Belleek Pottery Experiences
Located in the charming village of Belleek by the banks of the River Erne, Belleek Pottery offers history, heritage and hands-on experiences that showcase the very best of this iconic institution.
Belleek Pottery is the oldest working fine china pottery on the island of Ireland. For over 160 years, skilled local craftspeople have been forging world-renowned pieces of pottery, porcelain and earthenware at this site and very little has changed over time in terms of how the pieces are produced. Each piece of Belleek is handcrafted by 16 individual artisans. A chance to glimpse the creation of such fine crafts is not to be missed if you’re in the area.
Among the experiences you can choose from, there’s a classic guided tour that goes behind-the-scenes at the factory, an afternoon tea experience that overlooks glistening Lough Erne, and an interactive kids trail that highlights colourful ceramic works. It’s also an ideal place to pick up top quality gifts and souvenirs on your trip. The show room here is packed with unique pieces of Belleek fine china, jewellery and clothing that you won’t find on the online store.
