For a traditional family shopping experience there is no better place to visit than the Foxford Woollen Mills. There is an array of fantastic gifts to choose from in a relaxed and stress-free environment that is ideal for a family day out.
You can visit the fully working woollen mill and see the traditional production methods at work before browsing through the mill's shop to select the ideal Christmas gift for any member of the family. You will find gifts for the home from soft furnishings to fabulous French dressers and everything in between. There is also a fine selection of men's and ladies’ fashion and accessories to suit any taste and budget. The Woollen Mills complex also houses Foxford Jewellers where you can see traditional jewellery-making methods in action. You can have a unique handmade piece made to order for a truly personalised gift this Christmas.
When you're all shopped out you have to visit the It'so cafe which is truly the icing on the cake of any trip to the Foxford Woollen Mills. It'so cafes are a fantastic place to drop in for food that is not only tasty, fresh, natural and seasonal but is prepared and served by people who are genuinely passionate about the food they deliver.
You will be greeted by the delicious homely aromas of traditional locally sourced roasts and all the traditional seasonal veg and trimmings. For a more contemporary dish, why not try the Thai green curry and basmati rice, which is a taste sensation? Because of the demand for their quality home-made dishes it'so have just added an extra dining area called the Pattern Room which is ready just in time for the Christmas rush. The products on offer in their store range from the delicious to the sublime with a product range that is hand selected for the quality of ingredients and production methods used.
Dittys Handmade Irish Biscuits, Cahill's Farm Original Irish Porter Cheese, Bandon Vale Vintage Irish Farmhouse Cheese, Carta Vieja Chilean Organic Chardonnay, Lir Gold Premium Irish Chocolates, Valle Dorado-Merlot, Carrigaline Handmade Cheese and JM Gremillet Champagne are just a selection of the treats on offer.
They also have a fantastic selection of it'so Christmas treats handmade by their expert bakers. Everything from Christmas cakes to Yule logs and mince pies (which are to die for ) are available to take away as a very welcome gift when visiting friends or relatives this Christmas. If you're lucky they might even give you a slice too. The expert chefs are working on a delicious Christmas relish that will be the perfect complement to the post-Christmas sandwiches and will breathe life into all the Christmas leftovers. Pre-Christmas you'll need to grab some traditional goose fat to ensure the perfect roast vegetables this Yuletide.
These fantastic food products, a foodie’s dream, can be combined in an individualised Christmas gift basket that will be appreciated by your food- and wine-loving friends and relations. Prices range from €19.95 to €150 so you will find something to suit every taste and budget. The ethos of it'so and the Foxford Woollen Mills complex in general is very focused on local employment, so make sure you get down before Christmas and support quality local produce that will make for a very special Christmas gift.
