We stayed at this property in February 2024 for a week as a family of 4 to visit London.
The property is a charming small townhouse in a pedestrian alley at the heart of beautiful Richmond. It has been recently renovated.
The property is a great base to both visit London and enjoy Richmond. In a range of 200 m from the house there are plenty of cafes, grocery stores, shopping, and pubs as well as Richmond's riverfront. Richmond's train station is just 10 min walk away connecting to London via underground and rail lines (20-35 min). Heathrow is 20 min away via taxi or 50 min away via public bus #490 (stop is 30 m from the house).
There are few things on this property that you may want to be aware as it may or may not work for you:
- the property extends over 3 floors, with bedrooms on the second floor, and kitchen, living room and bathroom on the 3rd floor...so potentially not ideal for small children
- there is one single bathroom has been renovated but it is very very small. The shower has enjoyable high pressure hot water
- the master bedroom faces the pedestrian alley which is mostly very quiet, but on Saturday night there was live music until 11 pm which was loud..not a problem for us, but may be for others
- the second bedroom's bed is really for one, so if you are 4, you may need to use the couch in the living room (not a sofa bed) or bring an inflatable portable mattress
Everything else was fine and worked well for us (kitchen, bedding, internet, tv,....).
