We stayed for roughly two months, and our stay was excellent. We got the opportunity to stay in all three rooms, which were all very clean. Beds all comfy, clean... read more towels, fridge, microwave, tea and coffee and a tv. The bathroom being my favourite part because of the walk in shower. Plenty of spaces to park either on the driveway or along the very quiet road.
Sainsburys a 5 minute drive, as well as a weatherspoons. High street being the same distance has plenty of restaurants and take aways.
Janet and Angus were very welcoming and polite. We were up too early for breakfast, so Janet would make us sandwiches instead. Which I thought was very kind of her.
We have more work to do around the area, so we will definitely be returning! 🙂 More

We stayed 3 nights in a spacious, well-equipped twin bedroom with great views into the beautiful garden.
The place has a shared bathroom, but with only three rooms this... read more was no problem at all, and the bathroom was large and modern. Our room had everything we needed, we especially appreciated the little sink and the large fridge with freezer department. From our bedroom window we could watch numerous animals visiting the garden, including foxes and even parrots. Oh, and the WiFi was good... 😉
Janet and Angus are very friendly hosts who made us feel very welcome, which deserves extra praise since they had just become grandparents and had a lot to care about. Breakfast was delicious and more than we could ever have wished for.
(If anything at all was to "criticize" it would be the following: for our personal taste the beds were a bit too soft, and our room smelt too intense of room scent. No points taken off for this, as we didn't discuss this in advance or tried to change it.)

I arrived mid afternoon having travelled from Leeds by train I was immediately impressed by Owlets it was all that I expected and more. Janet and Angus were very kind... read more and Janet showed me my room which was both clean and comfortable the bathroom was top quality especially the shower which was a real experience. Angus cooked me a superb full English breakfast that kept me going until well past lunchtime.
Both Janet and Angus were very easy to talk too and I really enjoyed my visit I would certainly recommend Owlets to anyone who is staying in the area.Although I did not travel very far myself it is very convenient for connections to Croydon and central London and I will certainly return to the Owlets should the need arise.
Thank you for making my visit such a good experience. More

We were looking for somewhere to stay to attend a friends garden party. Hotels nearby were expensive and would also require a taxi. Then looking at Google maps, Owlets B&B... read more appeared within walking distance of our friends place. A lovely couple running it, comfortable beds, a great bathroom and a lovely breakfast the following morning. And at a great price too. A hidden gem in south London! More

I recently spent five nights at Owlets and couldn't fault it for my purposes. It was spotlessly clean, well maintained, and with with lots of sensitive attention to detail in... read more the room I used. Everything was done to make my stay comfortable (they instantly bought in a speciality tea for me, for example). It's a shared bathroom, but as impeccably clean as the whole house, and has a fabulous shower. The bed - which can be a real bone of contention - was incredibly comfortable. I welcomed the efficiency with which Angus served exactly what I wanted for breakfast, and at exactly the time I preferred it - very useful if you are working to a timetable.
It is a quiet and leafy location, but close to key roads, and the owners couldn't be more helpful. Highly recommended if you need to be in that area of London. More
