Kettlewell Meadows is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI)[1][2] within Yorkshire Dales National Park, in North Yorkshire, England. It is located in Wharfedale between the villages of Starbotton and Kettlewell. It is protected because of the botanically rich floodplain grassland maintained by a traditional management regime. The long-distance footpath called the Dales Way passes through this protected area.

Kettlewell Meadows is adjacent to another protected area called River Wharfe SSSI.
