Frant is a small village and civil parish in the Wealden district of East Sussex, England, set on the rolling, wooded ridges of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It retains a picturesque centre of sandstone cottages, a village green and a historic parish church, and sits just a few miles south of Royal Tunbridge Wells, making it feel both rural and well connected.
The parish benefits from nearby country estates and parkland such as Eridge Park, with plenty of walking and cycling on quiet lanes and footpaths; locally the economy is largely residential with small farms, village services and a modest visitor trade. There is an active community life centred on the village hall and annual events, so Frant combines country tranquillity with a strong local social scene.
