Perfect for couples, friends or a small family, this traditional cottage in the heart of Richmond is a characterful base for discovering the best of this historic market town. Tucked away behind a vibrant blue door, the cottage was once a clay potter’s workshop and retains much of its original charm, complete with a private courtyard garden.
The entrance opens into a welcoming hallway with space for boots and coats. Inside, the cottage blends period features with modern comforts, offering light-filled interiors, shuttered windows, and calm, neutral decor throughout. A stylish shower room on the ground floor awaits for freshening up after countryside adventures. A few steps lead up to the bright and airy open-plan living space. The kitchen is well-equipped for rustling up delicious meals, while the breakfast bar is ideal for casual dining. The lounge area invites you to unwind with a Smart TV and roaring wood burner for cosy evenings in. Upstairs, two beautifully presented double bedrooms provide peaceful places to rest. Both are tastefully decorated, with the larger of the two boasting built-in storage and a view over the rear courtyard. Outside, a private walled courtyard is a tranquil spot to enjoy morning coffee or a sundowner. On-street parking is available within 100 metres of the cottage, subject to availability.
Begin your day with a wander around the cobbled Market Place, where regular markets boast everything from local produce to handmade crafts.
