, mine hostess seems to have the mostess too, she's a character that matches the extraordinary place she'd created.
My room, really a museum piece, says John, has one mannequin standing guard at one door and another standing over the bath and I knew that under all the pillows and paraphernalia there was a beautiful comfortable bed to dream in.
Going down to a delicious breakfast was quite an experience too.
Every surface of the room, both vertical and horizontal is covered with collected treasures from the years.
If you ever go across the seas to Ireland...
