Drumsna is located only three miles from the bustling county town of Carrick
on Shannon, and is one and half hours drive from Dublin.
Drumsna also has many historical associations. In a small cemetery close
by our self-catering cottage is the burial place of surgeon Thomas Hazel Parke, who
accompanied Henry Morton Stanley on his exploration expedition in the
African Congo.
Within strolling distance of the cottage stands the ivy covered ruins of the Lordly mansion of the Jones' landlord. This is where novelist Anthony Trollope wrote his first novel, "The McDermotts of Ballycloran". Drumsna is also the birthplace of Robert Strawbridge. He was a Methodist preacher in Ireland in the 1700's, who emigrated to Maryland and began preaching there, making him the pioneer of Methodism on the American continent.
