    Hi,
    me and my family are visiting ireland next month and we were hoping to spend a few days in connemara spiddal. we have looked at some local b&bs and they seem to be quite reasonable. i just wanted to know if there were any shops around the spiddal area? as i have a lot of presents to get for family and friends back home with me. thanks

    You would have more choice if you went into Galway city.

    Spiddal have a craft village http://ceardlann.com/ and there is standuns about a mile before Spiddal http://www.standun.com/?___store=mobile. Never being into any of them except the cafe in the craft village which is nice. So you are pretty limited.

    We are definitely visiting the craft village as I have read a lot about it but I haven't heard about the standun shop that you mentioned . I looked at the website and they seem to have a lot of different things, has anybody been / shopped there ?

    Don't worry, we have conveniently placed tourist shops everywhere you plan on going. We're kind of good at that. :D

    Galway is only 15 minutes up the road, you should definitely spend a day there.
