Loved our stay so much! A beautiful historic house located in gorgeous surroundings. My partner and I really enjoyed our stay in Room 2. Very spacious with window looking out over front of property. It is an old building so there are creaky stairs and a few cracks here and there but it is a fabulous place to stay. There are two shared bathrooms which were always clean. Very quiet at night. Owners are lovely and very accommodating. We would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely brilliant few days spent at Roosecote Guest House. Mel and Stuart were great hosts and welcomed us before getting out of the car. Rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. Mel’s breakfasts are amazing and the scrambled eggs went down a treat with our lot. Thank you for an amazing few days with you. Look forward to our next stay with you. Angela & family

I had a very pleasant pleasant family stay at this place. The owners were extremely polite and helpful. The whole property should be an example for cleanness. Another thing is that prices are very reasonable, especially these days when some places charge ludicrous amount of money. Strongly recommended.
