(2238)

The K Club is a smart country resort, tucked away in rustic Kildare yet just a stone’s throw from the bustle of Dublin city. Our 550-acre resort, unparalleled in its scope and beauty, is built around a remarkable architectural centrepiece, the magnificently restored Straffan House, originally established in 1832. Captivatingly moreish, varied yet fantastically focused; dining always comes with a g

enerous dollop of passion and creativity at The K Club. Across our seven different food and drinks spaces, guests are guaranteed superb taste and flavour sensations, thoughtful attention to detail, produce-led dishes and drinks of distinction. The K Club is also home to an unrivalled array of exciting outdoors pursuits and indoor activities from hiking or cycling along our legendary K Trails, to paddle-boarding, horse riding, clay-pigeon shooting, whiskey tasting, wine cellar tours, falconry, angling, tennis … and much more. With your accommodation looked after with a complimentary room upgrade, the only thing left is to choose which of our mouth-watering restaurants you wish to try. Sophisticated, elegant, a wine and food connoisseur who likes the very best things in life? Does the idea of buzzy crowds, cocktails and beers, and a menu that pleases all tastes and desires appeal? Then try South Bar & Restaurant. Maybe The Palmer is more to choosing? With its elegant, Art Deco-inspired décor and reassuringly classic menu, no one is ever left wanting.
