in the heart of Hambleton
Farlington is a small, picturesque farming village in the Hambleton district of North Yorkshire.
The village has a 12th century church, St. Leonards, a good pub, the Blacksmith’s Arms, and has a small stream, Farlington Beck running through it.
Farlington is ideally situated for a walk in the Hambleton Hills, a visit to Castle Howard, a day out in the historic city of York, or the market town of Malton.
