Pros:

We stayed in the units located in the 'Stables' at the rear of the pub. It was a clean, spacious unit which was located in the centre of Richmond and walking distance to all sights. The staff are always lovely when we stay, and the pub's food and wine are delicious. There is plenty of free parking at the accommodation. We will definitely stay again.
