Sheen Fall Lodge
Kenmare

Situated just outside the pretty town of Kenmare, Sheen Falls Lodge has a glorious setting that offers spectacular views over Kenmare Bay and Sheen Waterfalls. Built in the style of a large country house, the overall feel of the property is plush, quiet and understated. Located off the classic tourist train, the hotel is the perfect base to explore the Ring of Kerry and its surroundings. Rooms are incredibly spacious and very comfortable with lovely views; interiors are a mix of cosy, homely and modern styles with every need catered for. The hotel's restaurant, The Fall, has prime location overlooking the waterfalls and several public rooms offer a quiet place to relax and enjoy your surroundings in front of roaring fires and lake views. Staff are helpful and friendly and facilities onsite include a spa, swimming pool, stables and smokehouse. Outdoor activities can be arranged on request.

To my mind, the greatest reward and luxury of travel is to be able to experience everyday things as if for the first time, to be in a position in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted.
