It was lovely and homely. My time was more than enjoyable and the hosts went above and beyond to make my stay exceptional. The location was wonderful and I was provided with everything I’d need. Would book again in a heartbeat.

We have simple rooms in a clean vegetarian house in one of London's premier green belts. Available for female guests only. Minimum stay of 4 nights. It is tucked away from the traffic. The Dulwich area has been described as country living in a city. Nearby, you have access to free tennis courts, but you need to book timings. You may share facilities - living room with smart TV, modern kitchen with microwave and gas cooking, washing machine, and a dish washer. A large collection of music and books. A garden sit out in front and the rear. Excellent public transport. The rail station is a few minutes away by walk, and it takes less than 15 minutes to reach London Victoria - a transport hub. 24 hr bus service from Central London. Free parking in the area. A vegetarian abode. We have 2 friendly cats. Check out time is adjustable by mutual arrangement. If there is no forward booking you may check out until 18:00 hrs at no extra charge.
I've been working in the hospitality business for years, and have been renting my apartments in the UK and overseas. I am an Administrator for an IT related business. My interests are travelling, music and watching films.
This is a leafy district, with parks, gardens and cinemas around. Dulwich Village has the oldest Picture Gallery in the UK. There are several cafes and restaurants in the Dulwich belt. You have access to tennis courts, swimming and gyms. Close by is Crystal Palace - one of London's highest tables.
