BRAWBY GRANGE C/L – MALTON [79]




TUESDAY 24th JUNE – SATURDAY 28th JUNE 2008.
As you approach this site the roads get narrower and narrower although they did not present a problem to my outfit that must be around 35 ft long. Oncoming traffic can be seen and there are plenty of places to pass.

The property appears to be a farmhouse that the owners are modernising and the c/l is in a large well mown orchard behind the house. There is an additional area off the main field that could be used for rallies if required. The ground is basically level although it is slightly undulating; however it is large enough to find a level area. It was popular during my stay and I would advise pre-booking to avoid disappointment. Apart from the usual facilities of fresh water and chemical disposal there is a WC and a dedicated disposal point for grey water. It is obvious the owners take great pride in their c/l and even provide a washing line and pegs for anyone that requires them. The lawn mower must have cost a fortune and even cleans up after itself. Helps prevent walking those grass cuttings into your van. I did not notice a bus service in the immediate area, but there is a pub in Great Barugh about a mile away.

Malton is the main town in the area and is typical of the market towns found in North Yorkshire with all types of shops and a few supermarkets. There is also a bus and rail station in the town centre.

During my stay I chose to visit Nunnington Hall and Eden Camp but there is plenty to do in the immediate area with Flamingo Land and The North Yorkshire Moors Railway not far away.
