    “We were the very first guests to stay in The Roost which is set in quiet rural Devon with easy access to the coast.”

    The property is nicely decorated, fully equipped, comfortable and lovely and warm (November). Just right for a couple, not too big and not too small. Friendly hosts. Thoroughly recommended.
