A home away from home

We stayed in this place for 3 nights and 4 days. We have a wonderful stay, the place is spectacular, very clean from towels to bedsheets. The kitchen is complete and the utensils are very clean. The surroundings is quiet and peaceful, if you love nature then this is the right place for you. There's loads of walking trails. We also enjoyed the pool. Highly recommended. The hosts is mindful and the communication was good. Satisfied guests.. Dopeno family❤️

A beautiful property!

This place was just great for our family getaway. The location is idyllic, with the most amazing countryside views and set in a vast garden. The house is modern, quirky and spacious. The kitchen is relatively small, but there is a large fridge/freezer in the hall in addition to the small one in the kitchen, so perfectly adequate. The swimming pool is absolutely wonderful. The huge windows overlook the stunning view. The pool rota is a great idea - we had plenty of time with the pool all to ourselves. Bliss! We're hoping to come back and book Woodside Cottage, too. Thank you, Izzy!

Lovely property ideally located

The round house was great for us - we really appreciated multiple bathrooms, a secluded adult bedroom downstairs, and a spacious living area with nice touches like blankets to make it feel cosy. The kitchen is small, but the extra larger fridge and freezer in the hall made it suitable for a longer stay; on holiday we only cook simple things, so didn't need a big cooking area. We found the location perfect for reaching lots of places easily, and had a fab few days there.

About the host

Hosted by Isobel James

The owners of The Round House purchased the original Woodside House way back in 1979, renovating their own house, adding an indoor heated swimming pool before embarking on The Round House in 1994. As an architect, the owner was able to fulfil his dreams of creating a modern house with every comfort. The same attention to detail went in to landscaping the 9 acres of gardens - you will find plenty of mature trees and bushes which attract some amazing bird life.

Why they chose this property

The rural, peaceful location combined with the proximity of local towns Bakewell (4 miles) and Matlock (5 miles) make it the ideal spot in which to explore The Peak District.

What makes this property unique

With a large, well-heated indoor swimming pool and 9 acres of mature gardens you will find everything that you need for a great holiday on site. Excellent supermarkets and independent retailers nearby and just a short distance to Chatsworth House.
