Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

If you're looking for an authentic Ireland gift then this is the place for you! Cyndi and her sister run this charming business located in a genuine thatched cottage. Cyndi is enthusiastic to share about her handweaving and has some lovely items for sale. I purchased a scarf and it is beautiful, even more so since I was able to see who made it and where it was made!

Cyndi Graham is the most exuberant and fantastic person who truly loves what she does and literally throws herself into her work. After asking her parents if she and her family could move back in with them, she set to work restoring the original family manse across the street from their current house. She creates products from scratch, showing us how wool is carted, spun, and set up for mounting it on the loom for weaving. Her loom is quite large and emanates from 1884. It has been passed down thru the family. What else that’s unusual is that most looms only have four pedals while hers has six. This ensures that she can create more complicated patterns than normal. While she does the weaving, her sister sows the loomed material into masterful creations such as jackets and capes. This adventure in the creation of material and finished products is not to be missed.

The delightful Cyndi and her family share their stone and thatched cottage weaving studio. She shares her story of how she became involved in weaving and demonstrates her skill. An inspiring story and lifestyle. Beautiful gifts to buy too.

We happened along this wonderful studio 3 years ago during our 2 week trip around Ireland. It still sits so clearly in my mind. Wonderful atmosphere, the craft of weaving in such traditional means with extremely old looms was fascinating. A highlight of our trip and Cyndi was so generous with her time.

Cyndi Graham's workshop is a rare and precious Jewel of a find. Her handwoven fabrics with unique colourful combinations reflect the natural, and ever-changing beauty, of Donegal. The simple, stylish designs of her clothing and accessories are truly lovely, pay her a visit if you are in the area.

Old history books and teachings speak of cottage industries, well this takes that to a new level. Yes its an old style cottage with a tatch roof selling traditional Irish wares. Its not cheap tat from China or thurd world countries. When you pass by it to view the lighthouse stop off if its open, well worth it.

My wife and I visited Cyndi Graham's small delightful thatch roofed studio, a beautifully restored 100 year old cottage. As an architect, I was interest to see it, especially the thatch roof which is neatly done and secured with chicken wire over the thatch and tightly fastened at the end gables. If you have an architectural interest, by all means visit this little studio. The best is inside, weaver Cyndi and her loom, and the beautiful weaves she makes. Truly a treasure to visit if you are going to St. John's Point.

First - St John's point is just beautiful if you like green fields,sheep,a rugged coast and the ocean!
Second - Cyndi works in an old cottage - thatched roof, uses a loom that is over 100 years old, and weaves wool into material for scarves, shawls, pillow cases and hats. The material is superb - great colors and fine workmanship.
But the best part is Cyndi! She is a great demonstrator. She will spend time to answer all your questions and shows you all steps she uses to weave yarn into a beautiful wool fabric.
