A weekend of delight

Rented the Roost as we were going to a wedding at Goodnestone Park which is only 10minutes away by car so ideal if you are attending a function there. The Roost was really well equipped with a lovely welcoming host. Welcome provisions were provided which was a really nice touch. We were blessed with hot sunny weather so the lovely courtyard garden was put to good use. Would highly recommend this property

The best holiday rental ever!!!

We stayed at the Roost for 2 months and could not have asked for a better place to spend our time in the UK. Carys and Tim were the greatest hosts and made us feel at completely at home. We loved our chats with Carys and Tim who are kind, warm and really the most perfect hosts. The Roost has everything we needed for a longer stay. We were warm and cozy and loved waking up on the farm! We loved the chickens, and looking out over the trees from the bedroom. We found it easy to get to Canterbury and loved the countryside strolls into Wingham! We could not recommend the Roost more. It has undoubtably been our favourite holiday stay and we will return again and again! The Roost is a great experience with the loviest hosts… we miss it all already!

Lovely little place

Excellent. Hosts Carys and Tim were fantastic and couldn't do enough to help you. Breakfast box was amazing. The Roost was extremely well equipped with everything needed. Good to leave the car behind and use the bus - the stop was just a short walk away and the service ran very regularly. Thoroughly recommend.

Great location for seeing Canterbury and the sights

We were made to feel very welcome at The Roost, it was very clean and fully equipped with everything you could possibly need for your stay. Located in quiet countryside just outside Canterbury, it was the ideal location to see the city and the seaside. It was lovely to wake up and see the hens outside. Our hosts were lovely and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Stunning compact stylish retreat

From arrival to departure our hosts were simply lovely. The Roost is sparkling clean and yet cosy and welcoming with top notch furniture and all that you could need. Especially comfy bed! Fresh eggs from the resident hens were a lovely addition to food already provided We visited Wingham Animal Park for our first day, a perfect place for a few hours and possibly longer if you are meeting up with relatives and small children as there are plenty of activities and parks as well as a whole host of animals and a nice cafe. Much more reasonable than Howletts if you just want a few hours out. We had a trip into Canterbury to visit the many shops, the usual plus the unusual ! On Sunday we visited the cathedral. A few local walks added to a very relaxing away from it all stay.

My perfect stay at the Roost

I stayed at the Roost for 6 months over the Winter as a short term let and it was perfect! It had everything I needed. It was light, open and cosy. It had a sweet private courtyard area to sit, a carpark space just outside, enough storage space and a smart TV. It was in a lovely quiet area, with access to some beautiful walks in the countryside. The hosts were very friendly and made sure I was well looked after. They also were very generous with free eggs and vegetables from their farm.
