Guests appreciate the cottage's excellent location in Richmond, close to local attractions and dining options. The property is praised for its comfortable beds, modern bathroom, and well-equipped kitchen. While some guests encountered issues with parking and maintenance, the overall experience is seen as positive, with many expressing a desire to return.
Cleanliness has received mixed feedback. Several guests reported cobwebs and a general need for a more thorough cleaning, while others found the property to be clean and well-presented. The presence of cleanliness issues in multiple reviews suggests room for improvement.
The location is highly praised for its convenience and proximity to Richmond's town centre, with easy access to shops, restaurants, and historic sites. Despite some comments about noise and parking challenges, the central location is a standout feature.
Comfort is generally well-regarded, with guests finding the beds comfortable and the living spaces homely. However, some guests mentioned issues with the shower design and steep stairs, which slightly impacted the overall comfort level.
Facilities are modern and mostly appreciated, but several maintenance issues such as loose toilet seats, missing blind chains, and problematic door locks were noted. The well-equipped kitchen and the inclusion of a washing machine are positives.

Set within the bustling town of Richmond, North Yorkshire, is this three-storey stone-fronted cottage, 9 Victoria Road. Furnished to a high standard, boasting a contemporary open-plan living space, and conveniently located to an array of local amenities and landmarks, the cottage is the perfect place to stay if you want to spend some quality time as a family; 9 Victoria Road accommodates four guests and one well-behaved dog, the ideal companion for popular North Yorkshire walks. Arriving at the cottage, you’ll be welcomed by both roadside parking and a private parking space, suitable for one small car, followed by a private rear patio area, where you can unwind, enjoy a glass of wine, and store any outdoor equipment. Entering the snug, offering some peace and quiet from the main social hub of the property, you’ll find a desk and a relaxation area, along with a convenient cloakroom. Venturing up to the second floor, be wowed by the contemporary design in the open-plan living space, with plush velvet furnishings, stylish features and state-of-the-art appliances; relax in front of the TV, prepare your meals, dine as a family, and gaze across the county from your elevated position. To truly unwind, discover the chic bathroom, with contemporary fixtures, perfect to sit back and relax in the free-standing bath, or why not refresh in the walk-in rainfall shower? Once sleep calls, head to two spacious and well-positioned bedrooms, where you can unpack your belongings and store them on the sleek industrial clothing rails, before resting your eyes ahead of your countryside adventure; select between a king-size and a ground-floor double, both completed with deluxe furnishings. Situated a stone’s throw away from the town centre, you’ll have a wealth of amenities to benefit from whilst staying in Richmond; opt for a bite to eat at The Ralph Fitz Randal or pick up the essentials at a nearby Lidl. You’ll also find an array of attractions to enjoy, right on your doorstep, including Richmond Castle, Richmondshire Museum, and River Swale Waterfalls, displaying a snippet of the town’s culture. The ruins of Easby Abbey, The Bowes Museum and Middleham Castle all also showcase the local heritage, exhibiting decades of history. If you love to be outdoors, take a stroll around Foxglove Covert, hike around the trails of Round Howe Wood, or appreciate the stillness of The Himalayan Garden & Sculpture Park. Choose 9 Victoria Road as your dwelling for a memorable trip to North Yorkshire.
Richmond, the ancient market town at the entrance to Swaledale, stands on a conspicuous hilltop site to the north of the River Swale. Its cobblestone streets and small alleyways, known as wynds, are home to nearly nine centuries of history and character. The town grew up around its castle, a Norman bastion built in 1071 and famously perched high above the river - the name Richmond comes from the French word 'riche-mont,' which means ‘strong hill.' Today, beautiful walks can be experienced, such as the Castle Walk, a stunning terrace walk beneath the castle walls, or a walk along the River Swale, which includes parks, safe paddling spots, and small waterfalls.
