My wife and I visited the cow Museum after seeing it on here, it is my 30th and we decided to look for the more interesting and unusual places to visit and it was fantastic! So much character and intrigue in a wonderful little shop. The owner, Sam, is a lovely man who is very passionate about his collection. We ended up spending a great amount time discussing all the different unusual peices in his collection. If you are looking for something different to do, I would recommend checking out the Cow Museum and talking to Sam about the collection. We ended purchasing a pair of lovely cows of our own!
