This was a wonderful experience! We loved hearing the history of the mill, seeing the process from start to finish, and even getting a weaving demonstration on the looms. It was also in a beautiful location in Ireland. Our tour guide Jeff was outstanding and very personable! This is a must do on an Ireland trip!

Our guide Alan was so friendly and knowledgeable and welcoming he told the story of the mill so well. I really enjoyed my visit due to a personal connection with some of the products that I got to see in the mill from hillsborough which Alan was happy to bring to life. Couldn't recommend this tour more and the lovely Alan. He answered any questions and told the story so passionately one of the best tours I have been on in a while. The lovely staff in the store were also so friendly and welcoming and chatty myself and my mum had the best visit many thanks
