About Wendy Waghorn

Wendy worked in the Fashion Industry as a Fashion Buyer in London and around the world for over 20 years, moving on to interiors buying and interior design. Graham worked for the BBC as a Director of Photography and then freelance Film unit, so they bought this apartment for when they were working in London

Wendy Waghorn purchased this apartment in 2008
Why Wendy Waghorn chose Richmond & Kew

They both love this area, as Wendy owned a fabulous Houseboat about 200 yards up The River Thames,so when this property came up, beside the River and next door to Hampton Court, they jumped at it. Whats not too like!It is also a very old building steeped in history, yet it has been modernised in a contemporary way. Giving the best of both worlds, and a super power shower!

What makes this apartment unique

Location, Location,Location.

Sitting on the patio, enjoying the view of the River and the beautiful gardens with a glass of wine. Perfect.

I could not have found a better place to stay while I was on my course at Hampton Court. Perfectly positioned and perfectly set up, I enjoyed my stay tremendously. I will definitely be back.

Great Apartment and Location (10 Days)

5 of 5
Submitted: April 20, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
Rotary Court near Hampton Court Palace provided my wife and I with a cozy, modern, and quiet apartment with a view of the Thames River. The beds are very comfortable. The appliances are all modern and working well. The bathroom has all up-to-date facilities.

Rotary Court allowed us to avoid the expense and stress of renting a car. Tip: At Heathrow Airport, we each bought a Visitor's Oyster Card that we could use on all London modes of transportation (bus, train, subway, ferry).

Rotary Court allowed us to walk to local shops (grocery, restaurants, cafes, fish and chips, pharmacies, doctors, etc.): to reach nearby (but not walkable) areas by bus (Kingston, Richmond, Key Gardens, National Archives, etc.), and to walk to the Hampton Court Rail Station where we could reach any town or city in.Southeast England easily (London, Windsor, Guildford, Portsmouth, etc).

In summary, we found Rotary Court the ideal apartment for our activities and would return again.

Couldn't recommend more highly

My husband and I have been lucky enough to stay at Rotary Court for several weeks since our house move was delayed. The apartment is in the most wonderful location with easy access to Kingston and London (among many other destinations) by bus or train and close to the M3 and A3 too. The restaurants and small, unique shops of Bridge Street particularly have been great and we can highly recommend the Thai, Indian, Lebanese and Italian restaurants all within a few minutes walk plus the tea rooms at Hampton Court or the cafes and pubs by the river. There's even a Marks and Spencer in the BP garage nearby. Easy access to Bushy Park, the river footpath to Kingston and beyond, Hampton Court Palace and Home Park have all made our stay even more enjoyable.
For anyone not familiar with the area it's worth mentioning that the apartment is a very short walk to the overground railway station with excellent services to London and a bus stop is right outside the front door serving the surrounding area. Despite this, because the apartment is overlooking the river and glorious gardens, it is very quiet - no traffic noise can be heard at all. If you're here at the same time we were you might like to enjoy ice skating at Hampton Court or even the services in the Hampton Court Chapel. Or the year round open air swimming pool in Hampton or the choice of local theatres in Hampton (a small theatre) Kingston (The Rose) or Richmond Theatre. The Rose and Richmond show mainstream performances often prior to the West End.

The apartment itself is very comfortable and is fully equipped to a very high standard - the owner has accommodated our every request promptly and efficiently and made us very welcome. We do not hesitate to recommend Rotary Court and will be sad to leave.

Stylish boutique apartment in an amazing location

5 of 5
Submitted: October 30, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
My husband, son and I had a very enjoyable stay at Rotary Court. We were travelling from Hong Kong and decided to choose an apartment over our usual choice of a hotel. What a good decision!

Wendy was very efficient handling the booking and all the questions we had, we arrived to find a thoughtful gift, fresh flowers and a well-equipped apartment just a stone's throw from Hampton Court Palace. We were spoilt for choice when it came to dining, we spent some evenings exploring the interesting pubs and restaurants nearby, as well as cooking at the apartment itself. The kitchen is equipped with all the utensils that you would need, as well as a large oven and microwave. Everything looked shiny and new.

The apartment itself was very clean and modern, despite the traditional character of the building. The neighbours were friendly and it was great being able to park our car in secure parking at the back of the building, which incidentally has a view of the river and the well-manicured gardens. We always looked forward to going back to a warm and cosy apartment in the evening. By the same token, we imagine it would be very relaxing to sit on the outside patio with a glass of wine admiring the views when the weather is warmer.

We would love to come back again if we had the chance, there were so much nice touches about our stay, from the hospitality extended by Wendy and Graham from start to finish, to the wonderful apartment itself!

Wonderful London Alternative

5 of 5
Submitted: October 8, 2012 Stayed: September 2012
This Thames-side studio apartment across the road from Hampton Court Palace provides a relaxing, convenient alternative to staying in congested central London. Everything is still easily reached by bus of train, with stations only steps away, but you return to a magnificent garden setting with your own shaded patio and chairs where you feel you are enjoying the best of scenic Britain. While compact, the apartment has everything you need for comfortable sleeping, showering and making your own meals when you want to relax from touring and watch the latest, news, drama or movie on the wide range of available channels. There's a wide choice of grocery stores and restaurants within walking distance and fine shopping in Kingston-on-Thames only five minutes away by bus, or 45 minutes cruise by ferry along The Thames in season. Best of all is the sensitive and warm attention of your hosts, Wendy and Graham, who will arrange for an ex-BBC friend to pick you up or deliver you to Heathrow Airport for a very competitive fare. All of these fine benefits also make the apartment a convenient and relaxing choice as a base if you are in London on business. A special thanks to Wendy for the all the thoughtful furnishing and convenient supplies which greet your arrival.
Owner's Response: Thank you Doug for this brilliant review,It was a pleasure having you stay. One of the things I enjoy about renting our apartment out is the interesting people we meet. It never ceases to amaze me the different holidays that people take and how far they travel i.e. in your case Canada. After your trip around Europe as well I am really glad we were able to make your stay comfortable and relaxing. Kind regards, Wendy
