Dining

Globetrotting gastronomes will be in their element at The Falls, the hotel’s two AA Rosette restaurant, famed for its seasonal menu showcasing fresh, local fare – think home-smoked salmon caught on the estate, seafood from Castletownbere, and organic vegetables plucked from the ground of nearby farms.

The team behind the menu put a modern spin on Irish classics, bringing a unique culinary flair to the table for a feast for the senses. Be sure to try the three-tier afternoon tea in the Sun Lounge and make an evening of it with a couple of colourful creations from the Cocktail Bar.

Wellness

A haven of tranquillity, Easanna Spa is a rustic-chic space with rough-brick walls ringing a swimming pool bathed in light streaming through vast expanses of glass. Wash away the day with a loop of the sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi, or simply laze on poolside loungers for such blissful downtime. For an extra treat, pick a treatment from the jam-packed menu of Elemis facials, soothing massages with organic Voya products, Atlantic seaweed body wraps and luxurious mani-pedis.

Location

Tucked away among 300 acres of waterfall-dotted woodland, Sheen Falls Lodge is located near Kenmare Bay, one mile from the town of Kenmare in County Kerry. The property is a great base for exploring the southwest, the Ring of Beara, Ring of Kerry and the Killarney Lakes.
