Quality accommodation in Welling

“Having a cat or indeed any pet is akin to me, as having a child. They are all precious gifts, I would only entrust another person or organisation that had the same expectations, values and standards as myself, if not higher. From the moment I viewed Lily’s Retreat in 2020 & met Louise I knew this would be the perfect place to leave my cat after lockdown. Almost four years on I have to say I haven’t been disappointed an iota. She is loved, cared for, pampered, fed & watered perfectly. I know this as when she returns home she comes back as a very happy bunny.”

“Came for a viewing beforehand and I honestly wasn’t too sure, mainly with the length of time they’re alone overnight without access to outside - it seems like this might be standard practice in kennels though. BUT, it seems like he had a good time. It was my first time boarding my 8.5 year old dog (he’s done daycare and stayed overnight with sitters, just not kennels before). He ate his food which was a surprise, but a good sign. I chose Haytor because of the ability for him to play with other dogs. My dog is nervous with new people, but he gains confidence around other dogs. The drop off felt quite like I was being rushed a bit, but this could just be because they’re aiming to spend as much time as possible with the dogs. It would be great to see photos of them whilst there, through Instagram stories for example (although it seems super busy so that might not be possible). I emailed to check on him in the afternoon and got a response the following morning, which was fine. An option to drop off at the daycare time, if your dog is social, would be great too instead of just 10-12 or 2-5! Especially on a Saturday overnight as you do end up paying for two days for around 24 hours as there are no afternoon pickups on a Sunday, so a single sat to sun overnight comes out quite expensive that way, though I understand different kennels have different booking setups. Overall, my dog came back happy, he ate and although very glad to see me, didn’t seem too bothered by his stay. Would recommend to anyone who feels their dog would benefit in a kennel environment from having other dogs around them! Will use Haytor kennels again for my dog. Thanks for taking care of my boy! :)”

“Our doggy loves going to Birchwood kennels, she always goes in very happily and unlike other kennels we have sent her to, also comes out very happy, as well as smelling great thanks to the grooming service! The staff clearly love the dogs and I would highly recommend.”

“We have used Kingfisher for about 3 years. Have always received great service and would recommend to anyone. We know our cat is in safe hands when we leave him there and don't need to worry about him.”

“My husky stayed here for 7 days while i was away, the ladies at the kennel were amazing so caring and friendly and my dog immediately felt comfortable around them. My dog was well looked after and the groomer deshedded my dog before she came home which was very kind of them to do. Definitely recommend and will be using this kennel again. Thank you”

“Very friendly and helpful staff, reasonable charges and our dogs seemed to be happy. Recommended.”

“We were in Penny and plenty of room. Double bed high so partner could access easily. Quiet corner on the farm. Access to bbq charcoal and logs. Loads of space and loads of information on local area activities pubs shops and food. Sat watching deer, fox, kestral and buzzards with loads of swallows and wildlife. Saw the woodpecker this morning which we had heard all weekend. Well signposted for walks bins and recycling. Big tub of games available to use.”

“Canine Countryside Escape are excellent. They are so reliable and given their professionalism and well staffed team there has never been a day that they haven’t been able to fulfil their services. All of the team are friendly and professional and my dog loves going to them for either walks or day care. His tail is invariably wagging delightedly when they come to pick him up! We’ve used them for three plus years now with no intention of changing providers.”

“Victory will most certainly be staying here again! The staff were very attentive to her and made sure that she was fed and watered every day, while also ensuring her room was cleaned and she was given the opportunity to stretch her legs. They also picked up on her personality straight away and knew how to handle her. It was her first time at the cattery, and both I and her were very nervous, but the staff there made sure she was safe and sound the whole time. I have a very happy Victory back here with me now at home. Thank you to all at Oakley Cattery!”

“Our cat has stayed here on two occasions, both times he has returned healthy and happy. Yvonne is welcoming and gives you peace of mind leaving a beloved pet with her.”

“The ladies in this Salon are absolutely amazing. Joanna, Karolina and Kat - you are absolute angels. We started bringing our sweet Cassie here after she had bad experiences with other groomers - she had become afraid of the whole grooming process. Doggies Furever are ALWAYS so patient with her and they never do anything that stresses her out. It's very hard for me to trust anybody with my dog but I trust all of these ladies without any hesitation. Cassie is hard work, she's strong and very stubborn but they always manage to do such an amazing job on her. We went in yesterday and we were emotional because we had received some bad news about our Cassie - not only were they so comforting and supportive, they offered so much advice. Thank you for EVERYTHING xxx”

“We took our dog for a groom recently, it was his first one with us so we were a bit nervous. He came out looking amazing and was clearly very well treated given how friendly he was with all the groomers. I'd highly recommend this place.”

“Pristine were chosen from a potential 4/5 companies we were looking at to clean our central London office , I can honestly say without doubt we went with the right company. They have such a professional approach and above all the cleaning done is done to a fantastically high standard with very freindly staff and management. I have since recommended them to many of our peers and clients. A1 for sure.”

“I've resided in the area for the past three years, and Cafe N6 has become my sanctuary. I frequent the cozy spot to read and unwind on weekends, savoring my preferred hot chocolate and warm borek. What sets it apart is the delightful array of well-behaved dogs, mirroring the considerate demeanor of their owners. The cafe's aesthetic is perfect for families and remote workers, boasting a clientele that exudes friendliness and lacks any unpleasant encounters – no Karens spotted so far. If you happen to be one, kindly steer clear. The staff is exceptionally welcoming, always accommodating requests for personalized food and drink options, making it my top cafe choice in London. I ensure to bring my loved ones whenever they're in town.”

“Just had my first spray tan by Charlie. I absolutely love it. She was so professional and answered all my questions. Will definately be going back for more xx”

“This B/B was the most perfect location to stay in absolute comfort and attention for visiting Harry potter studio tours, we took our 8 year old grandson and booked the wizardry room as a surprise and when we arrived Marrick met us at reception and he was so friendly and took us to a double room, my grandson was a little bit bored, then he said wrong one and took him to the Harry potter room Elliots face was just amazing to witness, I can only sum this B/B in a few words Room perfect, management perfect, Continental breakfast perfect, location perfect, value for money perfect. Thank you so much for making Elliots visit PERFECT. by the way the tour was perfect as w ell Mike O'Neill”

“Umair runs his company with a passion and personal touch that too many companies in today's times lack. All our queries and questions were responded to promptly, and his suggestions were all on point. From the onset with queries, to booking, transfers and accomodation, alhams all exceeded expectations. When there was a query or help was required, he was on the ball and gave advise or made adjustments immediately. Totally different to my past experiences with other travel agents. May God continue to bless your business bro. Thank you Gatwick for the experience of a lifetime.”

“Been meaning to leave a review for a very long time, however managed to forget..probably due to the fantastic friendly service we always receive from the team. We are always welcomed with open arms and the team bend over backwards to accommodate us. I must shout out the whole team… they’re all amazing… however, Becks has served us since we first started coming here, since moving in locally, before Jason the Head Chef joined, she was the main reason for our return. Jason joined, the food has been out of this world… I would recommend the roasts - they’re delicious! The beef is served pink and the vegetables are cooked perfectly and well seasoned. It’s always a pleasure coming to visit The Black Horse and we cannot recommend it enough. Final shout out to Becks, Jason… our favourites… and of course Harry, Layla, Ben, Jess, Jack and Ollie. ❤️❤️❤️”

“Excellent menu choice and good value for money. Highly recommend this cafe.”

“Dropped my cat off for 12 days while we were on holiday abroad. Lovely place with a lovely owner who is a cat lover. It was easy to find with lots of parking. Really local to me so it was convenient and had room to accommodate for my cat, with a heated blanket to keep her warm during the night. Highly recommend if you are looking for a local cattery to keep your cat while you are away.”

“My 2 dogs enjoyed themselves and fit and healthy after 2 weeks .. had no issues at all”

“Had a lovely Sunday roast with my family, the food was delicious & the service warm & friendly. We will be in touch to book for our Christmas party.”

“Clean, quiet, and amazing employees. We loved this hotel all 6 nights that we were there. I would definitely stay there again. And the grocery store basically right under it was also nice. You should definitely consider staying in here in ealing if visiting London. It is a charming town with extremely easy access to the city.”

“This is the happiest I've ever been at a hotel. Stayed for 6 nights. The bed was amazingly comfortable. Pillows were fantastic (two size options - yay!). The staff is so friendly. Easy check-in and check out. You are close to your neighbors but I didn't hear anyone. The window opened all the way for fresh air. There was also the Eur slot vent with the option to open or close, and an A/C (though I didn't try the A/C). The TV included a handful of channels and the option to login with Netflix. The blackout curtains worked really well (helpful for jet lag). Hot water was hot, water pressure was great. Waterfall and hand held showerheads. The location is walkable to two different train stations. Even in the middle of the night people were walking the streets regularly. It felt very safe. Local pubs had friendly vibes. Hotel bar had travelers in it regularly working or sipping on cocktails. Room came with cotton rounds (yay!), Qtips, shower cap (yay!), hair dryer, body wash, shampoo, conditioner from a good brand. Iron was available on request. Laundry services are a one-day turnaround, drop off morning, get it back at night. Sink basin closes should you need to hand wash. Complimentary tea and coffee in the room. The tea was particularly yummy. The coffee was Nepresso with a variety of pods. The fridge included snacks and alcohol for cost, prices listed. The room also has a safe. The whole hotel was very clean. To set expectations, the room is smaller compared to maybe what someone in the US would be used to (it's London after all). Hangers and one small drawer for your clothes. No full length mirror and no where to place anything in the shower (ie your razor). The shower's a bit tight. No lifts (again it's London) but they are happy to help you with your bags. This place just had a great vibe and getting a good night's sleep is such a privilege when traveling. Highly Recommend.”

“Fantastic Cattery. Took cat to them for the first time in 9 years and he came back happy and relaxed. Spacious cat sleeping area and pleanty of room for him to move around Highly recommended.”

“I’m very gratefull to the girls that worked so hard to look after my bambino amongst many other cats. Everything was organised well and the pens where tidy and clean at all times. I was kept up to date with how my bambino was which put my mind at ease. I would certainly use this cat boarding lodge again if I ever needed a safe place for my cat xx”

“Had the privilege of being served by Trent and Matthew in the restaurant. Delicious food, fast service and gorgeous venue. Highly recommend for a small night out or a dinner for large groups.”

“First time visiting with my friends and will definitely be back! Food was lovely and a very welcoming atmosphere, a special thank you to Clio who served us and was amazing! So glad I found this gem!”

“Really great service everyone there are so friendly and helpful my dog is really happy to visit there and not at all nervous. I'm so grateful.”

“Our two cats were very well cared for at Treetops. The staff are friendly and efficient, and seem to care about the cats they're looking after. On dropping ours off I saw where they were going to be for the week and I was impressed that it was spotlessly clean. A great local cattery.”
