Arkendale is a small rural village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, lying a few miles from the spa town of Harrogate and close to Knaresborough. It occupies gently rolling agricultural land and is characterised by stone-built houses, farmsteads and a network of public footpaths that make it popular with walkers and people seeking quiet countryside.
Locally the economy remains largely agricultural, with many residents commuting to nearby towns for work; social life is centred on traditional village institutions such as the parish church and village hall. Historic features survive in a number of older buildings and field patterns, giving the place a lived-in rural character rather than any strong commercial or tourist profile.
