Ireland has a rich history of artisan craftsmanship, and the west of Ireland in particular has drawn these craftspeople as a place of inspiration and work. These experiences will take you into the workshops and homes of these artists and craftspeople. Get an understanding of the amazing skills involved in the use of their hand-tools and try them out for yourself. We have curated a choice of two itineraries. Each day will include three experiences with our craft artisans, privately hosted by Ashford Castle’s Experience Ambassador.
Please note that this is a full day off property immersive experience, where you will visit all three artisan producers either from Fire & Wood: Itinerary 1 or Clay & Cloth: Itinerary 2.
Discover our entire range of Meet The Maker experiences and let us inspire your with the craftsmanship of the West of Ireland.
