Firstly Shaun is the perfect host, informative and always there if you need him. The property is located in a quiet out of town location. It is equipped with all the necessary requirements for a self catering holiday. We had great weather so the patio was well used.
As others have said the cottage is a pleasant 1/2 mile walk into town, which we walked each evening, stopping on the way to watch a bit of cricket. It should be noted however, that the cottage is at the top of very a steep hill, which maybe a problem if you have health or mobility issues. For us this was no real issue, as this is why god created taxis, all of whom were more than willing to take us on the short (£3 fare) back up the hill. This said, Richmond is another one of those towns were you are generally either going up or coming down a hills so you get used to the exertion.
I have absolutely no reservation in recommending this property to anybody thinking of of a visit
