The property is situated in the small hamlet of Hom Green, 2 miles south of Ross-on-Wye in the Wye Valley. The Roost has one double and one single bedroom (with an additional pull out bed for a fourth person). The combined kitchen lounge area was once a former artists studio so it has impressive double height vaulted ceilings which is bright, light and spacious and captures the afternoon sun. From the lounge you can exit through the double doors onto your own private patio. Croft Cottage is the home of the award winning Foxtail Gin so you can recharge your batteries and relax on the patio with a G&T or a bottle of rose wine, made from grapes grown in the garden vineyard. The property is geared towards welcoming and enjoying all local wildlife. So, along with the free ranging pet runner ducks, 2 rescue cats and the crazy spaniel called Eric, you will see the resident (wild) pheasants and a family of (wild) moorhens all of which call Croft cottage home! Our previous guests have clocked up seeing 28 different bird species in the garden so far. Unfortunately, we can only accommodate children over 12 years old in the roost. For larger groups, groups with children and dogs you can combine the roost with our other holiday cottage just across the road at The Old Forge, which sleeps a further 6 people. www.airbnb.com/h/oldforgehomgreen The Roost is an ideal base to explore the Wye Valley (and the river Wye).

Other things to note There are 2 steps between the bedrooms and the bathroom / lounge level to be aware of (a trip hazard) so be careful especially if you need the loo in the night! For 3 guests the beds will be made up as one double and one single unless advised otherwise. For 4 guests the beds will be made up as one double and 2 singles (as a cosy twin). There is parking on the driveway for a maximum of 2 guests cars. A cocker spaniel called Eric lives at the property and roams around the front garden on occasion.
