Settrington is a small village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, formerly in the Ryedale district. It sits on the western edge of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is within easy reach of the North York Moors and the Yorkshire coast, giving it a quietly attractive rural setting of rolling farmland, stone cottages and narrow lanes.
Historically agricultural, the village still has working farms and a modest, close‑knit community centred on the parish church and village hall; many residents now commute to nearby market towns such as Malton or work in rural tourism. Settrington’s appeal is its peaceful countryside character and access to local walking and cycling routes rather than any large-scale commercial activity.
