We stayed at this B&B as a family of 3 for over a week in July. The location was perfect for us (near a Central line underground station, peaceful neighbourhood, lots of shops and parks nearby. Walpole park is worth a visit!), and the house & garden were lovely. Our room, The Sanctuary, along with its bathroom was clean and well-kept. It was a bit on the small side (we had quite heavy baggage), but since we spent so much time outside the room, that wasn't much of a problem.

The kitchen was clean as well and very cosy, and we enjoyed our help-yourself breakfasts in the morning. Coffee was definitely better than back home! Beep, the dog, was a major attraction to our son and friendly towards us all.

We felt welcome there, and the owner was nice and even allowed us to pay later, when we hadn't managed to withdraw any cash from local ATMs on our arrival. Our own experience was highly positive. We feel that much of negative feedback here could have been avoided by visitors reading the Terms & Conditions on the place's homepage (it states very clearly that you must pay on arrival and that there is an extra charge for paying with credit card) and bearing in mind that B&B's are not hotels.

Thank you, Rosa! If we get a chance to travel back to London, we're very likely to stay here again.

Where do I start.. Once greeted ("hello come and sign in..with your credit card") we were dragged into the kitchen for payment.. Was ment to have had a family member pay for us as a present!! But no she had a load of paper out with previous emails on it stating a 30% booking fee/deposit after running off with the credit card and not allowing me to go and see what was going on with my card.. Prob because of the clutter in the room (health and safety issue) after she came back she supprised us with a charge for using the card!! Yes just what we needed!! The room.. It was clean, beds wasn't made the whole time we were there, tea tasted like camels foreskin, coffee was like elephant ring piece!! Went to have a shower and the lime scale in the shower head was over powering, at one point I thought it was going to block up the holes that let the water out of!! Wasn't such a private bath room ether with no lock on the door to keep it private!! Went to sleep with the window rattling and the door shaking, misses thought someone was trying to get in our room it was that bad... As we then left at the end of our stay the owner didn't ask how our trip was and just didn't care!! out of 10 I would rate it -8...... Cheers

Not at all impressed - emphasise was on getting payment as soon as possible. The proprieter was cold and disinterested in our welfare. Stayed there for five nights and not once did anyone actually clean the room or empty the bins. Even left the door open one day and still nothing done in the room. TV reception was dreadful and cleanliness was poor. The only good thing was it was good value for a place in London - so I guess you get what you pay for - rubbish! I felt we were intruding on someones home - and they put up with us just to earn some extra cash - very unwelcoming place.

Very pleasant proprietor, non invasive and very helpful in every way. The art forms on display in almost every room were most impressive and lovely to wake up to. Highly recommend.
