Marsett is one of 3 settlements in around Semer Water in Raydale, a small side dale off Wensleydale in North Yorkshire, England. Marsett is only a hamlet and lies to the south-west of the lake, at a point where a smaller side dale, Bardale, joins Raydale.

The village of Marsett, with Wether Fell in the distance, as seen from Stalling Busk.

The hamlet consists of two farms and ten permanent dwellings, together with a number of holiday cottages.[1] There is also a Methodist chapel, built in 1897.[2]

The name, first recorded in 1283 as Mouressate, is from the Old Norse Maures sætr, meaning 'the shieling of a man named Maurr' (a nickname meaning 'ant').[3]
