The K Club has launched a series of family Breaks including . a Two Night Easter Break (from €290pps) includes two night’s bed and breakfast in a Superior Room and a fou
r course evening meal on one evening in The River Room Restaurant. Interconnecting bedrooms rooms are available in Deluxe Room and Hotel Suite room categories (from €160 bed and breakfast per night) and cots and baby facilities are available for parents staying with small children. Each family has complimentary access to the health club with its swimming pool, gymnasium, sauna, steam room and outdoor hot tub.
This package also includes the choice of three great, family activities at nearby tourism attractions. Guests can choose to visit Russborough House and Parklands, a stunning Palladian Mansion overlooking the Blessington Lakes at the foot of the Wicklow Mountains, or visit the Irish National Stud, just outside Kildare Town. Alternatively you could visit The Kildare Maze, the largest hedge maze in Leinster and see if you can navigate your way through this extraordinary leafy gem! The visit to Russborough includes either a horse and carriage journey or the chance to watch the daily Sheepdog Demonstrations which are taking place on the grounds over Easter (2.15pm each day). The Irish National Stud trip is a fantastic experience, a unique attraction of outstanding natural beauty that is home to some of the most magnificent horses and now at, this time of year, their new born foals! Visitors can see the horses and the new foals up close and even get to visit the foaling unit, visit the Japanese Gardens or St. Fiachra’s Gardens as part of their trip, a memorable trip for all ages for sure!
The Kids Club, ‘K Cubs’ has lots of exciting activities in store to keep your little ones entertained during their stay. K Cubs opens daily from 11am to 9pm over Easter and runs activities such as kiddies discos, face painting, arts and crafts, nature walks and there is even a playground in the Victorian Walled Garden. An Easter egg hunt will take place on the grounds, while the Easter Bunny himself will visit the children on Easter Sunday. Children can enjoy their own little dinner party in the evenings and a nightly children’s’ movie will be shown in a supervised area so that the adults can enjoy some baby free time and dine by themselves if they so wish. That said, if you all want to eat together, there are a number of restaurants to choose from for families to dine in offering both fine dining and informal cuisine.
Golf fans are very well catered for at The K Club which famously hosted the Ryder Cup in 2006 as well as several European Opens. This summer the resort will stage the 2016 Dubai Duty Free Irish Open (May 19-22). There are two championship golf courses at the resort, The Palmer Ryder Cup Course and The Smurfit Course both offering distinctly different golfing experiences. If you feel your game would benefit from a few pro tips, golf clinics with the resident Golf Professional will be held each day at 12 pm.
