The morning sun catches the stone walls and steeples of Richmond town just down the valley, while swifts wheel overhead and the Swale hums somewhere below.

This is a straightforward caravan and campervan park on the edge of one of the Yorkshire Dales' most handsome market towns — ideal if you're touring the Dales with an outfit and want somewhere calm to base yourself. Richmond's castle, cobbled marketplace and riverside walks are all close by, and you're well-placed for Swaledale, Wensleydale and the North York Moors beyond. Dog owners should check ahead, as policies may vary, and it's worth asking about campfires when you arrive if that matters to your plans.

Expect a no-frills setup — this isn't a bells-and-whistles site — but it's the location that counts here. Quiet, unshowy and functional, with the Dales on your doorstep and Richmond's charm a stone's throw away.
