Shotesham is a rural parish in South Norfolk, in the county of Norfolk, England, lying roughly six miles south of Norwich and close to Long Stratton. It comprises scattered hamlets, rolling arable farmland, pockets of ancient woodland and remnants of estate parkland, linked by narrow lanes and a good network of public footpaths.

The area is noted for several medieval churches and a number of listed buildings, reflecting a long rural history; traditional agriculture remains important while an increasing number of residents commute into Norwich. The small, close‑knit community sustains village events and conservation efforts, and the tranquil landscape is popular with walkers and anyone interested in Norfolk’s country houses and historic countryside.
