The Benwiskin Centre is set in a beautiful scenic rural location in Ballintrillick, North Co. Sligo, in the shadow of Benwiskin Mountain, part of Ireland’s Dartry Mountain range, with the Sligo coastline a short distance away. The Benwiskin Centre invites you to come and experience the beauty of the North West of Ireland.
Ballintrillick Environmental Group Ltd.(‘BEG’) opened The Benwiskin Centre in July 2000. The basic premise of the Centre is that it is a Community Centre in the wintertime with classes, functions, entertainment and a place for the local community to use for meeting and socials. It is a Tourist Hostel for the summertime, which is the main revenue generator for the building. In reality, over the past 11 years we have found that we actually have guests all year round. Depending on visitors staying, we also have community usage in the summertime too. It’s a fine balance trying to accommodate both!
