Home to 9 craft studios and the resident designer-makers. Find unique items handcrafted with care for your home, garden and gifts for others: hand-made cards, rustic furniture, glassware, candles, leatherwork, vintage style accessories and gifts, jewellery, pottery and traditional wooden toys are all handmade here. You can also make you own crafts. Drop in to paint pottery and dip candles or book ahead to build a piece of furniture and to have fun with fabrics on a cake and make morning. Open throughout the season. Many craftspeople are crafting away during the winter months and their studios are open. It's always worth checking, with the individual craftspeople before making a special journey (individual contact details can be found on the Corris Craft Centre website). At the centre of the Craft Studios is Y Crochan cafe which is light, bright and modern with view all around of the densely wooded hillsides of the Corris Valley. Lots of delicious locally grown and sourced ingredients are used to create a simple yet tasty menu with a Welsh twist. Hot and cold food, drinks and home made cakes are served throughout the day. There's an outdoor seating area and a small childrens' play area. In our new Welsh Food and Drink shop you'll find shelves of wonderful produce which has been grown, reared and produced often within a few miles of Corris. The Craft Centre is also the starting point fo the King Arthur's Labyrinth underground adventure and Corris Mine Explorers. There's also a Tourist Information Point.
