Travel offer: K Club, Co Kildare
This is a golf-lovers’ paradise, but it’s more than just a hotel with fairway attached, boasting 550 acres of grounds, huge bedrooms and an amazing array of activities to undertake.
THE SPA EXPERIENCE: The recently renovated K Spa is one of the country’s best. Book into one of two private suites or opt for one of the 14 treatment rooms. There’s also an outdoor hot tub, 16.5m pool, relaxation room and more. Start with the 25-minute Exclusive K Spa Scrub to soften skin, then go for The Real Aromatherapy Massage, using Aromatherapy Associates oils to both soothe and stimulate.
AFTER SPA: Have a round of golf on either of the Palmer-designed courses. There’s a mapped garden walk for botany enthusiasts, and plenty of river and lake fishing.
ON THE MENU: In the Byerley Turk Restaurant, try risotto of aged Acquerello Carnaroli rice with black Périgord truffle, followed by Bere Island king scallops. There’s also the brasserie-style River Room, or grab a bite in the Vintage Crop bar.
COST: From €280 per room per night; Oak Suite Massage Ritual, €270 for three hours; Exclusive K Spa Scrub, €75.
