Our Lughnasa Games History
We have been running the Lughnasa Games since 2008! It's one of our favorite times of year. Please check out the photos below.
We have a purpose built dedicated one-acre twin banked Rath (based on Cloonfree, 1270 to 1306 Aodh O’Conchubhair) for this activity enclosed within our 16-acre farm.
The games are themed as traditional Celtic in the High Medieval period (about 1000 years ago). We pitch 6 medieval tents, there is a central wood fire where we cook in cauldrons and log seats allow a circle gathering around the campfire. There are medieval displays of leathercraft, camp kitchen, weapons, helmets and armour.
