Acrise is a small rural village and civil parish in the district of Folkestone and Hythe in Kent, England. Set in rolling Kentish countryside a short drive from the coast, it feels quietly agricultural with lanes, hedgerows and patches of woodland rather than shops or industry.
Historically the settlement is centred on its parish church and a handful of listed houses and manors, including the historic Acrise Place, which give the area an old‑world character. Today the population is small and largely residential, with many residents commuting to nearby towns; village life tends to revolve around the church, local events and the surrounding farmland and footpaths.
