Logistics

Planning your stay


Airports

We recommend flying into:

Kerry Airport - 1hr 20 mins to Sneem
Cork Airport - 1hr 50 mins to Sneem
Shannon Airport - 3hrs to Sneem

Car Rentals

Whatever deal you can find at the airports! Make sure you take care on those Kerry roads!

If you're flying into Kerry - make sure you drive via Killarney - so you don't go over the crazy / potentially closed roads.

Taxi's

You will need to pre-book but there are options for taxi's from the airport. Worth researching but we've found an option here

Day Two

For our English Geezers and Gazelles - Irish weddings also have a day two. This will take place in the village of Sneem, a 10 minute walk from Sneem Hotel.

What to do

In the ring of kerry

As this is the bank holiday weekend in England, we're hoping everyone can make a holiday of their trip and experience the joy of Kerry.

Home of the O'Sheas

Waterville is the only beachfront village of the lovely ring of Kerry. This is also home to the O'Sheas. We recommend heading to the beach front and pulling the Chaplin pose with the statue. The Butler's Arms for a pint (try to spot Eavan's Grandad in the photos with Charlie Chaplin). The Lobster for food and live music... the Villa, if you drink too much and need more music.

Fancy a dip?

The west coastline of Ireland is very well-known for its wild Atlantic waves and is a favourite for watersport enthusiasts. Aside from the stunning Ballinskelligs Beach, perhaps the area’s crowning attraction is the truly spectacular Ballinskelligs Castle.
