Sneem is a picturesque village situated on the famous “Ring of Kerry” a driving and cycling route that encapsulates some of the best nature has to offer.

Nestled between mountains and wild, rugged coastlines, this friendly village is immaculately kept with its traditional buildings, pubs, restaurants and craft shops, all painted in an array of beautiful colours. The Irish name for the town is “an tSnaidhm” which translates as “knot” and is a reference to the winding river which flows through the village and into Kenmare bay.

This is a place of richly wooded hillsides, grassy paths, sub-tropical gardens, golden beaches, island treasures, sparkling lakes, secret coves, palm trees and incredible coastline. Brushed by the Gulf Stream, the area has a tranquil feel; it truly is the Garden of Ireland.

The area is home to two 4* hotels, both set in idyllic waterside locations and is an ideal destination for small meetings and incentive groups, wishing to take advantage of the activities and tours available in the immediate surrounds. Alternatively, it is popular as a day tour option for pre/post, social or partner programs if holding an event in one of the other locations in the region.

Sneem is set in idyllic walking country and every walk here has a story. Ancient history is clearly seen in the stone circles, standing stones, bullán stones and ringforts which surround the village.

For the adventurous, take to the water to kayak, fish, swim, dive and sail and explore the Bay’s rich marine habitat, including one of Ireland’s largest seal colonies.

Alternatively, allow the beauty and tranquillity to re-energise, refresh and reward delegates by enjoying an extensive range of shore-based activities.
