Church Houses is a hamlet in Farndale, North Yorkshire, England.
The hamlet is best known for being the starting/finishing point of the daffodil walks that people undertake in the valley in late March/early April. Farndale is renowned for its daffodils which grow in the valley in their thousands. The hamlet has a pub, the Feversham Arms, an old school house (now converted into a private dwelling), and just east of the hamlet, is the Church of St Mary, which is grade II listed.
The hamlet is within the civil parish of Farndale East Side, and is represented at Westminster as part of the Thirsk and Malton Constituency. A public bus service runs in spring in conjunction with the blooming of daffodils in the valley, otherwise, the nearest Moorsbus service runs to the east of the hamlet past the Lion Inn and Blakey Ridge.
