Harome is a small village and civil parish in the Ryedale district of North Yorkshire, set in the gently rolling limestone countryside of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the North York Moors. The settlement sits beside the valley carved by the River Riccal and lies within easy reach of the market town of Helmsley, giving it a quietly rural yet well-connected feel.
The village has a strong sense of history and local identity, with many stone cottages and a church dating from the 19th-century period of estate improvements that shaped much of its present character. Agriculture remains important to the local economy, supplemented by tourism and outdoor recreation as walkers and cyclists use the lanes and rights of way linking to the surrounding AONB and country houses such as Duncombe Park. Community life is typical of a small North Yorkshire village, centred on a village hall, occasional markets and local events that keep the social fabric close-knit.
