Co. Kildare's K Club Hotel & Golf Resort has applied to Kildare County Council for planning permission to build a 16,000 square foot ballroom and new meeting rooms.
According to The Irish Times, in addition to seeking permission to build a ballroom and new meetings rooms, The K Club is also planning to remove a swimming pool, and it is believed that future building plans could include a refurbishment of the resort's golf clubhouse.
New Chief Executive
The new developments at The K Club will be overseen by former Adare Manor general manager Paul Heery, who the resort's new owner, TLC Nursing Home Group operator Michael Fetherston, has appointed as its chief executive.
Heery stepped down as general manager of Co. Limerick's Adare Manor in September of this year.
Losses And Shareholders Deficit
Accounts that were filed this week reveal that The K Club experienced losses of €3.8 million last year and that, prior to its sale, it had a €20.5 million shareholders deficit.
