Reviews of Woodie's Wellpark (Galway)
Walter Brennan
They have a wide range of household items, for garden and interior decoration. A bit on the expensive side so I would recommend shopping around.
Mohsin Tahir
Woodie’s Wellpark is a great spot for DIY and home essentials. Wide variety, well-organized aisles, and helpful staff. Easy parking and quick checkout make shopping smooth. Always find what I need here!
Patrick S McFadden
Good hardware outlet with ample parking just outside the main entrance. If you are unfamiliar with this store please ask customer service or any of the floor staff you see for help locating your items. This will save you not only time but also the scenario of looking for something that is either not there or out of stock.
