Our Reviews
-
This is a little gem!! A beautiful house set in a very quiet area, just what I needed. On arrival I was greeted by the owners, who were lovely people, and shown to my room. After I had settled I decided to go for a walk to get a few nibbles etc. for my stay. The owner was very helpful with instructions. There is a Sainsburys and several eateries all with 10-15 minutes walk. South Croydon is also only 15 minutes on the train to London, so very convenient if you'd like to site-see or are on a business trip.
The room (including the bed) was very comfortable and clean with everything I needed for an enjoyable stay and more. If you're worried about the shared bathroom, don't be. It was brand new, very plush and extremely clean. As someone who is quite OCD at times (or so my Husband would have you believe), I was more than happy here.
Breakfast was at the family kitchen table looking over the garden and was equally as lovely as the rest of my stay. I was asked the night before what I’d like, cereal, full English, toast, just name it I could have it. I opted for poached eggs on toast, a real treat and it was served with tea/coffee and fruit juice. Most enjoyable.
This little hidden B&B is extremely good value for money. I shall be returning in the future.
Thank you!
Tip: Book direct, as they only advertise one room on Expedia and the rates are the same.

- We were warmly welcomed by Janet and her husband. It lacked nothing! The house is charming, very clean and neat. A great breakfast (watch out for the pounds!). Even the garden is full of life : countless birds, little foxes, top!
Not so far from London and you can make beautiful excursions in the region.
It was a great stay!
Do not hesitate to stay there 🙂 - We stayed here after visiting Hampton court flower show. We did not want to stay near the show as we wanted somewhere quiet. Owlets fitted the bill nicely. Lovely room, bathroom and breakfast all excellent. I can highly recommend More
- We had a very welcoming stay at Owlets. The rooms were extremely comfortable and very clean. The cooked breakfast was lovely(thank you) it made a pleasant change to eat breakfast and watch the wildlife in the garden. Very relaxing. Janet and Angus are perfect hosts
- Janet and Angus are excellent hosts, very welcoming. Excellent facilities in the rooms. The bed was very comfortable, I had an excellent nights sleep. Breakfast was wonderful. Fantastic shower and bathroom. Would highly recommend.
- What can I say? This is the best bed and breakfast place we have ever stayed in. Both Janet and Angus, are truly charming and welcoming hosts. I stayed with my family at the property in July for the weekend, as we were attending a wedding nearby. We had family also with us visiting from Canada. There is nothing Janet and Angus would not do for us. The bedrooms are beautifully maintained, and everything you could possibly need in the. The bathroom was lovely and we loved the very modern shower. It had a spa touch to it. The Garden is so beautiful , and very peaceful to relax. The breakfast was so yummy, and there is plenty of choice from poached eggs to an excellent full cooked English breakfast. We had so much fun staying here and having wonderful hosts taking care of us was the icing on the cake. I would recommend anyone to stay in this truly unique, tranquil and amazing bed and breakfast - you really will feel at home. Thank you so much Janet and Angus , a lovely couple. We will no doubt come again. God bless you both.
