Courses
Palmer CourseIn late 2006, the Ryder Cup Course at the K Club became Ireland's first Ryder Cup venue, as it played host to Europe's record-equalling victory. It is a stadium-style resort course, and at over 7,300 yards from the tips, many commentators have described it as the most difficult inland layout in the country. Palmer has succeeded in manipulating the existing mature trees and water features to create a magnificent test for golfers of all standards. The coverage and attention that has been brought to both the K Club and Irish golf in general is richly deserved, given the faultless display that the Ryder Cup course exhibited during the Ryder Cup matches.
Accommodation
The experience at The K Club is genuinely 5-star from first to last, and as with the superb golf courses on the resort, the hotel's quality and luxury are unrivalled. The period features of the building itself are well-complemented by the first-class modern facilities inside the bedrooms and throughout the facilities. In fact, the K Club's hotel is so outstanding that it has been named Ireland's only 5 Red Star venue by the AA, and has been awarded the RAC Gold Ribbon. The surroundings are equally spectacular, as the hotel is set amidst 800 acres of stunning woodland. Since its conversion to a hotel in 1991, this former country home has consistently developed its product, and is now a complete package. The superb dining options, and first-class leisure and spa facilities round off what is one of the premier golf break destinations in the UK and Ireland. Visitors to the K Club can sample the possibilities afforded by the estate and its surroundings, including excellent fly-fishing, horse riding, clay pigeon shooting, walking, and cycling. Meanwhile, the on-site K Spa prides itself on offering the very best in health and beauty treatments. The complex also features a 16-metre swimming pool, water jet massage, Jacuzzi, sauna and steam room, while the doors open out to a ‘Zen Garden', where you can let all your troubles slide away. The Byerley Turk is a sumptuous dining room, offering the finest in French cuisine. There are superb bars in which to drink, including the Hotel Bar of the Year, the Vintage Crop, named after Dr. Michael Smurfit's superb horse which became the first horse to surpass £1million in earnings.
