Jane is a wonderful host who made me feel at home as soon as I stepped into her place. I had complete privacy. A great experience indeed!
January 2012Jane is such a nice host that takes care of everything. She is sweet, helpful and extremely caring. The garden is lovely but unfortunately we could not enjoy it much due to UK winter's weather. My girlfriend loves the cats. I love the cooking stuffs in the kitchen and the guitar in the living room as well. Everything was perfect. We really enjoyed our stay there. Highly recommended! A+++++ Will come back some day, Jane. Bye
The apartment was completly clean, tidy and with all necessary you need for your stay. Thank you very much Jane because was absolutely fantastic. We hope to come back soon.
Lovely room, nice view in morning even in Fall. Cool owner, good vibe, Thanks Jane!
If I could I would love to give more than 5 stars! I really and trully enjoyed my stay at Janes place! Jane was very considerate and thoughtful, while accomodating me and my little new born. It was all the loving details of the room and her welcoming attitude that made me feel at home and at ease straight away. It made the room and the place not just a great base to explore London from, but rather a destination in itself!! A true gem!
My experience in Jane's home was totally positive. She was warm, inviting, helpful; an excellent hostess. It was exactly as described and in an excellent location. I would happily return and would recommend it to others.
Jane is an absolutely wonderful and caring host. She made us feel extremely comfortable and gave us a wealth of information both when we arrived and whenever we requested in by phone. The room was beautiful, and all of the services provided far exceeded everything we asked for or were promised. Her little piece of heaven in Wimbledon was a great place to stay. And we'll be back !
This was my first Airbnb experience. After researching the site i settled on Jane's place, which I'm glad I did. I can highly recommend a stay here, the room was inviting and very comfortable and quiet - indeed a lovely place to unwind after a long day out.. Jane is smashing, a lovely person ready to offer any help that is needed and she also respects your privacy. It was a very relaxing place, with a good stock of bedside books (do read Bill Bryson's if you haven't..it is hilarious) to... More »
Although I had misread this ad and believed i was going to have a whole appartement to myself I wasn't at all disappointed!! In the most positive way possible!! A ten minute walk from Wimbledon Station. Nice area. Jane was only there when you needed her, and to be honest we felt we had the whole place to ourselves! The was marvellously comfortable and the picture is exactly what you see when you arrive. Impeccably clean all round (and my girlfriend is particularly fussy!). There's the... More »
I just loved staying at janes place, it aws very close to the station and the shopping area. The room was very nice and clean, liked it especially as the bedroom looked out onto her lovely garden, where i had a lot of my meals. I would recomend janes apartment to stay and i would be more than happy to stay there again.
Jane was so welcoming and helpful - we loved everything about her garden apartment. My daughter made friends with her cat, named some goldfish and was very excited to see a squirrel in the garden. We couldn't fault it and highly recommend it. The location was excellent, close to the tube and train and waggamama's restaurant just around the corner.
Jane's place was a wonderful, comfortable environment (... with the bonus of such a pretty garden, too!), and she couldn't have been a lovelier host--helpful and engaging while always considerate of her guest's privacy and space. A perfect combination. Thanks, Jane, for a great stay with you!
Staying with Jane was easy! She was really helpful, friendly and a fountain of knowledge about the area! I stayed for two weeeks and felt really at home but still had plenty of privancy. The house is really well positioned, especially for attending the tennis. This is my first time overseas by myself and Jane made the experience a lot easier. I would highly recommend this AirBnb. Thank you Jane.
awesome room with all travelers' needs covered! the room is situated right at the end of the house, so it's really private. the view of the garden is really nice too. besides that, the nearby underground leads directly to the heart of central london - just a 20 mins ride. also, nearby restaurants (chinese, mexican, indian) and convenience stalls will ensure your food cravings are settled. jane's a really awesome host. she's friendly and really hospitable. i'm very sure any other traveler...

We recently stayed at Jane's cute garden room. Jane was very friendly and she made sure that our stay in Wimbledon was a pleasant one. Her place is a few minutes walk from the tube and close to Wimbledon Village. Her place is very clean and cozy. After a tiring day of sightseeing , it was a welcoming thought to come back to our room and relax. Jane gave us recommendations to local restaurants and shopping. I would love to stay at Jane's place again someday. Thank you so much Jane for your... More »
Jane is a wonderful human being.
I had a great stay at Jane's place. She was very friendly and helpful, and the room is small but charming. It's about a 10-15 minute walk from the tube station but in a very nice neighborhood so I felt fine, even walking alone after dark. Wimbledon itself is a cute area with plenty of shops and restaurants. Wish I had more time to spend there, but I will definitely be back:-)
Jane is absolutely lovely - extremely friendly and welcoming, and she went beyond the call of duty to make my stay nice. The house is comfy and very clean, and within easy reach of Wimbledon town centre for shopping and transport, but still very quiet. Highly recommended.
I spent three nights at Jane's place. Found her to be very welcoming and hospitable. Nice cosy room with TV , heater and electric blanket if required. The bed was a very comfortable sofa bed. A short walk to the station for both underground and district trains and a very safe neighbourhood. Have no hesitation in returning there.
Very pleasent stay. Great host and facilities available, all for a great price. Won't hesitate to recommend to others.
It was a great stay for me in that room looking to a beautiful garden. The house was very clean, in a safe and quit area, walking distance to fantastic Wimbledon village and the beautiful park. Jane was a fabulous host, wellcomed me very friendly, made me feel like staying in a good friends home. She gave me complete privacy but was open to all my questions and requirements. Everything in this home was beyond my expectations and I would like to stay there again.
The loveliest home away from home. I recently arrived in London and just took my leisure sorting out my affairs relying on Jane's home as the base of operations I can come home to and be at ease. Not too far from Central London, but unless you're after something specific, the Wimbledon main street 10 minutes walk away has pretty much everything from groceries to pubs to bookshops on hand.
Thoughtful hostess, had the heating blanket turned on for my late arrival. Room is very pleasant and private as it is situated at the back of the flat past the kitchen. Very quiet and nicely maintained.
i stayed with janey for a month in february of this year whilst new and settling in to the city. she's an amazing host and i'm happy and proud to say also a great, great friend. hers is the place to be if you want the comfort of home, hilarious company and an endless supply of covent garden soup, hahah! LOVE YOU JANEY! i'll be back ;) XX
A really sweet lady who was friendly and hospitable ;) Loved the OJ!
Sorry for being so late to leave a review. Because I was extremely busy in the weeks before and I was sick for a whole week. Jane is absolutely a good host. Her room is as beautiful as the pictures shown on the website with good smell too. She is very hospitality to treat us food and any information we need. Moreover, she always leave us space and freedom coz she is in her room most of the time. You will feel free and comfortable to stay in her house. The living room and the garden are... More »
Jane is one of the most lovely and interesting people we met in London so far. She always cared about everything we need during our staying at her house. She really help us when we start looking for a permanent flat in London. The room has a lovely view to a nice garden and is the first thing you can see when you wake up. There is also an electric blanket on the bed that is incredible, now we want one for us :) The location is very good and helped us to find very quickly our apartment. My... More »
Me and my friend stayed at Jane´s home for 6 days. Jane is an excellent host and we enjoyed our stay very much. She gave us a good information how to find to her home from airport and she can give advices about transportation from Wimbledon to center of London. The room is very nice and there is electric blanket that was awesome! You will feel like home in her place and opportunity to use the kitchen is good if you don´t want to eat out all the time. I would definitely stay at Jane´s place... More »
Great place to stay, very hospitable. highly recommended.
The Garden Room at Wimbledon was indeed as described and quite lovely. Jane greeted this weary traveller with hot tea, a hot sage scented bath, a warm towel from the dryer and tasty jacket potatoes. She has yogurt, fresh juice, tea and a wonderful granola for breakfast. There is also a washer and dryer combo that came in very handy. We had a nice conversation and she kindly let the neighbourhood cat, William, come visit me. I missed my kitty and after cleaning his face and brushing him... More »
Although the short time I had during my visit, Jane was absolutely wonderful and helped me to use the time in efficient way and also advice to me what is the best way to reach to one of my destination in London. The apartment is wonderful, convenience and located in a wonderful neighborhood. I definitely recommend on this place as a good B&B in London. Best Shachar
Jane was a perfect host. She was friendly and offered her place to enjoy as your own. From the very beginning I was feeling very comfortable. She was often working away quietly in her room so you often feel like you have the whole place to yourself. All products and items in the bathroom and kitchen were available to use as needed. Thank you so much for the ginger, honey and the lemons. The room is very cosy with a beutiful privat garden where every morning I admire the lavender. One... More »
Jane was a very gracious host with a real talent for making sure her guest felt welcomed while respecting the guest's privacy and space. When I arrived at her door step with a hoarse voice from having been on-the-road the week prior, she immediately offered to make me a simple yet soothing herbal drink to cure my hoarseness. My stay at Jane's house was very calming and pleasant: a real enhancement to my visit in London. I would elect to be Jane's guest again at any future destination.
My friend Vanessa and I just loved Jane, she is a wonderful hostess, knowledgeable and very helpful. Her home was absolutely perfect, couldn't ask for a better location, it felt so cozy, that we just wanted to talk with our new friend Jane. Thank you Jane and best wishes! :)
I had a realy lovely stay at Janes place in Wimbledon. The room was nice, bed ok and I could see right into a little English garden. The fridge was full and I could eat what I want. Nice breakfast was made fore me. She was most helpful with ordering taxis, tell me about the neighborought. Jane had a cultivated style and manner and we could have nice conversation and god discussions about all and everything. For a woman travelling alone I realy apriciate her not intruding company.
I had an absolutely wonderful stay with Jane. The room and garden are beautiful, the surrounding area of Wimbledon is amazing, and it's an easy train ride into Central London. Jane was the best host ever, making me and my partner feel so welcome with tea, hot lemon-ginger drinks in the morning, and an electric blanket at night! She was very easygoing, has a great sense of humour and helped us to arrange transportation and find our way around town. I highly recommend staying with Jane -- I... More »

She was often working away quietly in her room so you often feel like you have the whole place to yourself. All products and items in the bathroom and kitchen were available to use as needed, including the washing machine, and she even offered to loan me a scarf when the weather turned unseasonably cool.

Super helpful and accommodating. We swept through in a great rush, we feared, but Jane took it all in stride. Her advice about the best way to get to LHR early Sun morning spared us a grisly tube ride, and saved us money. Room lovely, peaceful. Amazing that in a fairly small apartment, we felt serene and undisturbed. Highly recommended.
I had a lovely stay at Jane's flat, I was there for 3 days and couldn't fault her hospitality. The room was beautifully clean and very comfortable with tv and french doors onto the garden. I would happily stay there again and would highly recommend it. A real find!
I had such a lovely time at Jane's - she was a wonderful host, and the apartment is cosy and well-stocked with everything you could imagine needing. my only regret is that the weather wasn't nicer so I could take advantage of the garden area.
Quiet neighborhood,cozy garden,tidy place,and the kind owner. Really enjoyed the stay. recommended!!
Jane is very nice and sociable. She gives you all that you need and if you have some problem she is always at your disposal!The room is full of light, hospitable and clean as the whole house. We recommend Jane and her room to all!She lives in a quiet neighborhood close to tube station, a perfect solution to visit London!! We hope to return soon..also to see William (a beautiful cat)!!!bye Jane. Alice & Marcello
Jane was exactly what I needed after a summer of traveling. I arrived in Wimbledon exhausted, with a flight to catch the very next day and she greeted me with warm tea and even warmer conversation. In addition to Jane's incredible hospitality, the room was perfect (inviting and comfortable), the neighborhood beautiful and the cat...well there are not enough kind words I can say about the cat. I wish I could have stayed longer, but who knows? Hopefully I'll return in the future.
Nice, quiet room. Helpfull host. Recommanded!
I stayed with Jane for 6 nights at the end of July this year. The room was lovely, opening on to a little garden. Jane was a most gracious host, and a pleasure to talk to. I would definitely stay here again if I needed accommodation in London. It's a short, pleasant walk to the tube station, which also services the National Rail Network. All in all, 5 stars. Thanks muchly Jane! :)
There is nothing that I wish to add. There is no hesitation for me to stay here again for the second and third time, as Jane and her apartment leave a good remark. Very pleasant and as other guests would say "I highly recommend Jane's apartment".
A perfect place of stay. Especially when you're travelling from/to the Heathrow Airport. My last place of stay before going back to Malaysia. Will hopefully making a come back.
wonderful place, clean (with just a few mosquitos), lovely amenities, nibbles, great garden. Jane is a gem.
We spent a very relaxing couple of days at Jane's place, played tennis at the park nearby, visited the venue for the grand slam matches and had good food at a short walk up the hill to the Wimbledon village. Jane is very nice and the room is very clean that opens to a tranquil garden that brings a wonderful morning.
Jane is a lovely lady. She is very polite, considerate and helpful. On the other hand, her apartment is the first Airbnb experience for my family. We left the apartment with good impression as well as introduction of how UK people live their daily life (as this is my family first visit to the UK). Highly recommended.
Jane is an amazing hostess. She was extremely helpful and looked after my every need. I was greeted with a wonderful smile and quiet confidence. There was a map waiting on my bed on how to get to the All England Club, a healthy fruit smoothie and exquisite vegetarian fare. The room was clean and spotless. Beautifully decorated and perfect for a relaxing time with the added bonus of wireless internet. The environment is very safe and secure for a single female traveller. She was even... More »
Made a last minute decision to add a London leg to my Europe trip when I found out I got Wimbledon tickets through a ballot, so I was happy to find Jane's apartment free. It was a lovely, clean room in a beautifully decorated place. Jane had a map of how to get to the AELTC available when I got there and it was a beautiful walk to the tennis. The surrounding area was tranquil and green, but had the convenience of shops and a tube station. Jane provided breakfast cereals, fruits and wifi,... More »
Had a wonderful stay at Jane's beautiful apartment. Her apartment was very clean and tidy. She provided cereal and fruits for breakfast which was a plus. Conveniently located near the subway as well as many shops and restaurants. A leisure 20 - 25 mins walk to Wimbledon Tennis. Jane is a friendly and very accomodating host. Do book your stay with her as she might be moving out soon. Do not miss this great opportunity. Thanks Jane for the lovely 5 nights at your home.
We had an awesome stay with Jane! She's a super generous host and her place was very clean and comfy, in an excellent location where it's got plenty to explore around and a nice walk to the tube station. Room was well equipped and certainly had more than what we expected including a walkout to the garden, with lots of privacy! We were also lucky to have the sunny weather to enjoy breakfast in the backyard. Especially happy that we were able to do our laundry and make fruit smoothies in the... More »
Jane was very welcoming & the room & garden were wonderful. It was also a very nice touch that she had nice fruits, cereals - she was a very thoughtful host. I would not hesitate in recommending her to other people. Thanks Jane!
I had a last minute technology conference and "launch a startup" weekend event, which lasted three days. I needed somewhere to stay for two nights and needed to keep the cost low. Having looked at the option of hostels I had seen some grim reviews of awful experiences including "sharing a room with 18 people". So I decided to give airbnb a go. Jane was a fantastic host, very friendly and generous. She made me feel at home at home and also helped me out tremendously with travel advice since... More »
I had a last minute flight change and needed somewhere to stay and Jane was a great help in accommodating me even with such short notice. It was my first time using airbnb, and i was immediately happy i had went with it on arriving. I felt at right at home from the start. Jane was a fantastic host, friendly and thoughtful. My room was very comfortable, and particularly pretty in the morning with the garden just outside. I was unprepared for my trip to London and a bit unfamiliar, and Jane... More »
Had a last minute stay in London for a science conference and needed a place to stay. Jane's space was home away from home and she was so kind and personable that we became fast friends. Her place is easily accessible from the Tube, located in a wonderful area that addresses both needs for services and quiet respite. Plus, a wonderful walk to beautiful Wimbledon Village with all its boutiques and cafes. The room gets morning sun and I woke up to the sounds of birds chirping with a view of the... More »
