Good Craic Gifts is a great wee gift shop celebrating the village of Rostrevor and the local area. Much of the stock is hand-crafted locally. There is a fun range of quirky gifts and souvenirs. There is also a growing range of locally made greeting cards to suit almost any purpose. Local artists are most welcome to come in and discuss joining the fun.

Definitely not your average antique shop. Decorative Antiques and Interiors based at 68-70 Castle Street, Comber, County Down. We’re definitely not antique experts and don’t profess to be… we simply buy with our eyes, and what we buy is based on personal taste. From an architectural background we have a keen eye for design and strong spacial awareness. This carries through to, and influences our showrooms and their contents. Our stock varies widely but we’re particularly interested in 18th & 19th century furniture. This forms the core of our showrooms which are then accessorised by hand selected curiosities, taxidermy and art. We always have a fine selection of ever changing decorative antiques, unique (often weird and wonderful) bits and bobs and interior pieces, sourced from all over the uk and further afield, restored or refurbished and ready for your home. We're pretty sure it's not what you'd expect ;)
