"I stayed with my kids for 1 week and it was great! The apartment was peaceful during the day and also at night despite being so close to downtown Richmond. Very cozy with plenty of storage space for our luggage and clothes. Also, the host provided plenty of towels for our stay. It has a fully equipped kitchen with a dinning table in a cozy nook near the window overlooking some gardens. The host also provided pamphlets for nearby attractions. The apartment also has fans and an air-conditioner."

"Great stay at Larkfield's studio. Arthur is very kind and responsive. He was also very kind to let us leave our luggage for a few hours after check out time, accommodating our needs. The house is clean and comfortable, very close to all Richmond’s main attractions and well connected to the city. We would definitely stay there again. Thank you again Arthur."

"My wife and I had a very nice 2-week stay at this excellent location, quick walk to the rail station, close to eateries and shopping. The property was cozy, clean and comfortable, and the host very welcoming and responsive. I would definitely stay at this property again when visiting Richmond."

"Arthur’s space was everything he wrote in his description. It was clean, well maintained and full of thoughtful details. He allowed us in several hours early which made checkin really smooth. Would definitely come back."

"We had a lovely stay. The accommodations were great and the location couldn’t have been more perfect."

"The location is very convenient, just under 5 minutes from the train station. The rooms are clean and tidy. Everything is well equipped. Arthor is very welcoming and helped me with my very heavy luggage, thanks for all the help he provided."

"All is OK except the noise of the planes in the early morning . the appartment is really nice and clean. Arthur is helpfull. Thank you."

"this accommodation is ideally located for everthing we wanted to do. train station very close. ample grocery and other shops. many beautiful Richmond gardens for coffee and cake."

"A really great location for seeing Richmond and so close to the train station to get into London."

"The apartment was very clean, recently renovated, and attractive. It's a loft, so the walls angle in around the sides (as pictured), but it was more spacious than I expected. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen well equipped. The shower was good, and the wifi is excellent. The location is great: the street was quiet and peaceful, the train station is around the corner, and it's just a short walk to the centre of town, where there are supermarkets and restaurants, as well as riverside pubs, walks and rowboats for hire. Arthur was very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this apartment, and I would happily stay here again."

"Arthur's place was great! Just the right size, prime location to be able to explore Richmond, or grab a train to Central London. Also, very quiet!"

"Perfect place for a short stay. (5/5 Rating). I arranged for a colleague to stay here while working at Royal Botanic Gardens Kew for a couple of weeks. It was within walking distance of Kew and nearby to local shops in Richmond so the location was perfect. There is also a well equipped kitchen so you can prepare your own food. Arthur was really helpful and made sure my colleague had everything they needed. Thanks again and we will likely be arranging another visit soon."

"Your three properties were the perfect base for my brother's wedding and so well-located. Everyone in my family kept commenting on the quality and comfort. It was nice to have homely accommodation while away especially during such a busy week."

"We were referred to Larkfield Apartments through the Richmond American International University website. The rates were comparible if not better than local hotels considering the amenities and proximity to public transportation.

Arthur was very responsive and accommodating to our specific needs. We loved that the bus stop and Richmond train station were just a short walk from the apartment. We had all the comforts of home, too: WiFi, kitchen, washer/dryer, etc.

We were offered a bigger apartment on the lower level but honestly our family of four was comfortable in the Studio Apartment. There was more than enough space for us in this quaint and cozy space.

The pillows and mattresses were comfortable and the linen and towels were fresh and clean. (I would recommend "fluffing" the towels in the dryer for a short time.) I was very grateful to be able to cook meals for my family everyday. Thank you for providing the basic pots/pans and utensils.

All in all I know our family will choose to stay at Larkfield Apartments (Studio) again the next time we come to Richmond. Many thanks!! Brian and Therese."

"Thank you Arthur!

This flat is a perfect place to stay in the Richmond area: comfortable, warm, very well equipped, friendly landlord, good Wi-Fi (my daughters were very grateful for this) and, of course, perfectly located close to buses, Richmond tube station and Richmond town centre!

We will like to come and stay again another time and will be recommending your place to friends seeking accommodation in Richmond.

Thanks again!
Barbara"

"This is an excellent choice for anyone needing close proximity to the Royal Ballet School. The location is very close to the station, walkable to all of Richmond’s sights and restaurants and is on a quiet, safe street. It was easy to get to central London’s main sights by train or underground. We appreciated Arthur’s excellent communication and the apartment is bright, secure, clean and comfortable for a family. We hope to stay here again."

"This was a wonderful vacation. The apartment was well equipped with all the things that we needed- pots and pans, towels etc. It is nice and quiet here. We had a wonderful visit with our sister who lives right around the corner. Thanks for a great time."

"Arthur was the perfect host. He greeted us at the front door. We began communicating with one another about 24 hours prior to our arrival. Arthur welcomed us and oriented us to the apartment. He went out of his way to personally print me some personal documents we needed. We had chosen Arthur’s apartment for the location near the Royal Ballet School in Richmond Park. We could not have been happier! The RBS shuttle bus pick-up/drop-off is literally 1.5 blocks from the apartment. Richmond station very close and convenient for catching the train or buses. We also enjoyed being able to cook our own meals. The kitchen had all we needed. We felt safe and comfortable. We would recommend this stay and hope to come again!"

"Thanks Arthur, I had a really great stay at number 19. Having this space allowed me to do my work with confidence. Such a help. Comfortable and cosy! Conslata
Happy Christmas!"

"(5/5). The apartment is well situated on a quiet residential road just a few minutes walk to Richmond train station and the centre of Richmond and within easy walking distance of Richmond Park and Kew Gardens. The apartment is roomy and well equipped. It is clean and Arthur has ensured that it is Covid compliant. Arthur was very helpful and easily contactable. I would have no hesitation in recommending the apartment for a stay in Richmond."

"(5/5). Arthur's place was perfect for our stay in Richmond, a great size apartment for the two of us and so close to everything - the train/underground; pubs and restaurants; grocery stores and Kew gardens... The apartment had everything we needed. Thanks Arthur."

"Amazing Flat Rental (5/5). Flat was clean, modern, and provided all we needed for our stay in Richmond. We had choice of cooking in the flat or enjoying nearby restaurants, and we did both. We utilized both bus and rail for our adventures around London. Arthur was tremendous in helping us move in."

"Great Location in Richmond (4/5 Rating). This spacious first floor apartment was in a quiet street yet very close to Richmond Station and shops. Ideal for transport on the train and underground to London, Kew Gardens, Wimbledon for example. The shops and services at Richmond were a short walk away. The apartment had good facilities including Wi-Fi, a well equipped kitchen and was warm and sunny."

"A great location. Very close to station and places to eat. Nicely set up. Had everything we needed. Nice bright living room."

"We have stayed here a few times over the years and keep returning because the flat is very comfortably set up and in a wonderful location. We have many friends in the area and it was a great base to catch up with them. Many thanks Arthur."

"Thank you. We really enjoyed our brief stay. Would recommend you to our friends."

"The first floor flat was an ideal base from which to visit our new grandson. Spacious, well-equipped and warm (even though it was freezing outside!). The mattresses were of a good quality and we enjoyed our stay. Arthur is welcoming host. We will no doubt be back."

"Arthur, you're a true gent and made all the difference. Thank you for being such an amazing host. All the best."

"Have been coming here many years now, so I really enjoy the flat, spacious and marvellous. Landlord is a very nice person as all his family. Flat is handy for amenities. No car, so have to walk or bus or tube."

"A wonderful stay and close to transport and town centre. Arthur was very helpful in explaining how to get about on our first day. Warm flat and very comfortable - could do with a bigger bed and a few hooks on the back of the bedroom door. If available we would like to stay again on our next visit."

"I have been staying with Arthur for 10 years. His homes are very comfortable with everything you need available and always clean and in good working order. He is always willing to help and easy to deal with. The rates are very good. This is my home away from home on business trips 4 times a year and my daughter loves it too."

"Second visit to the Larkfield Apartments. First in 2014 to the Twickenham house. Love staying here. Real home from home feeling, great amenities, and close to public transport and the Town Centre. Well looked after. If we have another UK visit, which I hope we do, we'll stay here again."

"Spacious, warm flat, in great location close to all amenities. Visitor parking vouchers available from Arthur and much appreciated. Bed was comfortable but a bit small! Will definitely consider for a re-visit! Thank You."

"We were so pleased with the flat. It made coming “home” after a long day of sightseeing a pleasure. Location couldn’t have been better. Would stay here again! Thank you Arthur!
Maria & Cal"

"Wonderful place to stay. Location is great. Lovely and warm, felt like a home away from home. Will definitely stay here again and will recommend to others. Thank you for sharing your home!
Regards Julie and John Pawson."

"Great location, especially for Masto (5) to watch all the trains going past while he helped wash the dishes. We had a family wedding at Petersham Nurseries and made Richmond our base for the week.

Spacious and light apartment with a full kitchen made coming home each day a pleasant experience.

(Not a criticism at all, but a couple of USB plugs or sockets would’ve been great)."

"Looks like we are the first visitors since the Covid Pandemic. The flat is perfect for us, everything we need. Arthur is a wonderful host. We plan to return in July. Thanks so much. G. & J. Gill."

"We have stayed in the flat at 25 Church Road several times through the years. It is always a wonderful place to stay. We are already looking forward to our next trip."

"Had a lovely stay! The apartment had everything we needed including some laundry powder for the washing machine. Close to London for sightseeing but away from the rush. Walked to the Orange Tree Theatre for an excellent evening's entertainment. Only the squeaky floor boards in front of the bedrooms need fixing. Thanks again."

"It is a fantastic apartment. So good viewing. So convenient transportation. We are so easy to go to Kew Gardens! Thanks a lot!"

"Another wonderful stay in Richmond and the comfort of 25 Church Road."

"Our family has stayed in Arthur's apartments many times. They are all conveniently located and definitely suit our needs. We have other family members who have stayed in his properties too when visiting England. We like to stay in Richmond. It is such a lovely part of London. I am sure we will arrange another visit soon."

"We have had the most wonderful stay here at 25 Church Road! It is the third time we've stayed in one of Arthur's accommodations - The first two being about ten years ago - and Arthur is the most thoughtful, accommodating and kind host! The apartment has everything we need, and the location is so convenient. Thank you Arthur, for truly making our holiday comfortable and giving us a great home away from home! We will most certainly be back (and not wait another ten years!)."

"This is the third time we have stayed in one of Arthur's properties. Arthur is invariably kind and helpful. This property has everything we need and is a perfect base for travelling around London and all over the UK. Thank you Arthur. Hope to see you again."

"Another lovely stay in Richmond. Fab location, 2 minutes to train, buses and shops. Lots of pubs, cafes. Flat is fully equipped, comfortable, light and spacious. Thank you Arthur for everything."

"Great accommodation, has all the facilities we required, comfortable beds and excellent proximity to trains and buses. The river was a short walk through town and a walk to Ham House is a must. Thank you Arthur for a warm welcome, we had a wonderful holiday. Regards."

"Mr Shipp is extremely considerate introducing facilities patiently. The apartment is comfortable near the train station. It is only few minutes to the High Street. Thanks for the warm welcome."

"Great accommodation. Excellent access to the tube into London and overground."

"We have once again enjoyed our stay at the Church Road apartment. The convenience to town and transportation will continue to bring us back again in the future. Mr Shipp is extremely accommodating, and easy to contact and work with."

"We have again enjoyed our stay at one of Arthur's Richmond properties. We always are pleased to have a very comfortable "home away from home" when visiting London. We look forward to our return."

"Warm, comfortable, light, spacious, well-equipped. All that we wanted. Arthur is a very welcoming and helpful owner - it's no wonder people come back to stay with him again. If you are ardent bus users, like us, this location is ideal; Kew Gardens, The National Archives, Hampton Court, Central London...

Recommendations: Pastries, tarts, quiches... Paul, The Quadrant Restaurant Chez Lindsay (excellent Breton food), Pub The Old Ship."

"Another phenomenal stay at one of your houses. Great location, greatly convenient, clean...everything available to get us going. Mr Shipp is extremely helpful and kind. See you soon."

"This is our second stay here. We love the town, apartment location, and ease to transportation. The apartment is definitely spacious for a family of 4 and even making dinner here was fun! Arthur is easy to contact and very responsive. Plus our flight was slightly delayed and immigration took forever...yet Arthur was very accommodating to our timing. We will definitely come back!"

"Great, convenient location and very accommodating lovely landlord Mr Shipp even let us park our car at his residence which was much appreciated. The flat was lovely and warm when we arrived too which was most welcome as it's been a very cold one! Thanks again."

"We always enjoy our stay here - the flat is so convenient and everything works!
Very convenient for tube, overland and bus. Also shops in easy walking distance.
No complaints - and such a pleasant landlord!!"

"Excellent location!
Management very accommodating, even for changes in booking.
Reasonable rates, especailly for location so close to town, station, shopping and restaurants."

"Great location, very comfortable."

"This is our second stay here. We had an amazing time again. The location is superb. Beautiful walks + great food. So close to all the amazing things in London too. The house was perfect for all, with enough space to relax. Not to forget there are great fans + AC for the hot weather!

See you next year!"

"We have had a great stay at Cambridge Road. Many good restaurants just a short distance away on Richmond Road - Greek, Italian, Thai, Indian - and just a short walk over the bridge are all the amenities of Richmond town centre.
(Caffe Paola on the right side over the bridge does great coffee!)

Thanks Arthur, we hope to be back."

"Perfect place for our family of 5! We enjoyed exploring the area + having easy access to London by train/tube. Richmond is a lovely town and was a wonderful introduction to England for us. Thank you so much Arthur! Gail, John, Jasper, Alice and Molly. P.S. Our kids were so happy to all have their own beds + the extra space."

"What a fantastic stay. So well equipped. You really had everything we needed. The location is superb. Cannot say enough how much we enjoyed it here. And the study was a great extra. Thank you for everything! See you again, Sara and family."

"Cambridge Road is in a great location with many facilities within easy walking distance. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here + took full advantage of local attractions (Richmond Park, Kew Gardens + restaurants).
I hadn't appreciated how accessible Cambridge Road would be when I booked. The house is comfortable, reasonably well appointed. The internet connection was excellent. Beds were comfortable.
I would recommend Cambridge Road for anyone looking for longer term accommodation in a great location."

"This is our first stay in Cambridge Road 5. What a lovely house! Thank you very much Arthur, for such a warm welcome. We had a very good stay in this place and we will recommend you to our family and friends. We probably will come again in this house because one week was not enough to visit all lovely places around. Thank you :)."

"This is our first time staying in 5 Cambridge Road. We have stayed in various serviced accommodation in Richmond and none will give you the space (outdoor and indoor) that this place has. Arthur is very accommodating and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you very much and I think we will return again sometime in the future! Thank you!"

"This is our 2nd stay in Cambridge Road but we have been also staying at the flat in Church Road for the past 6 years. It's like coming home. Arthur and Stefan always make us welcome and the places are nice and comfortable. We have recommended the stay for our friends in Germany and we come back again. Once again thanks to Arthur and Stefan."

"This is our 10th stay in 5 Cambridge Road and we are as always super happy with our stay. We highly recommend lunch at Petersham Nurseries, Vegan Pizza from Pizza Express and several nice meals from the Tides Cafe under the bridge. Thank you!:)
PS.: Already looking forward to our next stay!"

"This is the second time we stay in this house, and just that is a compliment!
Being former residents of the area, the house is conveniently placed between Richmond and St Margarets.
There's plenty of room for a family of five, and the house is well equipped with everything you could possibly need. I guess we will soon be back! Thank you!"

"I think this is our fourth stay in Cambridge Road. As always we have had a fabulous time. The house is so easy to stay in and such a fantastic location. Having a parking space is fabulous. Very cosy and for medium size families."

"We had a lovely stay. It was nice to have a nice house to come home to after a long day of sightseeing and visiting family and friends. I'm certain you will hear from us again the next time we are in London. Thank you Shipp family!"
