Stayed at the K Club for a week. It was a 5 STAR experience. Comparable to a top tier Four Seasons hotel in the US. Rooms, restaurants, service, spa and golf was first class all the way. Booked the trip with the intention to play golf. Played 4 rounds on both courses. Had a caddy named Ian who was fantastic, knows the courses to perfection. Highly recommend getting a caddy and having him on your bag. Planning to return on an annual basis.

We booked this trip as a last minute two night getaway and I have to say it didn’t disappoint! Upon arrival staff couldn’t be more welcoming and helpful. Taking our bags and assisting in anyway they could, you really get the 5 star guest treatment. We received an upgrade to our room which was a lovely surprise, the suite was gorgeous! We used the spa facilities during our stay and all facilities and amenities are top class. We dined in the Henry and Palmer restaurants, and the food was excellent. We enjoyed breakfast on our last morning and were really pretty late so thought we wouldn’t make it. Tony, the guest relations manager, said no problem, head straight in and we got a fabulous freshly made brekkie with no rush to leave or vacate the breakfast room even thought we were one of the last guests to arrive in, which was nice. Overall our stay was brilliant and we will definitely be returning ☺️

Beautiful grounds but the service in the Club dining was most disappointing. Our foursome waited with two other couples for 10 min waiting for a seat. Finally the bartender said he wasn't expecting us and could not accommodate us. We finally sat at the bar which was overflowing with dirty glassware and waited ten min for a beer. We never got a seat. One foursome in the dinning room said that their waiter went on break while they were dining. Others on the property said that they do not pay well. Bought 400euros of items only not to be able to get the receipt for the VAT. The scenery and caddies were lovely. Will choose to stay at Mt Juliet or other location next time.

Loved everything!!! It’s like staying in an art museum. Beautiful grounds that you can explore on foot or by complimentary bicycle. The meals in their restaurants were fantastic. We signed up for falconry…amazing!!! Tom is so knowledgeable and funny. The 5 birds he brought were wonderful. We were able to hold and pet them. Definitely recommend!

We came to stay in the K club just for one night to celebrate a special occasion, and the only bad thing about our stay was that it wasn’t longer. Right from the beginning when we met the lovely concierge Caesar (like the salad 😂) we settled into a relaxing well needed break. Nothing was too much to ask for, our room was overlooking the pond on the grounds with a lovely view. The bed was huge, the bathroom had a shower and a huge bath which I was able to lie down in fully (I’m 5ft 2). The grounds of the hotel are stunning. They offer a shuttle service to the 2 restaurants on the golf courses but we decided to walk through them to visit the south bank restaurant for dinner, we had a lovely stroll back through a woodland with beautiful lighting after a gorgeous dinner, so romantic. Breakfast was excellent, loads of choice and made to order so everything was fresh. The cocktail bar and terrace I would highly recommend. We will 100% be back, it’s now firmly my favourite hotel to visit.
