This surely is an exceptional house! Large rooms, plenty of space to sit and relax. Very well equipped kitchen to make your meals if you wish. Renovation is done with good taste and honoring the old house. Nice back garden too. Parking was easy, lots of parking slots just outside the house. We went to see the bog and had a nice walk there (The Abbeyleix Bog Project).

Roundwood House is truly exceptional, a gorgeous historic property that is beautifully maintained and decorated with impeccable taste. From the moment you step inside, you feel as though you’ve been transported back in time. What truly elevates the experience is the warmth and graciousness of Hannah and Paddy, who welcomed us into their estate with genuine kindness and hospitality. Their passion for the house and its history shines through in every detail. The food surpassed all expectations, every dish was carefully prepared, delicious, and memorable. The grounds are breathtaking and an absolute pleasure to wander; calm, quiet, and full of charm at every turn. It is the perfect place to disconnect, relax, and soak in a truly magical atmosphere. We left already dreaming of our return and without a doubt we will be back again.

10/10. A full home in a quiet rural area. We are rural Australians and this was our favourite spot of our whole trip. Felt like you were staying at your families house. Great pub down the road. Wish we stayed longer!
