The Roost at Coln is a stylish, romantic retreat for couples and their dog, a stone’s throw from a well-renowned village pub and café. Full of character, it is a homely country cottage where you can relax in the secret garden and cosy up in front of the wood-burning stove. Two king-size bedrooms each have their own personality and the freestanding bath is a spa-like retreat for a luxurious soak. This is a charming hideaway where you are immersed in the Cotswold countryside. Spend days out at Cotswold Water Park, visiting Cirencester and Burford, or enjoying the walks from your front door around Coln St Aldwyns.

No logs supplied and not told where to get them which was essential as the owners had control of the heating and kept turning it off. Unacceptable in winter when paying a good rent. Garden a mess. Second bedroom needs a new bed as you have to climb into it from the bottom . Only fit for children .

The Roost is a beautifully decorated cottage situated in a fantastic village. The cottage has everything we needed for a very comfortable stay, plus there is a great pub just down the road, a lovely little shop and cafe just up the hill and a wonderful playground to entertain the children. Highly recommend!



Great Location for the pub!

Great location with lovely walks & The New Inn is a great pub.The Roost is a beautiful cottage with a good layout. We were surprised there was no welcome hamper although milk, coffee & tea was provided. The sitting room seating was not great for 4 adults & the 9 tog duvet was far too hot for summer weather. We couldn’t find any other bedding, maybe a sheet and blanket would be better.
We would stay again, we love Coln and the location is great. I thought it would be helpful to highlight our observations for feedback.

It was a wonderful place to stay. I will book again.
The freezer was full of frost and needs to be defrosted.

We stayed at The Roost over the Easter weekend and booked only 3-4 weeks in advance.

The booking process was seamless and fully automated and the information provided was excellent.

The house was warm and welcoming and the property team/owner had thought of every little thing to get out stay under way, including a welcome pack with milk, tea and coffee and logs for the fire.

The property was spotless and provided everything we needed and more and so many beautiful little touches/details/decor. A well cared for home.

The village of Coln was a perfect base, we are a family of 4 with 6 year olds, the local pub is just next door and all major amenities are just a short drive.

We look forward to visiting again and for longer.

Thanks Michelle and the property team.

Incredible place in a beautiful part of England. The house was fully stocked with everything you need. It a pretty relaxed part of the Cotswolds.
