| Kilkea Castle Hotel - Castledermot/Kildare |
| |
| Kilkea Castle is Ireland's pre-eminent castle hotel and is also a golf club. It is conveniently less than an hour's drive from Dublin. The castle's magnificent rose gardens and renovated rooms provide a unique setting for your holiday, wedding or business conference. Castledermot is a small town in South Kildare with a population of approximately 800. The name of Castle Redmond originated in an early Christian monastic settlement of about 500A.D. Castledermot once held a 13th century Franciscan Friary, which was later plundered by Robert Bruce in 1317. Only the walls of the church of the friary remain. |

The Golf course measuring 6,100 metres off the championship tee has been developed in this magnificent setting, beneath the shadows of a Twelfth Century Castle. It allows the splendour of the Castle to be viewed from every fairway. In constructing the course, the designers have cleverly used the river Greese as a natural hazard flowing through the grounds of the Castle. You will encounter the river at almost every hole. Two lakes have also been included in the course design, adding to the overall difficulty of the challenge.
The hotel has two floodlit hard surface tennis courts. There is an on-site fully equipped leisure centre with an indoor heated swimming pool, saunas, jacuzzi, steam room and gym. A masseuse and beautician are available on request. Tennis and the centre is complimentary for residents.
