Richmond Area Guide

Not just one of the Capital’s smiliest areas – Richmond was named London's happiest borough and the second nationally – but arguably one of its prettiest, Richmond’s riverbank position is paired with a village-like charm that casts a spell on anyone who visits. Lying on the tip of southwest London, this picturesque spot has it all: not one but two Royal Parks, an abundance of natural beauty, some of London’s most famous landmarks, and a thriving food scene. With its sprawling parks, boutique-lined streets, and calming waterside spots, Richmond is perfect for those who cannot decide between countryside and city living.

Richmond boasts the famous Turner view, a breathtaking panorama immortalised by J.M.W. Turner. This stunning riverside landscape, with its golden sunsets and rolling meadows, offers an unrivalled backdrop for everyday life.
