Richmond
Richmond is a leafy, vibrant market town boasting an impressive castle, a vast cobbled market place and an elegant Georgian district. It was formed by the Normans in 1071 and the town grew up around the castle which still dominates the skyline. It is said that the walls of the former imprisonment of King William are 11 feet thick and the exhibition centre within the grounds offers an impressive background into the history of this famous landmark.

Richmond is an exciting and vibrant place with plenty of quirky shops, art galleries and a good choice of pubs, restaurants and bars. Every Saturday there is a traditional outdoor market, joined by a popular farmers market once a month. The town is also the gateway to wonderful and unspoilt countryside, making it an ideal base for cycling, walking and other outdoor pursuits. The historic towns of York and Harrogate are also within easy reach.

 

 

 

Reviews

We have been holidaying in North Yorkshire for over 20 years and this is by far our favourite holiday cottage of all; it’s a large detached cottage with a lovely private garden surrounded by spectacular views of the dales.

Mr B,

Beautiful cottage in a quiet, isolated and idyllic location surrounded by fantastic walks and great places to visit.

Mrs F,

A beautifully presented barn conversion in a very quiet and relaxing part of the country . We were wanting ‘somewhere away from it all’ and we were not disappointed !

Prof G,

booking procedure was easy and perfect. The booked cottage was clean and well equipped and the posiition of the cottage was first class.

Mr Ulrich K,

This is a terrific cottage in a wonderful location - remote, quiet, surrounded by wildlife (plus sheep and cows). The only thing to be aware of is that the broadband struggles to manage the smart TV at the same time as a Zoom call, so there was a bit of buffering if we did too much at once. As we live in a rural location, we know all about that, and are sympathetic to the limitations of underpowered rural connections! Swaledale is extraordinarily lovely.

Prof W,

Superb location total peace and quiet. Great views ample parking would not hesitate to stay again.

Mr H,

Beautiful cottage in the moors , amazing views , great location for walking , we road mountain bikes, had 2 long great rides , Abundance of wildlife, birds , The accommodation was perfect couldn't have asked for more , spacious, clean, comfortable, relaxing, had a great holiday .

Mrs M,

Overall the property is a high standard and the location is second to none. The cleaning standard was good in the visible areas, but we had to tidy-up some used tisses and dust behind the beds and chest of drawers (places not often picked-up). The driveway to the house has some large potholes so the advice for use of a 4x4 was good, but these will need attention sooner or later as the heavy rain eroded them even further while we were there. Couldn`t find the outside bin! These are minor points - the cottage and location are both excellent.

Mr Simon A,
