  • Adults-only site 10 minutes’ drive from Richmond in North Yorkshire
  • Catterick Racecourse five minutes’ drive; Easby Abbey 40 minutes’ walk
  • Dog-friendly pitches; Brompton on Swale pub and shop 10 minutes’ walk
For a quiet adults-only North Yorkshire stay far removed from the hurly burly of everyday life, Millfields Caravan and Camping is a tiny site tucked away in Brompton on Swale, a historic village mentioned in the Domesday Book. Peaceful it certainly is, yet there’s masses to do and see hereabouts. The lively market town of Richmond is 10 minutes’ drive away, with its photogenic Georgian architecture, museums, a castle and lots of entertainment options from cosy inns to chic restaurants. It’s also gateway to adventures in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, and any keen racing fans among you have the choice of nine major racecourses: York is an hour’s drive, Wetherby 40 minutes, and Catterick a doddle to get to, being a mere five minutes away. And back on site, the manicured pitches look out over lush countryside (great for walking any dogs you've brought along), with simple facilities including showers and washing-up areas. If you choose to conjure up alfresco feasts on the barbecue, pick up essentials in the handy local shop, or you can always head to the village pub for a pint and a pie (both 10 minutes’ walk).

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Superb small extremely peaceful site surrounded by countryside yet only a 10 minute walk from a convenient shop and lovely friendly pub. A short drive from the beautiful historic county town of Richmond and in an area offering a wonderful variety of walks and hikes
The toilet/shower block is spotless and the pitches are extremely generous and flat.
The owners are very friendly and helpful so for me its the perfect site to enjoy tranquil camping.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked Quiet, level site, spotless toilet and shower, 10 mins walk from good pub (serving decent food) and well-stocked shop.
Easy access to and from A1

Disliked New toilet/shower block not yet open, so considerable pressure on the single male and female toilet and shower! And, although Richmond and Easby Abbey are only a couple of miles away, it’s a walk along a busy road without a pavement.

Liked Very friendly and helpful welcome from Matt. Lots of room to choose a pitch and so a nice quiet camping experience.
Nice attention to detail and had a more homely and individual feel to the set up rather than something more 'corporate'

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The quiet atmosphere,tidy, close to all the places we wanted to visit.

Disliked Just a suggestion for improvement I would have liked som shelves and a bech in the shower rooms, so that you have anywhere to put your clothes and stuff while taking a shower or change clothes.

Local attractions

Stroll directly from your pitch to the spectacular hilltop ruins of 12th-century Easby Abbey (40 minutes’ walk), or have a ramble along the River Swale to Richmond Castle and the pebble beach at Richmond Falls (both roughly an hour). And of course, there are hikes and cycle rides for all levels of ability in the Yorkshire Dales National Park (15 minutes’ drive). Head to Foxglove Covert Local Nature Reserve (20 minutes) for the chance to spy birds of prey and kingfishers in the moorland, meadow and wetland habitats, or if stately houses are on your agenda, combine exploring formal gardens and a lakeside park at Jacobean-era Kiplin Hall (10 minutes) with a tour of the mansion’s richly decorated rooms. The likelihood is you’ll adore fussing over the camels, llamas and ostriches at Mainsgill Farm Shop (15 minutes), where you can also tuck into a tasty cream tea. Should the weather turn against you, book tickets for blockbuster films at The Station or tour Richmond’s restored Georgian Theatre Royal (both 10 minutes), still with its original stage and seating.
