Our Products
As the name suggests our core product is the Scratchable Map Ireland. You can get a neat poster hanger so that your map is looking it's best hanging on your living room wall. It's super easy to use. If you're looking to go the full hog, why not get a customised frame? The frame is the perfect measurement for your map and you can write a message of your choice. Something like "Our Irish Adventure 2021" sound good doesn't it?

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING
I would have to say this is definitely one of the best keepsake presents I've found. And I'd encourage anyone whose done a roadtrip in Ireland to scoop one up because it's top notch.

FANTASTIC AND BEAUTIFUL IDEA
It is even better than we both expected. Delivery was super quick and the map itself was very well protected with fab packaging. We can’t wait to start touring the country and scratching off places on the map. Thank you to Paul and all the team.

AMAZING
What a great idea. Stunningly beautifully drawn map. Presented in amazing packaging even with a coin to do the scratching. Great product. Well done.

A BRILLIANT IDEA!
Map came and couldn't be happier with it, can't wait to start scratching some of these places off it. It's a great idea and have already got my brother to buy one as well😁

5 STARS
Map is really high quality and looks really well framed on a wall. Every Irish home should have a map of Ireland. Would really strongly recommend the map as a gift or to buy yourself even if you’ve no notion of visiting any of the sites on it. It looks class and is very reasonably priced.

Continuing on from the Round Tower you can stroll around the wonderful looped Cliff Walk and take in the breath-taking sea views. Along the way watch out for Fr. O’Donnell’s Well, The Lookout and the Samson wreck. All are great for an Instagram worthy photo-op! You’ll stumble across St. Declan’s Well while on this beautiful walk. This is an oasis of serenity and calm. Make sure you take time to sit and enjoy the sound of complete silence or maybe the odd wave lapping against the coast below. This is one of my favourite places in the village.
