Why not try your hand at the wonderful art of basket weaving! Kathleen Mc Nea is a fourth generation basket weaver.

Through her technique and experience you will be shown how to make such items as baskets, pardogs, cliabhs and many more traditional baskets which are native to the west of Ireland.

We are a family run pottery located in the village of Pollagh on Achill Island, producing a range of handmade pottery for the home and special occasions. Established in 2005 by Laura McIntyre Mulligan, the key to what we do is based on our personal approach to our customers. Laura loves the challenge of one off commission pieces and approaches each with a passion for perfection.  

The Achill Pottery was established in 1960 by Joe and Mary Colohan and has produced and sold pottery on Achill Island for 53 years. The tradition is now continued by their son Fergil and his wife Geraldine.  Most of the workers have been secondary school children, and many people have worked here over the years.

Liam Kelly is a native of Achill Island on the west coast of Ireland. Generations of his family have used “Turf” from the Bogs of Achill as fuel and now Liam works on the “Bogwood” to create pieces of art. His Bogwood Sculptures are simple since they are openly crafted by hand. Each piece is unique, the beauty and shape has not been altered only enhanced by careful craftsmanship. Liam is a “Direct Carver” working from memory while observing the subject.
