Get your Snout into some great gifts

Ballincollig is set to gain a major new retail hub next year but it also boasts a new shop that’s open now and has a host of great gifts for Christmas.

Snout is in the Old Square in Ballincollig and is an independent shop run by two Cork ladies. The emphasis is on quality timeless gifts with options in every price range, with a good dose of quirky thrown in.

Snout is online at snout.ie, which makes it easy for you to find fabulous gifts, shop local, and support Irish makers.

Whether it’s merino scarves, woollen handwarmers, silk neckerchiefs, deep pile Irish sheepskins, plush slippers, French stoneware for the kitchen, Irish-made ceramics, funky concrete plant pots, top quality organic tea, vegan shoulder bags, a large range of natural skincare, deliciously scented artisan soaps, award winning perfume, weird and wonderful posters, fabulous Irish chocolate and biscuits, stunning jewellery, they’ve got something for you.

Best of all, it’s all available on their website if you don’t fancy going to the shops right now!

The staff at Snout know everything and everybody behind their products and will be delighted to help you choose the perfect gift this Christmas, whether you come visit the shop in the (Old) Square Ballincollig, do click and collect, or phone and collect.
