Cloughton is a small village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, lying a few miles north‑west of Scarborough on the edge of the North York Moors and within easy reach of the Yorkshire coast. Its situation makes it popular with walkers and visitors exploring the moors and seaside, while locally the economy is a mix of farming, commuter households and small‑scale tourism and services.

Historically the village has agricultural roots, with lanes and older houses that hint at a long rural past and some Victorian‑era growth. Community life is centred on the parish church, pub and village hall, and residents generally describe a close‑knit, village atmosphere with regular local events and activities.
