THINGS TO DO
Richmond upon Thames’s blend of country life and city living is highly desired, not just for families, but for affluent buyers looking for Thames basin views and access to the area’s stunning Royal Parks.
Naturally, Richmond’s well-known attractions welcome tourists and visitors to the area, but quieter spots can be found where the locals dwell. Independent shops sit side by side with larger stores, providing all the amenities you could need without travelling to central London.
Richmond Park is the largest Site of Special Scientific Interest in London.

Rustic country pubs with dog-friendly beer gardens are ideal for resting weary legs and soaking up the views, while in town, much-loved family bistros make for enjoyable weeknight suppers.
There’s also an impressive variety of elegant fine dining options for weekends and special occasions, including the Michelin-starred Glasshouse, Dysart Petersham and Bingham Riverhouse Hotel.
