Tarvin is a large village and civil parish in Cheshire West and Chester, England, set on the gently rolling Cheshire Plain roughly six miles east of Chester. It sits close to the small River Gowy and is surrounded by farmland, giving it a distinctly rural feel while benefitting from good road links that make it popular with commuters to nearby centres.
Tarvin has medieval roots and a compact centre with a notable parish church, several listed buildings and a traditional high street of shops and pubs; the village once held market rights and expanded in the Victorian era. The local economy mixes agriculture, small businesses and services, and the community is active with village groups, annual events and efforts to conserve its historic character.
