Welcome to the Bawnacre Centre

The Bawnacre Centre in Irvinestown, 10 miles from Enniskillen is a unique Leisure, Youth and Community Centre. It is a Mecca for people of all ages and interests. Built on a hillside at the edge of the town, overlooking the outdoor playing fields but integrated into the site to harmonise with the surroundings, the Bawnacre Centre is finished in a colourful extravaganza of reds and greens, presenting an exciting image which is both bright and aesthetically pleasing. In fact there is a genuine feeling of 'joie de vivre' throughout the Centre as it continues to buzz all year round with a non stop programme of activities and events.
