  • 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

A quiet, adults-only site with clean, well-maintained facilities and spacious pitches. Located conveniently close to a village with a pub and shop, it's ideal for exploring the local area. Some minor issues noted with limited shower/toilet facilities for the site size, and occasional road noise.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked Site was clean and very well maintained. Pitches were level and a good size. Toilet and shower were also clean and well maintained. There was a good sized washing up area.

Disliked There was only one female toilet and shower. The shower and toilet would be better if in 2 separate units rather than just the one unit.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we are in the process of having a brand new shower block built for the future, :-))

Bethany M.

Electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked Had a lovely stay at Millfields Camping park. Great location, plenty of places to walk and drive to from the site. Small quiet site.

Disliked We would have benefited from a space to let the dogs off the lead.

Limited shower facilities.

Unfortunately pitched right next to the toilets - disruptive during the night due to noise and lights from facilities

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Glad you enjoyed your stay with us, we are having a new shower/toilet block built so will be better for next season. :-)

Very Good Site. M1 Quite Noisy Though.

Sally S.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Clear instructions as to where to pitch. Adults only. Nice big pitches, with plenty of space. Very clean toilets and showers. Despite the site being full and only having two toilets and one shower per sex (in the main area), there was never a queue. Plenty of hot water for washing, showers and in the washing up area. Apart from the noise from the A1, relatively quiet. Nice site to do some cycling from. Close to plenty of nice towns and villages. Hopefully be back soon.

Disliked Road noise from the M1, which seemed to go on 24 hours.

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.
