Me, my sister and our elderly dog have spent the May bank holiday weekend at the Forge, which is one of two self catering accommodation options at Roundwood House. We had a seriously pleasant time there. We spent our days hiking in the Slieve Bloom mountains, and our evenings staring contentedly into the peat fueled stove in the Forge. Heaven.... More

My husband, my 6 month old son and 4 friends stayed in Roundwood for a two night weekend break and it was fabulous. I cannot recommend this place enough. Hannah, Paddy and their two beautiful daughters Amelie and Lucy are wonderful hosts. This house has so much history and character and it has been lovingly and authentically maintained. Each of...

The property of Roundwood House was rented out overnight from a Saturday to a Sunday for our company summer BBQ. My partner and I decided to go down the night before to stay over, have dinner and relax before the fun started. I hadn't known what to expect, so was bowled over with the welcome given by Hannah and Paddy.... More

I, my partner and baby daughter stayed at Hannah and Paddy's place over 2 nights at Valentines. I loved the whole idea of having no television and just unwinding for 2 days which we did. The house is set in lovely grounds and as we drove in there were all sorts of ducks and pets to greet us. It is... More

Four years ago, my husband and I got married at Roundwood, when Frank and Rosemary were looking after guests. Now, four years on, with Paddy and Hannah, the next generation are looking after things, and it was as perfect as ever. Romantic, relaxed - with INCREDIBLE food, old world comfort, crackling fires and country walks. Dinner in the formal dining... More

Myself and my Girlfriend wanted to do some walking in Slieve Bloom, so we required a base in the area, as we didn't fancy the drive up and back from Dublin for both days. I had looked at Roundwood house on trip advisor before and thought it would do the Job. On checking out their website, I descovered they have... More

We arrived on Friday evening in late January and Hannah welcomed us with tea and flap-jacks in front of the drawing-room fire. We were the only residents that night and Paddy cooked a beautiful meal in what was effectively a private dining room for two with a wood fire. There is no menu and each course was a wonderful surprise... More

I almost don't want to review or rate Roundwood House as I want to keep it all to myself but that's just selfish when it's a business. Paddy and Hannah do everything in their power to make you feel welcome. Myself and a group of friends stayed around New Year for our own celebration and from the moment we arrived... More

Happened on Roundwood when we were suddenly unable to find a place to stay on our way towards Dublin. Not knowing a bit about it, we requested "no dinner" and expected to find something suitable in the area. When we arrived, we found the house, grounds and owners to be absolutely lovely. After some discussion about possible places to eat... More

My husband and I spent one night - B&B and dinner - in Roundwood House to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Roundwood House is a great antidote to impersonal sprawling hotels and more like visiting friends in old worldly elegant surroundings. Antiques and curiosities are everywhere but the house is not slick or highly polished, rather it has a charming lived-in... More
