A boutique Chiswick escape with your own private pool

Tucked away within a beautifully mature private garden on a quiet, tree-lined residential street in Chiswick, The Poolhouse is a self-contained garden studio finished to an exceptional boutique standard. Designed and styled with real care and personality, this adults-only retreat offers two guests an experience that sits firmly between a luxury city hotel and the comfort of a private home — with the rare addition of your very own outdoor swimming pool.

Set in one of west London`s most sought-after neighbourhoods, The Poolhouse places guests within easy reach of Chiswick`s independent cafés, riverside walks, and excellent transport links into central London, while remaining a peaceful and private sanctuary the moment you step through the garden gate. Whether you are visiting for a city break, a long weekend away, or simply looking for somewhere truly special to unwind, this is a property that goes well beyond the ordinary.

A home to relax and unwind
From the moment you arrive along the stepped wooden decking path — bordered by mature plants and flowering shrubs — The Poolhouse makes an impression that the photographs, as good as they are, only begin to convey. The interior is warm, playful, and deeply considered, combining rich ochre and mustard tones with boutique-quality finishes and a series of thoughtful design details that give the space genuine character.

A neon sign reading `Sunshine, Love, Laughter and Fun` glows above the sofabed, gold-framed circular mirrors catch the light across the walls, and a rustic driftwood side table is dressed with a fresh floral arrangement and a welcome jar of sweets on arrival. Every element has been chosen with care — this is not a generic rental; it is a space with soul. After dark, the garden and decking come alive with atmospheric lighting that makes the outdoor area every bit as enjoyable as it is by day, whether you are finishing a meal outside or simply relaxing beside the pool under the evening sky.

The layout
The Poolhouse is a single-storey, open-plan studio arranged across one thoughtfully designed level, with a natural flow between each area.

Living and sleeping area
The heart of the studio is the large open-plan living space, anchored by a generously sized yellow corner sofabed dressed with a luxury mattress, layered cushions in ochre and terracotta tones, and a woven throw. Full-height glazed patio doors run across the width of the space, flooding the interior with natural light and opening directly onto the decked terrace and pool beyond. Room-darkening roller blinds provide excellent privacy and light control when needed. A voice-activated Sky Glass TV, a sound system, and extra pillows and blankets complete the space. A bar unit with bar stools adds a further social element to the living area.

Kitchen
The kitchen is fitted to a high standard with white worktops, an L-shaped layout, a vertical wooden slat feature wall, and a skylight set into the ceiling above, drawing in additional natural light. It is fully equipped for self-catering and includes an induction hob, oven, combi microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, freezer, instant boiling water tap, coffee maker, toaster, and hot water kettle. Cooking basics, dishes and silverware, wine glasses, and kitchen consumables including tea and coffee are all provided.

Shower room
The ensuite shower room is a genuine highlight of the property. It features twin rectangular vessel basins set on a dark vanity unit, paired round black-framed mirrors, and striking botanical-print wallpaper — creating a boutique hotel feel that carries through the whole space. The walk-in shower enclosure is finished with gold mosaic wall tiles and fitted with a black thermostatic shower unit. A heated towel rail and wall-hung toilet complete the room. A curated selection of Aesop toiletries is provided throughout, including shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, body soap, hand wash, hand cream, and hand sanitiser. A hair dryer is also included.

Laundry and changing room
A dedicated changing room — accessed via an internal door from within the studio — houses a stacked washer and dryer, along with a drying rack for clothing. This room connects through directly to the shower room, giving the studio a considered, practical flow that makes longer stays just as comfortable as a short break.

Outdoor space
The studio opens directly onto a generous decked terrace complete with an outdoor dining area, BBQ grill, and barbecue utensils. An outdoor kitchen area with a mini fridge is also available. Guests have exclusive use of the private outdoor pool from April to October. The garden is bordered by mature planting and flowering shrubs, and the entire outdoor area is lit atmospherically in the evenings — making it equally enjoyable after dark. All indoor and outdoor spaces, including the garden, decking, and pool, are for the exclusive use of guests staying in the studio.

Location
The Poolhouse sits on Chatsworth Road, a quiet, tree-lined residential street in Chiswick — one of west London`s most characterful and desirable neighbourhoods, with a strong sense of community and an excellent mix of independent businesses, green space, and river walks.
Chiswick House and Gardens — a stunning Grade I listed 18th-century Palladian villa set within 65 acres of beautifully landscaped parkland — is just a two-minute walk from the property, making it ideal for a morning stroll or a peaceful afternoon escape. Chiswick High Road, with its independent cafés, restaurants, boutique shops, and bars, is within a 15 to 20-minute walk and reflects the area`s vibrant yet relaxed character. The Thames riverside at Strand-on-the-Green, with its historic pubs and scenic river walks, is approximately 20 to 25 minutes on foot.

Getting around is straightforward. Chiswick overground station (Mildmay Line) is just 7 to 8 minutes on foot, with direct services into London Waterloo taking approximately 30 to 35 minutes. Two local bus routes operate from Sutton Court Road, connecting guests to Chiswick High Road and Turnham Green tube station (District line) in approximately 10 minutes. From Turnham Green, guests can reach Hammersmith in around 10 minutes by District line, with onward connections to the Elizabeth line and central London, and Heathrow Airport is accessible in approximately 29 to 30 minutes via the Piccadilly line (services run every 15 to 20 minutes during off-peak hours). By car, Heathrow is approximately 20 to 25 minutes away.
