An absolutely wonderful place to stay. Edward is an amazing host who genuinely cares that his guests have a good experience while in Richmond. The room is spacious and has plenty of living space for someone on a longer trip. His home is amazingly clean and has everything anyone could hope for.
His home is also in a great location for anyone who plans to be working at the National Archive. It's only a twenty minute walk to the archives and is also right on a bus line to them if the weather is bad or one prefers not to walk. It's also close to both the Richmond and Kew Garden stops on the district line, so it's amazingly quickly and easy to get into Central London.
I cannot recommend staying with Edward enough. I would definitely stay with him again on future trips to London.
