This is our 2nd time. It’s clean, well laid out & beautiful. The bathroom has a huge tub & separate glassed-in shower. The bed is very comfortable. There is a great view of the mountains from all the windows. Laurie gives you six eggs from her chickens. Only drawback is that it’s upstairs. We’ll stay again.

Great stay at The Roost

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at Royston Roost. The suite is tastefully decorated and everything is in pristine condition. The view from our private balcony was beautiful and peaceful. Laurie and Scott were wonderful hosts and always available to answer questions. We loved all their pets and appreciated the free range eggs. We look forward to our next visit!

Very clean and nicely equipped. My only complaint was the small barking dog the owners have downstairs. We heard him at night for small amount and in the morning while I think the owners were away.

Swanky yet cozy

Royston Roost was awesome! We stayed 4 nights and tried to stay 1 extra night but couldn't. It was booked. No surprise there. We were welcomed with fresh eggs from the girls. We also had fresh coffee creamer which was really welcomed, as we arrived quite late and were unable to pick up creamer on our way in. The next morning was saved! There's a lot to do and see and we still didn’t see everything we wanted. I guess we'll just have to come back again!😉

Very cute accommodation!!

We’ve stayed here before and love how peaceful the area is. Lovely house and we enjoy being greeted by the chickens. Royston is very close to Cumberland, Comox and Courtney and is a beautiful area.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the roost. The thematic property is comfortable and welcoming. The owners have designed the loft style property with all of the amenities that you would expect at home. I look forward to going back.

Royston Condo

We enjoyed this lovely condo for 4 nights. It rates even higher than 5 stars! Everything about it was wonderful! Spotless, great linens, kitchen stocked with basics like coffee,cream,sugar,etc. easy check in, owner lives below in the house so is readily available if needed. One slight downside- stairs going up to the suite, some may find them difficult. But a true gem! Thank you Scott and Laurie!

Royston Roost

Property was extremely well maintained and the unit was impeccably neat and tidy. Stairs into the unit could be difficult for anyone with mobility issues. All queries were answered in a spontaneous fashion. The eggs in the fridge, owners chickens, were a nice touch. We would go back again without hesitation.

Wonderful getaway

The room at Royston Roost is spotlessly clean and very well equipped with everything you might need for your perfect getaway. It is in a quiet neighbourhood but still close to towns such as Cumberland or Courteney. The owner is very friendly and helpful - we were even treated to some fresh eggs from their free ranging hens. Thanks to Laurie and Scott for providing this wonderful home away from home.

Such a cute unit in a peaceful setting!!

We’ve stayed at this VRBO before and liked it so much we decided to stay again. The unit is tastefully decorated, the bathroom is stunning and there is a perfect sized kitchen. The fridge was stocked with fresh eggs and real cream to have with your coffee. A real plus is having parking right outside your door and being greeted by chickens and the most adorable small dogs you just have to say hello to. The Lindt chocolate was a real treat and we highly recommend staying at Scott and Laurie’s place.

Lovely quiet acreage close to several trails

The hosts arm welcoming and the property is well maintained. The room looks out on several quiet acreages with budding green trees and a mountain range in the distance. I enjoyed walking on several trails in the area. Eggs in the fridge from the hosts' chickens were a nice treat. The bathroom and bed were comfortable and I like being able to control my own heating. One suggestion would be to remove describing the unit as having a dining room. The kitchenette is small and I ended up eating in the living room/bedroom. Other than that detail, I enjoyed my stay and the location worked out well for me.

Great expectations and wonderful experience.

We really enjoyed our stay at this property, starting with the fresh eggs donated by our admirable owners. It’s a well designed and furnished property with mountain views from its balcony. In addition to the Royston pub, coffee house and beach, the area is lovely with lots of things to do.

Lovely, quiet getaway!

The property was easy to find, the communications with the hosts was quick and easy, too! The accommodations were wonderful, and felt very welcoming! The whole place was impeccably clean, with sanitizer and cleaner out for when we needed! There were fresh eggs from their chickens and fresh cream for coffee and all the things we might need for a quick brekkie! If we ever want to hang out in the Comox valley again, we will be back!
