Great Ouseburn is a small village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England, tucked into the gentle agricultural landscape of the Vale of the upper Ouse catchment. It has a compact core of stone houses and a parish church that hint at medieval origins, with lanes, hedgerows and footpaths that make it popular with walkers and those seeking a countryside base within easy commuting distance of York and Harrogate.

Traditionally a farming community, the local economy now mixes agriculture with small businesses and commuters, and village life is kept lively by a primary school, a village hall and occasional fetes and community groups. The area attracts interest for its tranquil rural character, historic buildings and access to riverside and country walks rather than for any single tourist attraction.
