Hi all,


Just wondering if anyone can help us - we're looking at renting a house in this estate and wanted to know if people have any experience of living there. What is it like at night? Should we be concerned about walking back from the station in the dark and are there any problems with gangs/overly antisocial behaviour etc that people know about? We currently live in ED/Camberwell borders (off Dog Kennel Hill) - we are not shrinking violets but we want to live somewhere safe with our young family.


Really appreciate any thoughts!

I live up the road just a little so don't know what the estate itself is like, but the area is lovely. The park of course, the pubs (Clockhouse / Rye Hotel), a great doctors surgery (Nunhead Grove), Nunhead shops. Come to police ward panels and make yourself known to the local safer neighbourhood teams, the local police, which may make you feel safer, but I am not aware of any particular issues around there. Enjoy!

    • Some good shouts above! Agree with zork on Guacamoles (authentic - no frills) and Ganapati, and agree with malumbu on En Root - really love that place.  @Eats Dulwich - I like Roti King too, although my Malaysian friend says this is only one type of Malaysian cooking, and there are plenty of other good restaurants around London  - Normah's (Queensway) is another classic - Mambow (which moved from Peckham to Clapton unfortunately) was amazing too - but I think I might prefer Janda to all the above - maybe best to wait a few weeks before visiting Janda, to let the post-Times-review crowd settle down!
    • Kids water gun in working order is needed, please. Can collect this evening in Dulwich Village and near vicinity, happy to pay. 
    • Walking round Dulwich park lake yesterday with my camera, Merlin bird app running and keeping and eye out for anything interesting.  Merlin reports that it has heard a Curlew then a minute later a Ringer Plover. I think this is very unlikely (though weird that it apparently heard both waders within a minute), but I thought I'd have a good look anyway. Watching the lake I see a grey and white bird coming in across the water - too big for the Plover, but got my camera on it as it landed and started pecking round the margin.  Zoomed in, got a few shots and worked out it was a Common Sandpiper!  Not sure how it got so far from it's natural habitat, but there you go. I wonder about the Curlew and Plover, but still assume they must have been Merlin getting confused.  Keep an eye out though.
    • Please bring this to Dulwich Village - we only have cafés and chain stores and could really do with some retail dynamism ! There's so much disposable income in the area, but so few good options to spend it.
