Motorhome Stopovers in Richmond

Richmond sits above the River Swale in North Yorkshire — though historically and administratively tied to the wider Durham and Yorkshire border country — at the point where Swaledale opens out toward the Vale of York. The A1(M) is around 5 miles to the east, making it a straightforward pull-off for motorhomers on the Great North Road, while the B6270 leads west up Swaledale into the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The town is well known for its Norman castle, cobbled market square, and the Georgian Theatre Royal.
