THE LOCATION OF ARD-NA-RI

Ard-na-Ri is set amid the magnificent scenery of the Ring of Kerry - famous throughout the world.

Sitting proudly above the world class 18 hole Ring of Kerry Golf & Country Club it overlooks the second green of this fabulous golf course, down to the Kenmare Bay and across to the Beara Peninsular.

Kenmare has been described as "The Jewell on the Ring of Kerry" and it truly lives up to its title. The town, founded in 1670 by Sir William Petty, has many of its original features still preserved.

Kenmare has long been acknowledged as a haven for gourmets and people who just enjoy good food. It's location on the edge of the sea provides Kenmare with seafood that is quite simply the best there is. There is a range of restaurants to suit all tastes (and pockets!), whether you prefer to relax and enjoy fine dining, rated as some of the most artful in Ireland (New York Times) or sit in a local pub and feast on wild mussels fresh from the cleanest waters in Europe - Kenmare is the place to be. At the very top end of the range Kenmare has two exclusive hotels, The Park Hotel and The Sheen Falls; both play host to politicians, stars from screen, TV. & the stage and millionaires from across the world.
