ACCOMMODATION REVIEW
Nestling at the foot of the heather-clad Caha Mountains on the banks of the River Sheen, Sheen Falls Lodge represents a magnificent oasis of tranquility just outside Kenmare. Set on a private 300-acre wooded estate, Sheen Falls was originally an 18th century fishing lodge. Purchased in 1988, the property underwent an extensive restoration programme. Today, Sheen Falls is regarded as one of Ireland's very best hotels and was recently rated among the best in Europe by Condé Naste Traveler.

Guests can relax in the spacious lounges where log fires blaze or relax in the library where over 1,000 volumes of classic and modern literature are available. The bedrooms, which offer spectacular views of the waterfall or bay, are particularly spacious and well appointed and are typified by a mélange of pale woods, rich fabrics and expensive marble bathrooms. Guests are free to roam the hotel's gardens and woodland and enjoy the breathtaking scenery of the Kenmare region.

When not golfing, dining or simply relaxing in incomparable luxury, the hotel offers a plethora of activities to preoccupy the mind. Pony trekking, salmon and trout fishing on the River Sheen, clay pigeon shooting, floodlit tennis and a fully equipped health and fitness centre are among the many excellent facilities on offer here. Situated just a mile from Kenmare, Sheen Falls is the perfect base for touring the world-famous Ring of Kerry. Visitors can also sample Kenmare's lace making traditions, a practice that is demonstrated in Kenmare's Heritage Centre.
