Sheen
Falls Lodge is a magical, timeless haven of peace, situated just outside
the charming town of Kenmare in beautiful County Kerry.
The hotel nestles serenely at the foot of heather-covered hills and overlooks
the cascading Sheen River Waterfalls. Gracious living is a tradition here.
You can relax in spacious lounges, where log fires blaze and the professional,
friendly staff, are more than ready to please.
Fresh local produce, home grown herbs and innovation are combined with
flair to bring you the very best of Irish and International cuisine. One
can select a vintage from the Hotel's cellar and should you catch a salmon
along the 15 miles stretch of private fishing grounds, the Chef will even
smoke it for you.
Now a little history - back in the 17th century, the Earl of Kerry chose
as his seat the high ground overlooking the falls of the Sheen River,
where it tumbles dramatically into the tidal estuary. The house he built
on this site now forms the core of the present day Sheen Falls Lodge.
Today, from the hotel, the visitor observes the views of woodland, water
and mountains, much as they were in the Earl's day, but do so in the comfort
that is Sheen Falls Lodge.

60 impeccably appointed guestrooms including 8 suites, 8 superior and
44 deluxe rooms. All rooms offer panoramic views of woodlands and water,
