Property Details

Like other Relais & Chateaux properties across the globe, Sheen Falls Lodge has earned inclusion in this select group by virtue of its unparalleled service. Small-town charm meets world-class dining, and the very best modern hotel amenities complement the authentic experiences that await. Guests have the benefit of various luxurious accommodations hidden on the distinct 300-acre estate.

The wonders of Kenmare and the Ring of Kerry are best experienced from one of the 66 rooms and suites at Sheen Falls Lodge. Premium Danish bedding adorns the beds, thoughtful furnishings fill the space, and a sense of calm and comfort is almost tangible. Whatever abode you choose, views over the Sheen Falls themselves or towards Kenmare Bay will be a constant reminder that you are at the doorstep of Ireland’s idyllic natural playground.

A stay in the villas at Sheen Falls Lodge elevates the typical country cottage experience. Available in two- to four-bedroom configurations and secluded on private grounds, these thatched-roof cottages are deceptively rustic. Inside find luxurious interiors, cozy crackling fireplaces, and ample private kitchen and dining spaces. Each cottage is unique, and all are ideal for groups or families traveling together.

Classical Irish dishes updated for discerning diners are what have earned The Falls restaurant its 2 AA Rosette distinction. Fresh local fare is combined with meats prepared in the onsite smoke house and plated to perfection. Add a vintage from the largest wine cellar in Ireland or a creation from the cocktail bar for an unforgettable dining experience.

Indulge in a treatment from the talented therapists at the Easanna Spa during your stay. Atlantic seaweed wraps, mud baths, or a simple steam in the sauna are among the treats for the body and mind. The indoor swimming pool is kept heated for enjoyment in any season, but take care not to forgo exploration on the estate.

The Sheen River runs through the grounds, and the fishing on this private stretch is outstanding. Guests may also embark on hikes and walks through the woodland, cycle to town on one of the hotel’s complimentary bikes, or try their hand at falconry and clay pigeon shooting. Venture farther afield with your Ker & Downey guide to experience the famed beauty of the Ring of Kerry for yourself.
