We had a brilliant week at Pinfold Cottage. The cottage is well situated in the centre of Richmond, just a couple of minutes walk from the market square. It is very clean; warm, extremely comfortable and has plenty of books and games to enjoy. The kitchen is very well equipped for self catering and we made good use of the washing machine.Car parking is just behind the cottage and very easy / close. It was £19.80 for the week paid via Ringo. The welcome Prosecco and chocolates were lovely, thank you. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Lovely cosy cottage, nicely decorated and has everything you need for a great self catering break. Easy walk into Richmond town centre. The cottage has a nice rear court yard garden with seating which would be great for dining outside in summertime. All in all a very homely and well presented comfortable cottage.
