Ballintrillick Environmental Group Ltd

Ballintrillick Environmental Group Ltd. opened The Benwiskin Centre in July 2000.
The basic premise of the Centre is that it is a Community Centre in the wintertime with functions, entertainment and a place for the local and neighbouring community to use for meetings and socials.

The Centre has a dual purpose as it also provides self catering hostel accommodation for the summertime, which is the main revenue generator for the building.

In reality, over the past 10 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!
At this point, we are delivering a range of services for the local and neighbouring community, whilst at the same time providing employment for local people.

Through our tourism related initiatives, we have welcomed thousands of visitors to our beautiful area, thus generating badly needed economic activity.
