Kenmare
,
A privately owned country house 5 star hotel in Kenmare, in the beautiful South West of Ireland. Within reach of three major airports of Shannon, Cork and Kerry. Sheen Falls Lodge is on the famously scenic Ring of Kerry, ten minutes from the brightly coloured village of Kenmare and only 30 minutes from the vibrant town of Killarney. Surrounded by purple heathered mountains and cascading blue waters.
When the first stones were laid down in the 1600's how could anyone have imagined that this magnificent lodge in Kenmare, Co. Kerry would become one of the most celebrated 5 Star hotels in Ireland.
Once the summer residence of the Marquis of Lansdowne, in its day the Sheen Falls Lodge welcomed the gentry in their pursuit of deer hunting and salmon fishing. Thankfully today the deer roam the estate and surrounding woodlands freely, and visitors from all over the world can now enjoy the luxury accommodations of the lodge and the stunning beauty of its environs. The setting of 300 acres of magical woodlands and crystal cascading waterfalls, is truly unique to Sheen Falls Lodge.
With its luxury accommodations, its reserves of ageing port, its rare books and sumptuous cuisine, the lodge retains the warm, welcoming atmosphere of a country manor house. The estate boasts a plethora of outdoor activities; salmon fishing on a private stretch of the Sheen River, clay pigeon shooting, hill walking trails and cycling tours.
