  • 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).

Peaceful, adults-only site with spacious pitches, ideal for exploring Richmond and countryside. Guests like the self-check-in and local pub/shop access. Basic older facilities are now much improved by a new, modern shower block.

Liked Pooly sign posted needs a sign at the end of the narrow road would be helpful.
Basic amenities not for me. Could do with updating. No wonder the place was empty. I will not return

From the manager: We are sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay at Millfields. Your review suggests that your experience of Millfields was significantly different to that of other customers staying at the same time, some further information to enable us to make changes if they are required would have been helpful.

Powered concrete and grass site

Liked Gorgeous small campsite with well spaced out pitches. Very quiet. New toilet and shower block is stunning! Even the old green toilet/shower block was spotless. Very friendly and helpful staff.
Lovely walks from the site.

Disliked Would be so helpful to have a plug socket / shelf/mirror in your new block so us girlies can dry our hair

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Appreciate your thought process however in a public shower/toilet space having a socket is a big 'no' as far as all the legislation is concerned

Fantastic place, very helpful. 👍…

Liked Great site out 2nd stay and it was lovely.
Short walk to the pub and on a good bus route. Found some lovely walks near by down next to the river.

Didn't realise not all pitches have a tap so was awkward having to fill the motorhome at the communal tap.
We got to sample the new toilet block which was good but I think so changes will come in time. There was only one shower with a window to open as no extractor in any of the rooms. This made getting dressed difficult as my glasses would not demist. Ended up showering in the moho for ease.
Pitch was nice and level.

Disliked We booked this as it's an adult only site but we did see a family camping further up the field they caused no bother but wasn't what we expected to see.
We did find people approached our pitch to ask questions as pitch 4 is next to the entrance board and there is no one on site.

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.
