Brough

Motorhome Stopovers in Brough

Brough is a small market town in the Eden Valley in Cumbria, sitting on the A66 — the main trans-Pennine route between the M6 at Penrith and Scotch Corner on the A1. The town stands near the confluence of the rivers Swindale Beck and the Eden, just south of the Stainmore Pass. Brough Castle, a ruined medieval fortification, overlooks the town from a prominent position. It’s classic upland England — open moorland, fast-changing weather, and good access to the North Pennines AONB.

For motorhomers, Brough’s position on the A66 makes it a natural overnight stop between the Lake District and North Yorkshire. Motorhome Stopover Club members share verified overnight stops in the area, saving you from pushing on tired when a decent stop is close at hand.
