Almost 250 guests would be accommodated in a new 72-room hostel planned for Carrick-on-Shannon.
Goldpine Partnership has applied to Leitrim County Council to develop a hostel at Flynn's Field in the town.
The construction would consist of a 3-storey mixed-use building comprising of 72 rooms, hostel reception, café, staff facilities, admin office, linen store, toilets, and service areas including bin and bike storage.
The application also includes three retail units with direct access to the street, an ESB substation and switch room accessed from Flynn's field.
The development includes all ancillary hostel facilities, and is designed to accommodate up to 244 guests.
Leitrim county planners have received the application and are due to make a decision by the end of August.
