Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Booked as part of a hen do activity, Ann was absolutely fabulous in our 2 hour workshop, incredibly knowledgable and helpful as well as lovely! We had a great time making plaques, mugs & a lovely touch for Ann to help us make a keepsake too. Would highly recommend if you’re in Kinsale.

    One of the many places to walk into downtown Kinsale. Super street stores and the Gallery has many eye catching pieces for you to enjoy.

    A treasure trove. There's even a treasure trail to follow around Kinsale. Complete with the map (art in it's self) and prizes of art on successful completion of trail. The perfect start to exploreing Kinsale. From the frivolous Tayto art, to the darker side of the artists mind. Lots of history & heritage pertaining to Kinsale. As well as a delicious Bretton style carmel tasting tour. Something for everyone. Not to be missed!

    Kinsale is a lovely little town and is lucky enough to have its own family-owned hand-cut crystal shop. The glass is hand blown in another Irish town but the cutting is done in Kinsale. The quality is excellent and the prices are very affordable. The staff is _very_ friendly and definitely not overly pushy about buying something. I think they're just happy to chat.

    We bought a 'Harmony Collection' decanter and had it shipped back to the United States-- shipping was reasonable. We asked that they not ship for 10 days as we didn't want it to arrive while we were still in Ireland, and they were happy to oblige.

    An hour later we were down the street a bit at a woolens shop and my wife liked a small light wool blanket. Not wanting to carry it with us and not wanting to pay another shipping fee, we walked back across the street to Kinsale Crystal and asked if they would ship it with the decanter. They of course agreed and, so, we got the wool blanket.

    The decanter, in bubble wrap and then wrapped in the wool blanket, arrived undamaged a week after we got home.

    I expect to buy myself a couple Harmony whiskey tumblers for Christmas.

    Love this little shop. Have bar chocolate as well as truffles - I am typically not a fan of chocolates with filling but these are lovely and beautifully created. The book box is a gift in itself and the surprising flavors are fun to share. Don’t forget to get a chocolate shot to go.

    It was my lucky day when my friends and I wandered into this hidden gem of a shop after the colorful leather bags in the window caught my eye. Danny and his wife greeted us as if we were old friends and helped us find the perfect bags for our needs. When I found a bag, but needed it in a different color, Danny said he would custom make one to be ready the following day!! And it’s GORGEOUS. He then proceeded to help us get a reservation at a nearby restaurant that was also incredible. If you’re looking for a beautifully made leather bag of superior quality and craftsmanship, with attentive customer service that goes above and beyond, look no further - THIS is the PLACE!

    This was my favorite find on our four-day visit to Kinsale. The jewelry is beautiful, unique and not too expensive. It's fun to see them working on it in the shop (they will size rings for you) and also to know the family ownership story. Worth a visit -- for yourself or for gifts.
