Nunnington is a small village and civil parish in Ryedale, North Yorkshire, set within the rolling landscape of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The settlement sits by the meanders of the River Rye, offering pleasant riverside walks and a notably tranquil rural character within easy reach of market towns such as Helmsley.

Its most striking landmark is Nunnington Hall, a well-preserved country house with gardens in the care of the National Trust that attracts visitors and supports a modest local tourism economy alongside traditional farming. The parish retains a strong sense of history in its stone cottages and former mill buildings, and is popular with walkers, artists and anyone seeking a quiet slice of North Yorkshire countryside.
