Sheen Falls Lodge, Kenmare, Co. Kerry

A closer look

A place with character.

Sheen Falls is the polished option in Kerry: a large estate hugging the river with the Caha mountains behind and the falls lit at night. Service is the reason people book it, and a small wedding gets the same standard as a big one.

Kenmare is five minutes away, which gives guests a proper town for the weekend with the Ring of Kerry and Beara from the door. It is not exclusive use, so ask what else is on.
