Sellindge is a small village and civil parish in the district of Folkestone and Hythe, in Kent, England. It sits on the edge of the low hills above Romney Marsh and near the southern fringe of the North Downs, with quick road links via the M20 between Ashford and Folkestone, giving a mix of rural solitude and commuter convenience.

The parish retains a strong agricultural character with surrounding arable and grazing land, a compact village nucleus with a historic church and community facilities, and a lively calendar of local events and clubs. Its long history stretches back through medieval times, but today life balances traditional farming, small local enterprises and residents who travel to nearby towns for work.
