This was our second stay in this cottage and we had a lovely time. The bedrooms have great storage and very comfortable beds. Being in February, it was cold but we would boost the heating and it warmed up really quickly. The location is brilliant and we love Richmond.

My wife and I visit Richmond quite often. It is an extremely welcoming town offering excellent amenities, great pubs and lots of great walks. I wish we had found this cottage earlier. It is in a great location, spacious and very well presented. We will be staying again, hopefully very soon! ps: its library is fantastic!!
