Perfectly encapsulated ancient Ireland

Rathcroghan (Cruachan Aí), based in the medieval village of Tulsk in County Roscommon is home to Rathcroghan Visitor Centre. Since 1999 Rathcroghan Vistor Centre has been welcoming visitors to explore the “Ancient Capital of Connacht” through various guided tours, its museum, exhibitions and interpretive rooms.

Thin Slice Digital was approached by Rathcroghan to create an immersive experience that entices its users to find out more and visit the centre. The new design incorporated an in-keeping design style, a new and improved booking system, interactive maps and images, and a brand new ecommerce shop. The finished website is representative of a modern visitor centre that immerses its users and invites its visitors to bring Ireland’s past and legends to life.

What Our Clients Say

I had the pleasure of working with Thin Slice Digital in the redevelopment of our tourism website www.rathcroghan.ie. Our project was ambitious in its plan, and complex in the types of things we wished to achieve, and Justin and the team were patient, thoughtful and committed in considering all of our requests and making our plan a reality. We now have an exceptionally attractive and fully functional website to meet all of our needs as a tourism enterprise, which also performs very keenly in attracting new interest and visitors to our services. This would not have been achieved without Thin Slice Digital and its dedicated and friendly service. I would strongly recommend Thin Slice Digital and its service to our colleagues in the tourism industry.
