Lovely period house

We had a lovely stay in this well situated holiday home. It is cosy, clean and has everything you need on the doorstep. The parking was fine, a lovely walk along the river to and from the car park, and a weekly fee that was very reasonable, just be aware of the hill (as flatlanders it took a bit of getting used to!). The stairs in the cottage are steep but manageable if you have no mobility issues, they are in keeping with the age of the house. The shower was lovely and the bed very comfy. Overall, we had a great stay in Richmond and explored the surrounding area, returning each afternoon to a comfy, cosy base. Richmond itself is great and you couldn’t stay much closer to the castle! Great communication with the owner. We would stay again.

Hi Anne, Many thanks for your review. We're very sorry you had issues opening the windows; this is due to recently having the exterior of the cottage painted which may have made the windows a little difficult to open. This has now been resolved. We endeavor to keep the cleanliness of the cottage at the highest level we don't actually find the cottage to have a musty smell. Our cleaners work very hard and take great in maintaining the highest cleanliness. As with many 1700-century building, the stairs are quite steep and the cottage is on 3 floors, this is stated in the description. However, I will highlight this further. I don’t understand your comment regarding parking. We always provide details to the guest giving several different options to park nearby. Furthermore, there is welcome pack in the cottage with this and other and I did email you personally with the same information. So I don’t really understand why did you have any problems to park. We really value our guest's feedback and would like to thank you for your booking. Best wishes, Millgate Cottage

Great cottage, perfect location

Really nice cottage on 3 floors. Description of property is accurate and also comes with everything you need. The location is a 60 second walk from the main town square , but it’s still very quiet, as there is very little through traffic on millgate. Great walks round castle walls and along the side of the river, close by. Will be back again.
