We had a lovely stay! The location was perfect, a quiet beautiful street close to bus line, restaurants and shops. Communication with the owner was great. We would most definitely stay here again and would recommend to others.

Perfect property, superbly located, down a wonderfully historic and pretty side road.
Close to all necessary amenities, whether you are an avid walker, with or without your dog (s), or if you are visiting the local area for the rugby or the many local theatres.
The house itself is clean, bright, and has a fully fitted kitchen and wonderful enclosed garden. Fully recommend

Relaxed
Super location at end of no through road so only noise was that of wildlife in adjacent park. Within 5 minutes walk of Thames and also bus into Richmond Town Centre and from there into London. Val sorted out a couple of minor problems whilst we were staying and during the booking process quickly answered our questions. Ideal for what we were looking for, namely a safe and comfortable stay within easy reach of London. Recommend

All the positive things that others have said are true, so I won't repeat them. Suffice it to say that I couldn't leave without booking a return visit.

This is a lovely, quiet, restful place to stay. The property was well maintained, clean, with literature on how the appliances, wifi, etc. worked. The location is 10 min from the train station and closer to regular bus service; and a short walk to the Thames; 30 minute by train to London Waterloo. We found two great pubs and enjoyed our time so much we want to go back!

We stayed at the start of June 2015 with our two girls (3 and 5). This is such a lovely cottage - really peaceful and lovely having some outside space. It is also so close to everything you need. We had picnics in the park which is literally just round the corner, yet were only 10 mins walk from the station to get into London if that is what you fancy. St Margarets is lovely and has enough coffee shops and restaurants to keep anyone going!
The cottage itself was perfect for what we wanted - it isn't huge but the four of us had plenty of space, even with all of the stuff the young children bring with them! The small touches like handwash, washing up liquid, kitchen towel etc make life much easier. We hope to come again.

We stayed in the Garden Cottage - a party of 4 adults and 1 small dog - who loved the small, patio garden. The cottage is comfortable and well supplied with the basic necessities that you need on arrival. It is located in a peaceful cul-de-sac and conveniently situated for public transportation links to Hampton Court Palace and the City of London.
Val, the owner was extremely helpful at all times and provided us with excellent information on how best to travel into London. Following her advice we walked (about 8 mins) from the cottage to St. Margaret's station, caught the above ground train to Waterloo, then a quick and easy change to the Bakerloo line into Piccadilly.Total travel time from cottage - 45-50 mins.
Upon departure from the cottage, Val followed up with us regarding our stay and promptly returned our security deposit. This is the mark of a very good hostess!
And thank you to Freddie for checking us in on the Sunday.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week's stay in this lovely cottage. It is in a delightful location in a quiet cul-de-sac with the river walk and parks close by. There is a local bus stop at the top of the road and St Margarets train station is within easy walking distance.

The description of the cottage was quite accurate. It was very comfortable & provided me with a good base & also allowed me plenty of opportunity to entertain my two children & grandchildren who have moved to England from Australia. I also brought my daughter & another grandchild & all amenities required for a baby were provided including a stair barrier. The location to transport was excellent & the streetscape delightful. We hired a car which wasn't necessary as buses to the airport & Hampton Court were nearby as was St Margaret's station. Restaurants were plentiful nearby so it all made for an easy stay. The owner is a great communicator & was in touch via text to ensure we were happy. Excellent.

Lovely compact cottage, beautifully presented, cosy and warm and such a peaceful area. Great riverside walks, so handy for Richmond and Twickenham stadium. The owner, Val is very helpful and easy to contact and arrange things with. We had a super stay and can recommend it to anyone, we usually stay in a hotel in Richmond and this was so much nicer we could really chill and relax with our 2 daughters

Our group of 4 had stayed here last year and we were pleased to be able to come again this summer. The cottage is absolutely delightful: it is quite compact but has everything you could want to feel totally at home. It benefits from being in a quiet cul-de-sac with no through traffic. It was especially lovely to sit out in the very private garden either to eat or just to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.Large parks and the river are close by. We regularly used the foot-ferry to get to the other side of the river too. There are lots of useful and interesting shops and a railway station just a few minutes walk away in St. Margarets. Larger shops are fairly close by in Twickenham (a relatively short walk along the river) and Richmond. There are really good transport links to other areas, central London, and Heathrow.As before, Val was incredibly helpful and welcoming. I'm hoping that the annual event we attend will be in the same area again next year so that we can pay yet another visit to our favourite London holiday home.

Over the course of a couple of months earlier this year, my husband rented this cottage on and off as a base for work when he was up in town. We then visited at the weekends whenever we could. It was a heavenly, charming place that we immediately fell in love with. Its location is perfect. Hidden away down a no through road, beside the park and just around the corner from the river - you would have no idea that you were so close to the city. The parrots were incredible too. Loads of them in the trees above the cottage!We spent many happy hours in Marble Hill Park and wandering along the river towards Twickenham or Richmond and stopping off at the White Swan on the way.There is a bus stop at the top of the road which takes you into Richmond in a few minutes and also parking both on Montpelier Row over night or at the top on Richmond Road where you can park all day very reasonably.The house itself was perfect. It was very well kept and equipped and always had great linen and towels. We also loved opening the french windows onto the garden which you could sit in and feel really away from it all.Finally, the owner Val is totally accommodating and was very kind at all times. She was a delight to deal with.We hope to stay again when ever we need to be up in London again in the future.

VERY COMFORTABLE 'HOME AWAY' - Quaint and charming
Wonderful garden cottage situated in a quiet and attractive 'no-through road' residential street. Beside Marble Hill Park and very close to the Thames tow path....so endless available and interesting walks. Very good bus service just at the end of the street and a pleasant walk to both St Margarets and Richmond. Good pubs and restaurants scattered about the close neighbourhood.
Cottage was immaculate and provided just everything you could want from large fluffy towels to a vast range of kitchen utensils etc.
Attached garden was marvellous as french doors opened onto it which brought the outside in and made it so relaxed. The odd squirrel appeared too!
A wonderfully character filled abode and one which we'd loved to return to one day.

Wohlfühlen wie zuhause-you feel good like at home
Meine Familie (mein Lebensgefährte und unser 13jähriger Sohn) und ich haben das Häuschen sofort ins Herz geschlossen. Es bietet eine hübsche und zweckmäßige Einrichtung und harmonische Raummaße; die beiden Schlafzimmer sind gemütlich, die Betten bequem. Alles ist wunderbar sauber und geordnet. Man merkt auch nicht, dass es sich um eine Doppelhaushälfte handelt; die Wände sind gut gedämmt, überhaupt nicht hellhörig. Der Höhepunkt ist der schöne Garten und die wunderbare Umgebung. Wer Parks und Ruhe liebt kommt voll auf seine Kosten: Marble Hill und all´die anderen Parks in der unmittelbaren Umgebung; außerdem Hampton Court und Kew Gardens um die Ecke. Zur Bahnstation St. Margarets geht´s zu Fuß in 10 Minuten durch die netten Straßen von Richmond. Die Zugfahrt nach Waterloo Station dauert 30 Minuten. Das kling vielleicht etwas lange. Aber wir waren abends immer wieder froh, der Hektik und den Menschenmengen der Großstadt Londons zu entkommen,
Der Kontakt zu Val per e-mail auf Englisch klappt wunderbar. Sie geht auf jede Frage ein und hat auch das Parkproblem in der Montpellier Row wohlwollend gelöst.
Für jeden, der nicht mittendrin, aber trotzdem in London Urlaub machen möchte, das ideale Quartier. Ich würde es jederzeit wieder buchen.

CLASSY LOCATION
We spent a short break in this very nice property in January of this year, specifically to shop the last of the London sales and see a West End show.
We had a very enjoyable time and were most impressed with the classy location, which was also extremely quiet. The cottage was cosy and warm and excellent for transport. We loved our stay so much that we made a return visit a couple of months ago, the weather by then was warm enough to have lunch in the beautiful garden. The River Thames between Richmond and Twickenham is lovely, with lots of interesting places to visit and we loved it!

Exactly as advertised and perfect location
No surprises, exactly as presented, spotless, with absolutely everything in order. The location, character, and amenities were all as billed and everything we required. If you're interested in immersing yourself in with the locals then I absolutely recommend this property without reservation. Val was relaxed to deal with and made the process of booking simplicity itself. We'll definitely be back.

Country Quiet, Easy City Access
We - a family of four, two teenaged children - wanted a quiet place away from the hubbub of downtown London, but close enough to be able to get into town easily. We knew Twickenham from having lived there in the mid-90's (before kids!).
The cottage was exactly as advertised - and thoroughly wonderful. Quiet, clean, well appointed with everything we needed...and the owner, Val, was absolutely accommodating on everything we needed.
The kitchen was great and appointed with everything we needed. The big, fluffy towels were a big thing for my daughters. Plenty of hot water, washing machine, iron...everything we needed.
The location is wonderful...if you get tired of London there is more than enough to do in Richmond and Kew. You could spend a whole day just strolling through Marble Hill Park right behind the cottage, walking along the Thames and hitting a pub or two.
Many good restaurants in Richmond...only a 15 minute walk or 5 minute bus ride away.
And Hampton Court and Bushy Park are nearby as well.
All in all a great stay - comfortable, clean, bright and airy. Highly recommended ...and when we return to England we'll stay there again!

Perfect Holiday Location
Myself, my wife and our daughters aged 10 and 12 very much enjoyed our
stay in this charming property during November.
For us the location was perfect, the street was very quiet with no
traffic noise.
The property was adjacent to a nice park and the river Thames, yet was
close to shops and restaurants and the amenities of both St. Margaret's
and Richmond. Also, it was very easy to catch the train into London to
visit all the famous sites.
The cottage is not large, but was just perfect for a family of four
and the garden was a bonus.
There was plenty of information about places to visit, but we would
definitely recommend a visit to Hampton Court Palace, as the kids
particularly enjoyed exploring the maze and also Windsor Castle, which
we found was easy to do by the train from Richmond.
The White Swan on the riverbank is also a must, nice setting for lunch
or just a drink.

Great Location
Loved the location, very smart, the hub without the hubbub!
Easy access to Central London, but loads to do locally and especially
liked Kew Gardens.
Very nice property with everything needed for a holiday stay,
including a private garden. Also, a good selection of books, DVDs’ and
games and the cupboards had basic essentials such as tea, coffee and
sugar, as well soap powder and dishwasher tablets etc.
We were made to feel very welcome in this home away from home.
A success!

Cosy cottage in a beautiful peaceful location
Four of us were attending an event across the river in Richmond, and were delighted to find this super little cottage. It's in a beautiful and peaceful spot right next to Marble Hill Park. Even though our visit was during the hottest week of the summer, the cottage was cool enough with the sash windows open top and bottom. As it's at the end of a cul-de-sac then there was no traffic noise to keep us awake. The cottage is compact - the twin bedroom may feel a little small for 2 larger than average people - but was just fine for us (4 average sized adults).
The garden is very private and shaded in the morning and early afternoon - a delightful place to have breakfast and lunch and a friendly robin was a regular visitor. We were out and about so much enjoying the wonderful weather and the nearby parks that we didn't have time to use the large selection of games, DVDs, or books.
There's a great selection of shops and cafes only a few minutes walk away in St Margarets. An excellent butcher, large greengrocer, wholefood shop and french bakery were our particular favourites.
There are lovely walks along the river to both Twickenham and Richmond, and the foot ferry to Ham House was really handy. Val was incredibly helpful and welcoming and we are all looking forward to a return trip next year.

Comfortable starting point to explore London
When we arrived from Germany we fall immediately in love with this cosy cottage at the end of the Montpelier Row next to Marble Hill Park. Great location as described!
The house is just 100 m from the next bus station with frequent buses and very good connection to London, Windsor, and Oxford etc. via St. Margarets or Richmond Station. But you don’t need to go far, the beauty of nature is just around the corner and we enjoyed relaxing walks to the parks and along the river to Richmond and Twickenham. After a lively day at London, we enjoyed the calm privacy of the patio of the cottage.
In case of rainy days there are plenty of books and DVDs. The internet access is essential and supported us to be connected with home (and business). We found helpful information collected in a folder in the cottage about our needs including recommendations of restaurants and shopping nearby.
All essential facilities are provided and everything you need for the two weeks holidays is available. We received plenty of fresh towels and bed linen. The service and good understanding of any questions was excellent: fast response and very helpful suggestions regarding our sightseeing tours. Thank you, Val!
We certainly recommend this cottage to our friends and we will consider strongly returning one day!
