Irish Turf Candles is a family‑owned business based in Burt, County Donegal, specialising in unique handmade turf candles and home fragrance products inspired by traditional Irish peat fires. Just below one of Ireland’s best‑kept secrets, An Grianan of Aileagh, the company offers visitors an authentic and memorable Irish experience while exploring local heritage. (irish-turf-candles.ie)

Housed within Maguire’s old tin hut, a historic building dating back to the early 1900s, the shop retains much of its original interior. Once the local hub of Burt village — serving as a Post Office, Filling Station, Grocers, and Hardware store — it now welcomes visitors with ample parking, including coach access. While here, guests can enjoy coffee and treats from the neighbouring Curious Coffee Co, renowned for its excellent service and offerings.
