Ard na Sidhe Country House, Munster

Description: Ard na Sidhe Country House

Surrounded by lush, award-winning gardens, this charming property is located on the shores of Caragh Lake, close to Killorglin, on the scenic Ring of Kerry. Situated in an elegant early 20th century mansion, originally built by Lady Gordon in 1913, this luxury boutique hotel offers exclusive accommodation and fine cuisine in a spectacular lakeside setting.

Ideal for tranquil, peaceful getaways in County Kerry, Ard na Sidhe Country House stands in a Special Area of Conservation, and as such it is perfect for a range of outdoor activities, including boating and fishing on the lake, golf, and hiking in the spectacular mountains of Macgillycuddy's Reeks. When the time comes to rest, guests will find just seventeen elegantly furnished rooms, featuring graceful antique furniture, deep mattresses, full feather pillows and crisp Irish linen. Televisions and radios are deliberately left out of the picture.

The intimate dining room with dramatic lake views offers romantic candlelit dinners, with a careful selection of both regional and international dishes. Cuisine is based on the finest local produce, including freshly caught Atlantic fish and seafood, the finest Kerry lamb, local cheeses and fresh summer fruit. For moments of quiet relaxation, guests can also enjoy afternoon tea on the terrace, or an evening drink by the open fire in the lounge.
