"The Kennedy Homestead birthplace of president John F Kennedys great grandfather Patrick Kennedy. Visitor Center based in New Ross Co Wexford, they have entry fees with free tour guide.chance to view Kennedys library collection from Boston."
"If you like a bit of history you will probably enjoy visiting this place. It has a good exibithion about the Kennedy's and the tour guide, a distant relative that still leaves in the place, was very good in telling the detais of JFK's visit. Jackie Kennedy also visited the place later with their children."
