Already, the resort has been selected as the venue in 2011 of the Solheim Cup, when the best female golfers in Europe will compete against their opposite numbers from the US. It’s a biennial competition that is the female equivalent of the Ryder Cup. For the Killeen Castle project, it’s a huge vote of confidence, before the project is even finished.When this com- petition was held in Sweden in 2003, it attracted over 100,000 spectators, so when the Solheim Cup competition comes to Killeen Castle, it is likely to prove just as popular draw for visitors as the Ryder Cup was at the K Club in September, 2006. The Killeen demesne was the ancestral home of the Plunkett family for close on 600 years; St Oliver Plunkett was a member of this distinguished family. The demesne of Killeen was created in 1181 by explaining why even today, the Killeen estate is much Hugh de Lacy. Sir Christopher Plunkett, deputy Lord larger than its next door neighbour.

    IRELAND & SCOTLAND 2009/10 www.BrendanVacations.com 15th-century Ross Castle overlooks the Lower Lake in Killarney 2 | www.BrendanVacations.com Welcome Dear Traveler, Taking a vacation to Ireland and Britain is exciting! Wouldn’t it be great if you knew someone who has personally been there to guide you though the experience? For over 40 years, Brendan has been helping travelers plan, book and enjoy their special vacation. Whether it’s on your own, with a guide and a group of like-minded travelers, or a combination of the two, we will help you make it the vacation of your dreams. It starts with your reservation. One of our experts will personally handle all the details, make sure you have the information you need, share ‘insider’ destination secrets and answer your questions. When it comes to Ireland and Britain, my father and I know this part of the world intimately (some would say, better than anybody). My father grew up in Dublin, and I have visited many times, plus we’ve both been to England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales on numerous occasions. We have explored it all, from the famous ‘must see’ sights to little out-of-the-way local favorites. When we design our tours, we do so with the same care and thought that we use for our own personal vacations. Britain and, especially, Ireland hold a very special place in our hearts, and we look forward to sharing them with you. “Taking You Personally” is more than our slogan.
