What a special place Standun's is. It is a lovely place to spend time -- yes, looking around, finding gifts for others (and I always find something for me), but also sitting in the tea room. The feeling in the place is special, homey, friendly. The staff people welcome you to relax and spend time. Then, they are so helpful with ideas, with assistance, and with posting. It's one of my favorite places in the West (I'm here for three months, so I've had many occasions just to go in and sit and enjoy the place -- I've visited in August, in Sept, in Oct, in November -- for the great sale, too). Thank you, Standun's.…

My wife and I were looking for Irish made gifts for our family and stopped in at Standun’s Oughterard store. We found Aran sweaters for our two younger grandchildren but my wife wanted to get our daughter’s OK. Siobhan suggested we take pix and e-mail them to our daughter while she would hold them aside for us. The next day when we stopped in to say we wanted the two, my wife mentioned to Shiela that we were trying to find sweaters for our son and son-in-law. Shiela showed us some but the ones that appealed to us were not in the sizes we needed. No problem, Shiela ordered them up from the home store so we could see them next day. At the same time, a poncho caught my wife’s eye - perfect for daughter and granddaughter, and she looked good in one, too. Olivia and Shiela checked and found the colors we wanted were available again at the home store, and they ordered them so they were there the next day for our inspection. Final count, Aran sweaters for son, son-in-law, older and younger grandsons, and younger daughter; Aran knit ponchos for wife, daughter and daughter-in-law. What a wonderful store and what a fantastic group of sales ladies. Siobhan, Shiela and Olivia made the whole shopping experience a genuine pleasure. And when we got home, our older granddaughter (for whom we had gotten a bodhram because she is musical) snuggled into her mother’s poncho, so we called over and Shiela is shipping another poncho to us for her for Christmas. This is one fabulous store.…

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Standún store in Oughterard, Co Galway. What a little gem it is. There is something there for everyone and I just love their Christmas window display. I'd recommend this store for your Christmas gift shopping. Prices are reasonable and the staff are so lovely. I dealt with a lady called Sheila, she was absolutely wonderful, she couldn't do enough to help. Thanks @Standún, I'll be definitely back.…
