The curiosity shop

Reviewed By Lt_Shade - Athlone, Ireland

What can I say. A unique shop on the way to Malin head. It is the most northernly brick and mortar shop in Ireland. The member of staff who I assume is the owner is very friendly and has a great sense of humour. Unlike most antique stores everything was clearly labelled with the price. Huge selection of stuff ranging from glassware to Warhammer. Parking is on street and shop is cash only. Contactable through Facebook.

This was a brilliant experience. We went as a group of 7. Another family grouped in with us. All the children got to take an Alpaca by its lead and walk up through the beautiful Donegal hills. The views were amazing. We stopped at a few points so pictures could be taken. Really really recommend this to everyone. John was a real gentleman and his two boys, Aidan & Seán were just lovely. So friendly and helpful. Thanks so much for a lovely afternoon :) Bronach ☺️
