K Club ( Palmer )
This is big , glamorous parkland golf . Lakes , streams , rivers , ancient trees , lazy rhythm … and lots and lots of space . The Palmer course at the K Club carries an enormous reputation for its design pedigree ( Arnold Palmer ) and for the events it has hosted ( Ryder Cup and European Opens ). It is no surprise that it promises all the frills and thrills you could ask for . The River Liffey squeezes some holes but many other water features abound on this gently rolling Kildare landscape . Despite such volumes of water this is a relaxing round of golf with generous fairways and big greens . You probably won ’ t even mind depositing a ball in the Liffey on the par five 16th … countless others have done the very same . It is not a tough course but be sure to choose your tees wisely . The middle White tees measure 6,815 yards ; the forward Green tees measure 6,240 yards .
