Confirmed Guest
We had a fantastic stay at The Roost. The hosts were welcoming and friendly, offering lots of helpful local knowledge and recommendations. The children loved the use of the pool and the play area, and huge entertainment was had with Arthur, the resident peacock. We would definitely stay again and recommend to others.
