FAQs


Got a question? You might find the answer here, if not please get in touch.

When can we check in?

After 15:00. We’ll send you an email confirming arrival information – directions, how to get into the site, how to get into your cabin, wifi details, parking instructions and more. If you need any additional information please contact us.

When do we have to check out by?

Check out is by 11:00. Please make sure you’ve got all your belongings and have properly disposed of any rubbish/recycling in the bins. Please lock up your cabin, ensuring the heater is off, and return your key to the key safe on your cabin.

Will we have to share kitchens or shower rooms?

Not unless you want to! In light of recent events we have changed our set up so all cabins have allocated kitchens and shower rooms. No sharing. Any exclusive hire bookings can use the Roost as they wish, opening up the kitchens etc.

Where are the kitchens and shower rooms in relation to the cabins?

Our ‘original’ cabins have separate allocated kitchens and shower rooms. These are a few steps away.

Our new cabin, Arosfa, has an ensuite and kitchenette. Its a little less roomy as a result.

How many people does each cabin sleep?

Each cabin has a small double (4ft) bunk bed.

The three original cabins sleep a maximum of two adults and two children (under 14). A futon mattress is available on request.

The ensuite cabin sleeps a maximum of two adults and one child.

We do not allow more than two adults (and up to two children) in a cabin. For fire safety reasons, we need to know how many people are on site prior to arrival.

Do you have any rules?

Yes, just a few little ones that are about being considerate to guests and neighbours. Click here to view.

We don’t currently but plan to offer breakfast boxes and packed lunches in the future. We are also looking at doing curry/BBQ nights.

Can I bring my dog?
