Location

Just a short riverside stroll over Richmond Lock foot bridge and you are in Richmond, within a few hundred metres of its sophisticated yet charming shops and restaurants. Richmond train station (within about a mile) provides a rapid and direct service into London Waterloo, as well as the District line tube and overland to Stratford, via North London. Local schools are considered amongst the best in the country and include Kings House School, The Old Vicarage, Kew Green, LEH (Lady Eleanor Hollis), St Catherine's, St Paul's, Hampton School, The Harrodian & Ibstock.
