Milton Ernest is a small rural village and civil parish a few miles east of Bedford in Bedfordshire, England. It keeps a compact, village feel centred on a historic parish church, St Peter and St Paul, a village hall and green, and a mix of older cottages and later homes rather than large-scale development.

Historically agricultural, the local economy is now largely residential with many people commuting into Bedford or beyond; the surrounding farmland, hedgerows and small ponds make the area popular with walkers and birdwatchers. Community events and village groups help sustain a close-knit social life while the patchwork of fields and quiet lanes preserves a distinctly rural character.
