Really a great gallery in a small town on our way to southern Ireland. The gentleman that seemed to own the shop was very nice, and so nice to talk to. We really had fun chatting and learning about the town and surrounding areas. He gave us a few great ideas for lunch and he was spot on! The shop had a lot of really nice art pieces, as well as other local items for sale. We ended up buying multiple things as it was such a nice environment to shop in. Lastly, the shop owner really hooked us up and taught us all about the sales tax exemption for non EU citizens – THANK YOU SIR! We will hunt this shop out on our next trip to Ireland.

Adare Heritage Centre

Snuggled in a wooded setting among the rich quiet farmlands of the Golden Vale by the River Maigue, Adare is a model village dating from the time of the Norman conquest. It has been home to the Earls of Dunraven (Quin Family) for over three centuries and is located on the Limerick to Tralee road, the N21, a great pit stop for those on the way to the Ring of Kerry. The Adare Heritage Centre, located in the middle of this charming town with its many thatched houses, allows you to step back in time through an informative historical exhibition, also incorporating a tourist office, gift, craft and heraldry outlets, and a restaurant. During Summer months - June-September - The Desmond Castle tour exclusively runs from the Heritage Centre 7 days a week, with a new tour every hour.

Stop here as a first call, and for your ‚urgent‘ call, and more! The toilets were even open during most of 2020, what a relief, and so was the café with outdoors seating. In more normal days, this welcome centre also spots a tourist information, an interesting local Norman History exhibition and a couple of shops, ice cream, and seating facilities. A friend of mine once lost her handbag here in the height of the tourist season (yes, it does get very busy during the season) and we could not believe that Adare Heritage had it looked after and returned to her hours later. Now, that wouldn’t happen in many touristy places... Many folks warn you of Adare because of the many tourists, however, there is still a lot of heart and where would you find this infrastructure so well looked after. Travel to a big Irish town and you would hardly find a welcome and facilities like here in Adare!
