The atmosphere is serene and the house is filled with wonderful paintings and art – the work of your hosts John and Carol. Built in 1730 as an Inn, it enjoys delightful rural views and superb walks over Wimbledon Common and is so peaceful and tranquil it's hard to believe you are just a few minutes from the centre of Wimbledon with its fashionable shops and restaurants and of course so close to the rest of London too. There are two artists' studios on the first floor where new work is always in progress.
The furnishings are a mix of antique and bespoke pieces and the wood floors are covered with rugs. From the sitting room French doors open onto the secluded garden which is filled with flowers and a pond and there is a delightful octagonal summer house where B&B guests can enjoy a delicious breakfast.
The B&B accommodation bedroom which overlooks the rear garden is simple and extremely comfortable, with fine bed linen, lots of books and a beautiful en suite bathroom. On arrival in Wimbledon you will be served tea and home made cakes or biscuits whilst you begin to appreciate the delights of this unique home so conveniently placed for the many delights of London.
