Kelling is a small coastal parish in North Norfolk, Norfolk, on the western edge of the long, low beaches and shingle ridges of the north Norfolk coast. The village sits next to Kelling Heath, an area of heather, pine and marshy hollows that forms part of the North Norfolk coastal landscape and is prized for birdwatching, walking and its distinctive heathland scenery.

The local economy is a quiet mix of farming and tourism, with a handful of holiday accommodation and bed-and-breakfasts catering to visitors seeking nature and peace rather than busy seaside resorts; nearby towns such as Holt and Sheringham provide shops and services. Historically modest and rural, the parish retains traditional cottages, a parish church and a strong sense of community, and is valued for its open skies, wildlife interest and relatively unspoilt character.
