About Richmond
It's not hard to fall in love with Richmond. When you're in the midst of the wilderness of its beautiful park surrounded by deer, it's almost impossible to believe that you are in fact only eight miles from Central London. Originally a royal retreat, the area has been known as ‘London’s Arcadia’ for hundreds of years, with famous figures such as David Attenborough, Jerry Hall, Richard E Grant, Ronnie Wood...

Local restaurants, cafes, museums, sites and activities, recommended by our community of hosts and travel experts
Grab a Coffee at Tide Tables
Sat next to the river this spot is a popular one for the view but also sells delicious coffee and is the best vegan & veggie spot in town. No breakfast menu but you can get a wicked croissant or cake.
Go Bavarian at Steins
We know good beer and wants a good helping of it so this one comes highly recommended by Alena. Head down to get the best Bratwurst, Brezels & Pitchers of the good juice.
Explore Richmond’s finest art at Orleans Gallery
A far cry from the big names of the Tate and the National Gallery, this small museum of local rarities is a haven for art and history lovers. The aptly named Octagon room is a particular highlight.
Grab a pint at the Eel Pie Pub
If you don’t fancy the trip to the stadium, this is the perfect pub for enjoying the rugby on the telly with a pint in hand. Great pub-grub and cosy interiors make it a lovely spot for a rainy day.
Step into the tranquil York House Gardens
A hidden gem of the area, the statues and manicured Japanese gardens of York House transport you to another time and continent. Try to catch the late afternoon sun to see it in all its glory.

In the summer this place is buzzing! Even in the winter it's a beautiful walk, and there’s some great spots to stop for a pint or rent a boat for peaceful paddle down the Thames.
