This converted 19th-century church lies in Richmond-upon-Thames, re-imagined for a stay as exclusive as it is extraordinary. Boasting an indoor pool, a games room, and an array of living spaces from the mezzanine to the bell tower, large groups will have all the space they need. The seven bedrooms are spread across five floors, with two situated in the guest cottage for extra privacy. The lush, flower-filled grounds are equipped for alfresco dining and drinks while the children play. The garden backs onto Richmond Golf Course for easy access to the green, with Richmond's centre a breezy stroll away along the riverside.
