Donegal Craft Village
within 5km of the North West Trail
Donegal Craft Village is situated just outside the historic town Donegal on the road to Ballyshannon and Sligo.
Established in 1985 the village has become a showcase for contemporary arts and crafts on the county. The village comprises a cluster of small units grouped around a common courtyard and divided into individual workshops leased by professional craftworkers. The crafts include metalwork, batik, jewellery, sculpture and a pipe maker. An ideal opportunity to visit craftspeople at work and to purchase unique handmade Irish gift items, made by local people. Car and coach parking free. Sunday opening times are for summer months only.
