Belgarth Bodhrans - Traditional Bodhrans from the Orkney Isles

Belgarth Bodhrans is a small company from Orkney, the group of islands that lie to the north of Scotland.

Run by us, Jane and Eoin Leonard, the company began in a small way in 1996, making and selling handmade bodhrans and beaters to local friends and family.

We had been making bodhrans as a hobby since 1994 but as more and more orders for drums came in, the hobby gradually grew into a business. Over the years we have continued to develop our craft and the business, finally taking the plunge and going full-time in November 1998.

Eoin now concentrates on the design and construction of the drums and beaters while Jane lends her artistic talents to the decoration of the frames.

Since the inception of the company much effort has gone into developing and improving our distinctive drums. They are now shipped worldwide and among the growing number of clients, Belgarth Bodhrans are used by a number of professional musicians.

Our aim has always been to make a high quality musical instrument and our simple philosophy is that if we only use top quality materials and put our best efforts into each drum then we will not be far off the mark.
