There's no denying that Ireland is one of the most beautiful places in the world, even more so during the summer months.
I'm hoping to spend more time in Ireland this summer rather than heading abroad, and there's one hotel I'm itching to visit again.
Sheen Falls Lodge in Kenmare (book here) has to be one of the most beautiful hotels in the country. It looks like something straight out of a fairytale, and somewhere you'll never want to leave once you check in.
Sheen Falls Lodge feels otherworldly solely because it is just one of the most picturesque places you'll ever visit.
It's quite possibly one of the most peaceful hotels I've ever had the joy of staying in.

Set amid 300 acres of magnificent woodland and waterfalls, Sheen Falls Lodge is a luxurious 5-star hotel near Kenmare Bay. The striking location is just one mile from picturesque Kenmare in County Kerry.
All of the rooms are elegant and spacious, with private bathrooms, a TV, and striking views of Kenmare Bay and the cascading Sheen waterfalls.
Sheen Falls Lodge estate features estate activities, including salmon fishing on the Sheen River, golf, tennis, clay pigeon shooting, nearby horse riding, and walking.
The luxurious Health Club at Sheen Falls Lodge features facilities, including a spa bath, indoor heated swimming pool, sauna, steam room, and a contemporary gym. Guests may unwind with a range of spa treatments.
This is the perfect place for a romantic getaway, especially for those celebrating an anniversary or recent engagement.

Sheen Falls Lodge is one of the most beautiful hotels in all of Ireland. You'll never regret visiting this idyllic location.
