Sheen Falls Lodge, Kenmare, County Kerry
Luxury Five-Star Hotel. Country Location
It’s hard to imagine a more idyllic and peaceful location than that occupied by Sheen Falls Lodge. Situated by Kenmare Bay and overlooking the cascading Sheen Waterfalls, Sheen Falls Lodge is still just five minutes’ drive from the heart of Kenmare, a beautiful town with many superb local pubs and restaurants. Guests can choose from a range of guestrooms but we would recommend one overlooking the falls, where you can retire and wake with the sound of softly cascading water in the background. The hotel offers a good choice of dining options and the leisure facilities include a swimming pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, steam room and a range of treatment rooms.

Sightseeing
The main attraction of Ireland as a golf destination may indeed be its great golf courses but the overall experience is influenced by many other factors including great accommodation options, restaurants, pubs, people, and not least it’s stunning scenery and superb visitor attractions. Each region offers something very different and with all locations being quite close together, it’s very easy to mix the stunning countryside and coastline with more urban attractions.
We work with each of our clients to recommend what suits their trip best. You may have a full day to spend sightseeing or you may prefer to squeeze in a quick stop on the way to or from the golf course but we will make sure that you maximise your experience at all times. The below is intended as a very general guide to sightseeing in Southwest Ireland.
Offering so much superb scenery, interesting attractions and beautiful little towns and villages, it is impossible to find the time to take in everything in this region of Ireland. The main city is Cork and while in the area, visitors should be sure to include the likes of Blarney Castle, Fota Wildlife Park, Cork City Jail Heritage Centre, Titanic Experience Cobh and Midleton Distillery.
Another area where you are likely to find yourself is Kinsale, a beautiful harbour town south of Cork City and a convenient base from which to play Old Head Golf Links. Known as the gourmet capital of Ireland, Kinsale boasts many superb restaurants but you should also take in a Kinsale Harbour Cruise and visit the stunning Charles Fort just outside town.
Killarney is a particularly popular location for golfers and as a central base from which to play the great courses nearby, Killarney is hard to beat. Whether you have a full free day to take in the sights or a half day before or after golf, there is much to see, including the scenic Dingle Peninsula, Muckross House, Gardens & Traditional Farms, Torc Waterfall (pictured above), the Gap of Dunloe, Killarney National Park, Ross Castle and Kate Kearney’s Cottage.
A typical golfing itinerary in the Southwest would see you spend at least some time in County Clare, from where you can play the likes of Lahinch and Doonbeg. Here again, there are many terrific sightseeing options. If you are travelling with family, a trip to the Aillwee Caves in Ballyvaughan is a great day out, while other locations of interest include the Cliffs of Moher, Bunratty Castle & Folk Park, the Burren Centre and Craggaunowen Living Past.
