  • 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).

What customers say

This adults-only, dog-friendly site is praised for its peace and quiet, spacious, level pitches, and convenient location close to the A1 and local village amenities. While many reviewers found the facilities basic but adequate and clean, some noted they could benefit from an update, with a new block under construction. A recurring theme is the 6-amp electrical hook-up, which some found limiting. Despite occasional issues with roadworks or a lack of personal contact, many visitors found it a great stopover or relaxing base and would return.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked Beautiful place, little shop ten minute walk away, peaceful and delightful. We will definately stay again. We were there on the may bank holiday (few too many flies) no ones fault, they didn't appear to be the munching kind so all was good. Pitches had plenty space and the shade under the trees (because it was so hot) was very welcoming. Such a lovely place. The shower and toilet were always clean, and the dish washing for all basic the water was boiling. Out name was on the board at the front for the van pitch, very organised and would recommend! X

Disliked There was only one shower with toilet for both men and women. It didnt really matter to us as we had a toilet in the van and wasnt bothered on timings for shower. (A small dislike) very minimal and it certainly didnt ruin anything! Will go again loved it !

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked Quiet, clean and within walking distance of the local village shop and pub. (10 mins)
This is our second time here and, like the first, was a pleasant stay. The weather helped (scorching) The site is just ideal for a holiday and we will visit again.

Disliked Nothing to note here.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked Easily accessible from the A1. Nice, easy walk in to the village. The Crown pub for a nice pint and the village shop for anything you may need.
The caravan site is easy to find and pitching up is a doddle. Pitches are allocated by the owners and you'll see your name and your pitch number on the board as you enter the site.
The facilities are perfect. There are 2 toilet blocks although we only used the lower block as that is where we were pitched.
We’ve already booked for the August bank holiday so you make of that what you will.
This is a gem of a site which we would highly recommend.
There is a regular bus service into Richmond although we tend to stay on site so didn’t use the bus although we will next time.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked We booked very last minute but had an instant reply from the owner with our pitch number. Spacious pitches, really peaceful site, we slept so well. Nice walks from the site.

Disliked Only slight negative is there is only 1 toilet / shower for men and 1 for women so I imagine it would be busy in peak season.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi, just to clarify, there is another toilet block at the other end of the site with 2 mens toilets/showers and the same for women - you wouldn't have necessarily seen it. And we are in the process of building a new toilet and shower block which will hopefully be ready by July. Glad you enjoyed your stay :)

This was the first night in our new motorhome I’d defo stay again

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.
