Vale View has all the things you need for a visit to Richmond, it is well equipped and spotlessly clean. Car parking is adequate for one car, but you could also walk into the town.

Excellent dog friendly cottage in a dog friendly area. Secure garden. Parking. Off lead walking close by. Within walking distance of Richmond centre as long as you don't mind hills. Richmond itself is a nice market town with lots to see.
