We had our wedding in Sheen Falls in November 2025. It was absolutely the best day of our lives and so much of that is down to Sheen Falls and the fantastic team they have.

Questions about the venue
Can we hire the entire lodge for privacy?+
Sheen Falls operates as a functioning hotel, so exclusive buyout isn't standard. However, you can book multiple rooms and reserve primary event spaces. Contact the venue directly to discuss tailored packages for your group size.
What's included in the ceremony fee?+
The ceremony space rental, tables, chairs, and basic sound system are typically included. Florals, photography, and external vendors are additional. Request a detailed proposal from the venue.
Are there outdoor ceremony alternatives if weather turns poor?+
Yes. Indoor ceremony rooms with river views are available as backup spaces.
How far is the nearest airport?+
Kerry Airport is 35 km away (45 minutes by car). Cork Airport, 100 km south, offers more flight options and is 90 minutes away.
Can we arrange group transportation for guests?+
Yes. The lodge recommends booking coach hire through local operators or arranging shuttles from nearby train stations (Kenmare is walkable for town arrivals).
