Lovely cottage in a great location with amazing pub & walks. Coln is a lovely village and we have stayed in it a number of times. Unfortunately The Roost needs a bit of TLC as it’s starting to look tired in places……we had problems with the heating, the vacuum was not working so we unblocked it, we couldn’t use the freezer as it needs defrosting and the hard floors were dirty. There were no instructions for the rubbish & recycling. Some of the soft furnishings are also badly marked and we had to mend two of the Roman blinds. These are all things which could be easily sorted and would have made our stay more
comfortable.

This was our 3rd stay at The Roost and we simply love it. The cottage is super sweet and cosy and was perfectly clean. The Beds are very comfortable too - we love how quiet the village is at night with just the sound of the owls hooting but still with the local store and pub just on your doorstep so you don't feel completely isolated. Love staying here. Thank you.

Well-located and cosy for a winter break. Great pub and walks nearby. Well-stocked. No major issues though oven needs cleaning and fridge defrosting! Would definitely stay again.

We absolutely loved The Roost. The house was in a perfect condition, very clean and check in was easy. Loved the bathtub the most. You will find all necessary equipment/utensils in the kitchen, making it a perfect place for a long stay.

100% recommended!
