Hartfield is a small village and civil parish in Wealden, East Sussex, England, sitting on the edge of Ashdown Forest within the rolling, wooded landscape of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village retains a pretty green, a historic parish church (St Mary the Virgin) and a patchwork of lanes, farms and heathland that make it popular with walkers and nature lovers.

Hartfield is best known for its literary connections: nearby Cotchford Farm was once home to A. A. Milne and the area features the famous Pooh-related landmarks that draw visitors interested in Winnie-the-Pooh. The local economy blends agriculture, small businesses and tourism, and the village supports a lively community life centred on pubs, shops and seasonal events rather than heavy industry.
