Arncliffe is a small village and civil parish in Littondale, tucked into the limestone landscape of the Yorkshire Dales National Park in North Yorkshire, England. The compact settlement sits by the River Skirfare amid steep-sided pastures and scars, making it a popular base for walkers exploring the surrounding dales and nearby features such as Malham Cove.
The village retains a core of traditional stone cottages, a medieval parish church, St Oswald's Church, and an attractive packhorse bridge; many buildings are listed and the area still shows a strong farming heritage, chiefly sheep farming. Tourism, holiday accommodation and the close-knit local community now play a significant part in village life, preserving a sense of rural history and everyday country living.
