Broadhembury is a small village and civil parish in East Devon, Devon, England, tucked into the rolling countryside of the Blackdown Hills. It sits around a traditional green and parish church and is known for its thatched cottages, timber-framed houses and a broadly conserved village character that attracts walkers and people looking for a quiet rural escape; the market town of Honiton lies within easy reach.

Historically agricultural, the parish still has a landscape of mixed farms, orchards and smallholdings and a modest local economy of farm businesses, artisans and holiday lets.
