Sheen Falls Lodge

A former marquis's summer retreat on the Sheen River in Kerry, now a country house hotel with a Michelin 2 Keys distinction. Rooms run to pastels and florals with views of the falls or Kenmare Bay; the cottages and villas push steadily toward the extravagant end of the scale. A 1936 Buick Roadmaster sits on the grounds for guests who prefer their leisure activities period-appropriate, alongside fishing, shooting, golf, and a spa.
