Superb collection of beautiful local crafts. The shop itself is gorgeous and the crafts are really extraordinary. I'm glad I stopped in. The handmade wooden pen I bought there is such a luxury and it's a great conversation piece. read more

The staff are very friendly and if I can't find something I'm looking for they are there to help. I love having a browse in the shop and even grabbing a coffee or an ice-cream from here. I highly recommend shopping in SuperValu
Very nice local supermarket in the beara peninsula. The employees were generally very friendly and…read morehelpful. With that said, the first time I stopped in and tried to use an American swipe credit card they did not take it. The cashier at the time was a very young woman so she may not have been aware of that. After that incident, they took my swipe card just fine. They don't take Amex :( Prices at the supermarket are very good. The selection also is very good. They even had vienetta ice cream. It would be nice if they had that in America still. The prices in some cases were better than Tesco in Cork.

I got there…read morejust before closing and the ladies there were very accommodating, even bringing me back into the mill for a tour (despite it being closed for the night). There was a huge selection of knit and woven goods, including some very soft blankets that were woven and felted on site. The sweater selection was less than some nearby outlets but quality was great. There was also a much more varied selection of yarn. The ladies were nice and chatty as we picked what we needed and checked out. When she learned that I wanted to attempt my first knit project with one of the hanks, she even found some needles to gift me! The store handled VAT and shipping, so it was very easy to buy things and send home without worrying about customs or duty free counters at the airport.

They had…read morea little sign up along the way informing us that they had placed second (I think) in the Irish Times "best shop in the country" category, so I thought I'd pull over and have a look in on my way back home after passing through the village of Leap. The shop itself is actually quite large inside, with three separate rooms. Each room is decorated and carefully curated to show their lovely, quality, eclectic stock. It's really a homewares store I suppose, with lots of lovely unique piece. The lady I spoke to (I'm guessing the owner) was extremely friendly and helpful and encouraged us to have a good browse. I literally wanted to buy everything in the shop! She informed us then that they also have a website which you can order from (YAY). 100% worth a look if you are in the area!

Seodoirí Na Riochta was the perfect solution! We had already stopped at several other jewelers and retailers, all of whom tried to sell us overpriced rings that weren't exactly what we said we were looking for. We came across this shop as we were about to turn around and head back to the car, and were pleasantly surprised! The proprietor (I didn't ask for his name, shame on me) was lovely and showed us many different and beautiful options, and we walked away after half an hour saying we had to think about it... only to return in fifteen minutes absolutely decided that we wanted them! The rings are fine and beautiful, the proprietor was wonderful, the shop was well stocked with gorgeous fine jewelry, and our rings were expertly fitted and resized within an hour and a half... amazing experience. Please make this a stop if you're in Killarney and looking for fine jewelry!
A Heartfelt Shoutout to Máura Burke!…read more I just had the most wonderful shopping experience thanks to Máura at the store! While browsing for an Aran Crafts sweater, I was greeted by her warm and friendly smile that instantly made me feel welcome. From the moment I walked in, Máura went above and beyond to understand what I was looking for. I shared my budget and preferences, and she listened attentively before offering me a couple of stunning options. I immediately fell in love with a beautiful side zip hoodie featuring a heart pull zipper--absolute perfection! What truly stood out was the genuine care Máura showed throughout the process. There was zero pressure to buy, just pure enthusiasm for helping me find something special. It's rare to encounter such phenomenal customer service that makes you feel appreciated as a customer! Thanks to Máura, I walked away with a sweater that I absolutely adore! Thank you for making my shopping experience so memorable.

Pottery in the traditional Mucros style with its distinct coloring and markings: platters, creamers, mugs, bowls, candlesticks. Also offered in the Craft Shop are coffee table books, jewelry, children's toys, traditional Irish fare, Irish music...you can find yourself a souvenir to treasure as well as gifts to bring home that are sure to be well-received by loved ones. Prices here are really reasonable, too, all things considered. Naturally, you can visit the Craft Shop without having to pay entry fees to the grounds!
