Had a lovely 4 night stay whilst husband working in Richmond. (22 min drive to centre- through Kingston Gate, Richmond Park) Stephanie was a very helpful host.
Authentic 1930's purpose built flat with original tiles in bathroom. Quirky paintings and interesting books and ornaments. Comfy king sized bed and original Beautility Wardrobe-such a wonderful airloom!
No tv as stated but pull down blind and projector which kids loved.
Mom found the stairs (both sides) a bit steep but that's how it was built lol
Kitchen was nicely stocked with useful items- pasta, salt pepper tea coffee etc and we all enjoyed watching the birds high up in the trees.
Also unusual to have a private garden with summerhouse.
As you can only access the A3 from one direction, would be easier to walk or cycle across footbridge to get to Richmond Park as on other side of dual carriageway. We also found a nice walk across the playing fields (at edge of Wimbledon common) to get to Asda- only 12 mins walk. Ignore google maps as it tries to take you up the main road lol! We picked blackberries which was fun. Would recommend for quiet location but not too far from central areas. Thank you Stephanie!
