“Regency townhouse, now B&B, in the heart of Richmond known for its award-winning garden, love of art and antiques. Three large bedrooms exude comfort and classic style. Breakfast in the dining room or in the garden. Dinners can be arranged for groups. Charming find in a historic Yorkshire town.”

Hotel review

Behind an unpretentious facade lies this handsome Regency home, a treasure trove of family heirlooms and good antiques amassed by owners Tim Culkin and Austin Lynch. Leading down to a river, the imaginatively planted garden is full of colour and surprises, and not surprisingly has won a clutch of awards. Two of the three large, attractively furnished bedrooms overlook it. First-rate breakfasts and dinner parties for a minimum of 16.

"I’m tucked up by a roaring fire in a Regency drawing room densely packed with antiques and silver, porcelain and pictures, with whippets Bosie and Mr Pip curled up with me on the sofa."

Cool Place of the Day

"Millgate House is an extraordinary Georgian townhouse of lavish, theatrical elegance sitting above a magical, sheltered walled garden with views down to the River Swale and its waterfalls."
