This is a friendly personal space, owned by someone who's obviously an interesting character. All the amenities you'd expect are there, with an airy conservatory/extension at the rear and a lounge area at the front. The house is very well situated for central Richmond. Other people have mentioned noise from planes. I didn't notice this, but there is some noise from trains. Close the double-glazed window in the bedroom and it's not an issue – so don't let this put you off. In choosing a room in someone's house, part of the exercise is meeting the owner. Unfortunately Sarah was away, so I didn't have that opportunity - which would I'm sure have added to the experience. I'd certainly happily go back, which is I guess a reasonable gauge of what is being offered.
