On the northern banks of the River Swale, east of Richmond, is the village of Brompton-on-Swale. The settlement name, which appears in the Domesday Book, is said to have come from the old English words "broom" (the shrub) and "tun," which imply farmstead or village. A traditional bar and a village store can be found in the area today. Pleasant strolls can be taken around the hamlet and along the river. Three miles away is the historic market town of Richmond, which preserves nearly nine centuries of active history and distinctive character in its cobblestoned streets and little lanes, or "wynds." The town was founded around the castle, a 1071-year-old Norman fortress. The Castle Walk, a stunning terrace walk beneath the castle walls, and the River Swale Path, which features parks, safe paddling spots, and small waterfalls, are just two of the fantastic hikes Richmond offers today. Brompton-on-Swale is ideally situated for exploring this picturesque area because it is sandwiched between the Yorkshire Dales and Yorkshire Moors National Parks.

    The remaining bathrooms were baths with hand held shower heads. The sofa in main living room has collapsed. The number on the contact details is for a previous employee. Kitchen has lots of stuff but two pots and a mixture of plates most of which don’t fit in the dishwasher as they are serving dishes. The hot water system was not adequate for number of beds

  • Veronica

    Also we asked for all beds to be made up and we had to make up the bed in one of the rooms. There was not enough hot water for everyone to have a shower. I would not recommend this home to anyone to stay. It felt cold and musty in the living room. One of the toilets was broken and there was a note about this in the book, this is so bad, instead of leaving a note just fix the toilet!

  • Joanne

    Such an amazing place, with all the amenities you could think of included. Clean and comfortable and decorated to a very high standard. The property owner was a lovely guy and always on hand to help out if needed. Will definitely be back again!
