An excellent site to pitch your tent at whilst on the C2C walk. A clean modern shower block and what seemed to be well stocked on site shop. We arrived about 830pm but were still welcomed in, would stay here again even if I never do the walk again.
We visited Brompton on Swale campsite for the second time in May this year. It's a lovely site with a wonderful buzz about it that really makes you feel like you're on holiday.
We stayed in a pod which was centrally heated (lovely as it was cold) and faced out to the river making it feel secluded even on a large busy site. With us, we had our 3 dogs (my sister had one in her pod with her as it's a limit of 2 per pod).
There is a lovely walk through woods and farm tracks, through Easby and into Richmond where we stopped and got food and an ice cream before walking back. Very enjoyable and handy if you have a larger vehicle like a motorhome and want to walk rather than drive.
There is a huge TESCO a short drive away at Catterick Garrison alongside Pound Stretcher and a few other smaller shops - very useful if you've forgotten anything.
The facilities are a little outdated I feel (e. G. The hand drier takes a long time to dry your hands) but they are clean and well kept all the same.
We absolutely loved the food from the take away and the facility to text your order and then collect is brilliant. You can expect to pay a bit more than from your bog standard takeaway but the food is tasty and freshly cooked. Unfortunately, we didn't get chance to try the takeaway breakfast.
The on site shop is handy and sells all the necessities for reasonable prices (as far as camp site shops are concerned).
The last time we went, we walked down to the river and let the dogs have a swim and a paddle which they really enjoyed. There were lots of people down there paddling in the sun.
The only downside of this visit, which really isn't the fault of the site, was the children that were running around. Last time we went there were also lots of children and it was quite noisy during the day but this was not a problem as they were playing in the play areas. This time, however, they kept coming around the front of our pods and riding past my dog, who was teathered outside in the sunshine, until one ran over her lead on his bike and pinned her to the floor. Luckily, she is a good natured dog and kicked her legs out to push him away rather than snapping. However, I was upset that she was put in a position where her head was jerked and she could not move. A few minutes later, a different group of children let themselves into our camping pod! (We were sat out the front of my sister's pod at the time). I'm not sure how the site could help this but I do think the area around the front of the camping pods should be for exclusive use by those using them.
In all, I love this site and will be back in the near future!
We (family of 4, 2 children) and our dog stayed in one of the glamping pods at £40 a night, which turned out to be really good value for money. You get electric, a heater (which we didn't need) and it provided the perfect little base for us to relax in and sleep in.
The campsite itself is about 5 minutes drive from Richmond. If you're wanting to visit somewhere with a supermarket, shops etc then it's ideal, you can even (as we did on both days) walk through the woods past Easby Abbey up to Richmond - 4 miles or so walk and very pleasant. The walk back was too much for our 2 young boys so we caught a bus back which stops right outside the campsite (number 34 from Richmond town centre).
There is a shop on-site which has basic supplies but I wouldn't rely on it for your day to day living, but stocks enough to see you by. The shop is open all day but shuts at 5pm.
There is a takeaway on-site too which is open Wed-Sun from 5pm-8pm, we ate there on the last night and it was very nice indeed. Not priced over the top and the range of options was good for us, nothing to complain about at all.
Every member of staff we talked to and asked questions was only too happy to help, we felt very welcome.
Plenty of fresh water stations around, toilets, showers - all very clean and well looked after. The small children's park there was always busy and well looked after too, our boys loved it, as well as a couple of football goals nearby to have a kick around with.
Overall very impressed with the location, the actual grounds, surrounding areas, amenities - we'll definitely be going back!
Just returned from our first visit to this site and I have to say how much of a fabulous te we had
On arrival at the site we were escorted to our pitch and helped to manoeuvre our van into position over looking the river. Beautiful views
The staff could not have been more helpful throughout our stay and were able to direct us to locations when asked.
On speaking to who we thought was a staff member who was out litter picking about the possibility of storing our van for a couple of weeks so that we could book a return visit rather than bringing it home he was friendly and advised us to visit the office, which we did only to find out he was actually the site manager and he waxucki. G I with the staff to ensure the site maintained it high level of cleanliness
You do need a 20. 00 cash deposit for the toilet key and barrier fob the toilets were always clean.
On site takeaway was only open for limited hours and the shop was a little sparsely stocked although it is licensed to sell alcohol but shuts at 5pm
Richmond is only a short drive should you need provisions out if hours.
Fishing is available on site but nearest maggot retailer was richmond but hubby enjoyed many hours fishing
I have to say this is one of the most restful holidays we have had in the can and we are looking forward to our return visit in a few week
Just returned from a 2 night weekend break here. On site staff could not be more helpful, took us to our pitch and even unhooked and straightened us up on the pitch. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. A little shop on the grounds with a wide range of sweets for the kids kept them quiet (apologies to the shop keepers I can imagine the 5 kids we took would have been full of questions. 'if I buy this how much will I have left'). The toilets were clean and well kept, with all the other facilities needed close by sinks, waste disposal etc. We had a lovely walk into Richmond only a short 2 mile away, if you could read a map, we enjoyed our 10 mile round trip none the less.
Overall a very good site I would recommend to anyone, and will be returning to myself.
Just returned from great weekend at this camp site. Staff very friendly and polite, helped pitch caravan. Toilets a little dated but clean. Nice walk into Richmond along riverbank. Was not impressed with takeaway on site. Clean and well maintained grass /hard standing pitches. Recommend requesting pitch over looking river
This site is very nice, toilets nice and clean, staff very friendly, lots of room to move, although takeaway is only open on weekends out of school holidays it is worth trying, we tried a few meals and found the pizza very nice and a lot cheaper than other takeaways we have tried also the breakfast is very nice and very good value, it is a walk into Richmond along the road and a short walk into the village with a pub and shop. Site has a children's playground.
The site looks good on paper, but do not be fooled, it is an extremely cramped, noises, dirty site.
Caravans and awnings are no more than 8ft apart just enough for your car, which kids run past as a short cut, the men's toilet block had 4 cubicles, one did not flush, one had no paper and one looked like it had not been cleaned in ages. The on site takeaway did not open on weekdays, and the dog walk area is only accessible via a steep gravel covered bank which if you were in any way disabled could prove a hazard especially coming back down, the dog run itself was along side the fast moving main road with gaps in the fence which would allow dogs to escape onto the road. We were told (not asked) to vacate the awning and sit in the caravan after 12 at night, we asked why as we were only talking softly with no music playing, the night warden told us to stop being arsey or we would be ordered off the site immediately.
During the day several families were yelling and swearing despite the no bad behaviour rule but there were no wardens around to keep the noise level down. The brochure claims a family friendly games room which was shut, the rubbish bins were overflowing and smelly, we had to pay a £20 deposit for the toilet block/gate key, if you came back from a trip out after 12 at night the wardens stood watching and listening ready to pounce if you made a slight noise, the day staff who sat in the office were pleasant and helpful, but the exit from the site is very steep at the barrier, and if it is raining there is a danger you will spin the wheels if taking your caravan out. If you need the disabled toilet you have to get the key from reception, which is a stupid idea as the disabled person may not be able to cover the distance twice, I. E. From the caravan to the office from the office to the toilet from the toilet to the office from the office to the caravan, why not fit a radar lock every disabled person can have or should have their own key. The overall feeling is that this site is overpriced for the available facilities, vans way to close and the general tidiness and maintenance is poor, alright for a quick stop over but would nor recommend it for a good holiday
Lovely site, great shower/ toilet facilities, Our Daughter liked the park. We loved the area, fab walks and the man in the shop was very helpful. Thought they missed a trick with the shop, it could be a real buzzing asset to the site, cheap and cheerful, more wine choice, local produce, cheap ice cream to keep the kids happy. Loved the site and a great area.
Good site near the lovely village of Osmotherly and on the edge of North Yorks Moors. Very helpful staff, good comprehensive facilities, convenient for Coast to Coast. Good cafes in village in walking distance and restaurant right by site. Only snag, the code on the electronic gate never worked for us on the way out!
Stayed here for 2 nights for the first time and we were very impressed. The warden was friendly and helpful. The pitch we were allocated was perfect, right next to the river with easy access. The toilet/shower blocks are very well maintained. Clean and warm.
The children's play park was good and plenty of space for football when we were there.
The on site shop was great and we were able to refreeze our ice packs.
The site is 5 minutes drive from Catterick so we popped into the caravan and camping shop for a look around.
We stayed here for a weekend and will definitely return here with friends. Never been before and taken to our pitch, looking out of my caravan window onto the river about 50 meters away was fantastic. The site was packed when we got there and when we left I realised that I'd heard no screaming children or adults all weekend, it was really quiet, everyone doing whatever they wanted but not rowdy.
Showers were lovely and warm but could do with being updated, kids playpark was ok, but with the river being there I was showing my kids how I used to play and climb trees.
I think it's a great place for next year. Friends in their tents and me in my caravan, excellent.
I have stayed at this site a few times now and will definitely keep going back.
The staff are really friendly and knowledgeable, they even helped me set my tent up last time!
The site itself is lovely, well maintained and in a great location. The river swale runs the full length of the site and is great for the kids when the weather is nice. The play area has had a facelift since last year and has good facilities for the kids.
Toilets & showers are well maintained and the shop and take away are handy with good opening hours.
The site is situated next to a river and in a lovely scenic area.
Also a few minutes from the market town of Richmond.
We arrived mid week to a very peaceful park. On site is a shop and takeaway (takeaway only open thurs, fri and sat nights and for a couple hours on sat and sun mornings).
There is a decent sized play park for the younger children and a games room. We didn't go in side but there looked to be some arcade games and a pool table.
The toilet block is clean but in need of updating. The showers were always hot.
The dish washing up are located next to the toilet block.
The shop carries everyday essentials and the prices are a bit higher than supermarkets.
The staff are friendly and helpful and escorted us to our pitch which was situated on the 'island'.
Now for the negative bits. We returned from an afternoon out (a Friday) to find a caravan pitched behind ours. It was too close to our awning! We felt that we had lost some of our privacy as they could see straight into our caravan (and vice versa).
The site was also very noisy as several people had music on and seemed to be out doing each other volume wise.
All in all we were a bit disappointed in the parks response to the the noise level as it didn't quiet down at advised time, which is 10. 30pm!
Very friendly, helpful staff. The park grounds are beautiful, very well maintained. The location is ideal for access to exploring the area with some great walks and of course the river runs through the park which is good if you like fishing. Toilet blocks were very clean and park facilities were good. Great games room with arcade machines and pool tables. Food from the on site takeaway was very good. All in all a very well organised and managed park. It's clear the owners have invested a lot of time, money and effort into creating a excellent family holiday park.
