    Howth Castle

    Howth Castle

    Located on the north side of Dublin and nestled on 472 acres of beautiful parkland, 15th-century Howth Castle is one of Ireland's most historic properties and was home to the one family for 800 years. Today it welcomes visitors to the castle grounds for an up-close glimpse of royal life and dinner. Enjoy a special farewell here, with cocktails, a private tour of the castle with a historian, and a hands-on cooking class with professional chefs who carry on the traditions of exceptional cooking and grand dining practiced in the Castle for centuries. Help them prepare your farewell dinner, and enjoy it in the castle's private dining room.

    Slea Head Drive

    Slea Head Drive

    Part of the Wild Atlantic Way, the Slea Head Drive is considered one of the most authentic and quintessential Irish road trips. Located on the Dingle Peninsula in County Kerry, it is widely regarded as a more intimate, alternative to the more traveled Ring of Kerry. Thirty-three miles long, the circular route passes through the Gaeltacht region, where Irish is still spoken daily, and astounds with dramatic cliffs and rugged coastlines amidst views of sea and the Blasket Islands. Ancient sites, including pre-historic beehive huts, the 12th-century Gallarus Oratory, and early monastic settlements, pay tribute to the people who settled here centuries ago, while small villages and grazing sheep attest to the timeless draw of the land. Learn about the locals who lived off the land and sea during a visit to the Blasket Centre, one of the most fascinating stops along this unforgettable drive, before returning to Dingle, where you'll dine like the locals do.

    Sheen Falls Lodge

    Sheen Falls Lodge

    Nestled on the edge of Kenmare Bay in County Kerry, Sheen Falls Lodge has a history as rich as its setting. Originally a Victorian hunting lodge dating back to the 19th century, the estate has long welcomed travelers seeking both refinement and a deep connection to Ireland's natural beauty. Its scenic views stretch across Kenmare Bay to the rugged peaks of the MacGillycuddy's Reeks, while the cascading Sheen Falls provide a constant, soothing backdrop for hotel guests. Steeped in Celtic lore and infused with genuine Irish warmth, Sheen Falls Lodge is not just a place to stay, but a sense of place, where Irish history, landscape, and hospitality come together to create something truly magical.
