'You have an old version of Adobe\'s Flash Player. visit www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer.'

There's so much to do on a weekend break at Richmond Gate. Take a short walk into the town of Richmond-upon-Thames and you will pass some exquisite antique and designer shops and the galleries of Richmond Hill. In the centre is Richmond Green, with its elegant Victorian theatre and beautiful riverside where you can take a boat trip along the Thames.

Hampton Court Palace and Kew Gardens (a World Heritage site) are close by, along with many other stately homes and gardens. Racing at Epsom, Sandown and Kempton Park, rugby at Twickenham and tennis at Wimbledon are also popular excursions when visiting the area.

Central London is just 7 miles from the hotel where you will find superb sightseeing, famous shopping streets and the most incredible choice of concerts and theatres, galleries and museums.
