Kenmare, Co. Kerry: Sheen Falls Lodge
Discovering Sheen Falls Lodge: A Luxurious Retreat in Southwest Ireland
This summer, I had the pleasure of visiting the enchanting Sheen Falls Lodge in Ireland’s beautiful Southwest. If you’re looking for a luxurious getaway that combines elegance, nature, and adventure, this is the place to be. Let me take you on a journey through what it’s like to stay at this incredible 5-star resort.
A Step into Elegance and Nature
Nestled on the stunning Kenmare Bay, Sheen Falls Lodge offers a unique blend of luxurious comfort and natural beauty. As you arrive, the breathtaking views of the bay and the surrounding woodlands immediately captivate you. This privately owned retreat is a perfect gateway to the Ring of Kerry, the Beara Peninsula, and the southwestern edge of the Wild Atlantic Way.
Stroll the walking trails along the Sheen River. The peaceful sound of the falls will be sure to take all your stress away!
Previously a hunting lodge, Sheen Falls’ many fireplaces offer guests plenty of spots to cozy up next to a warm fire with a good book.
Luxurious Accommodations
Whether you choose to stay in the main hotel or one of the charming cottages and villas on the 300-acre estate, you’re in for a treat. The rooms and suites are elegantly designed, offering a serene and comfortable environment. The cottages and villas, accommodating from 4 to 8 guests, provide a home-away-from-home experience with stunning views over Kenmare Bay and beautiful landscaped private gardens. Each cottage is well-appointed with full kitchens, dining and sitting areas, and ensuite bedrooms. A welcome hamper is provided on arrival, making you feel right at home.
Endless Activities
Sheen Falls Lodge offers a plethora of activities to suit every interest. Golf enthusiasts can tee off at the Ring of Kerry Golf Club, a scenic 18-hole championship course. The hotel provides a complimentary shuttle service to and from the course, ensuring a hassle-free experience.
For those seeking relaxation, the Easanna Spa is a haven of tranquility. With an indoor pool, jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, gym, and a range of spa treatments, you can rejuvenate your body and mind.
Adventure seekers can indulge in outdoor activities such as clay pigeon shooting, private salmon fishing, falconry, horseback riding, archery, and kayaking. The hotel’s extensive grounds are perfect for heritage walks and art tours. Guests can also enjoy the complimentary use of bicycles and tennis courts.
Enjoy views of the hotel and Kenmare Bay as you explore the property on foot or on complimentary bikes.
Be sure to pack your swimsuit — a dip in the Easanna Spa pool (open to hotel guests) is the perfect way to relax after a day spent exploring.
A Culinary Delight
Dining at Sheen Falls Lodge is an experience in itself. The Falls Restaurant offers exceptional fine dining with a menu that showcases the best of Irish cuisine. For a more casual experience, The Stables Brasserie serves contemporary classics in a relaxed setting.
One of the highlights of my visit was the tour of Kenmare in the hotel’s 1936 Vintage Buick, a truly unique and memorable experience.
Seated right by the window, you can enjoy complimentary breakfast with a view of the falls in the Falls Restaurant.
