Round House


The Rathcormac Craft Village is a beautifully restored farm yard from the 17th Century, situated at the foot of Benbulben near the final resting place of W.B. Yeats. The craft village is set on a 100 acre farm that stretches to the sea in an area of north Sligo that has an ancient historical and mythological past.

The Craft Village provides an ideal environment for creative artwork and the yard has been transformed into a creative hub for the North West.

Old stone buildings flanked by ancient sycamores provide a backdrop for a calm and welcoming atmosphere where the public can stroll at leisure around the craft workshops which include Ceramic Art, Woodturning, Pottery, Stained Glass, Jewellery, Antiques and Sculpture.

After visiting the craft units a coffee can be enjoyed in Vintage Lane cafe, before going to investigate the replica Bronze Age round house located on site among other historical exhibits and info on surrounding areas.

The Craft and food market is on Saturdays from 10-3 and is a real hive of activity, produce and crafts are bought and sold in a friendly community market every weekend, with live guest musicians and buskers providing entertainment. Ample coach and car parking is available.
