Thurlton is a small village and civil parish in South Norfolk, Norfolk, England, set in a quietly rural part of the county. The settlement keeps a strong village feel with a historic parish church and traditional village amenities; its origins reach back to medieval times and the surrounding landscape is still shaped by farming and small rural enterprises.

Economically people work in agriculture, local trades or commute to nearby centres such as Norwich, while community life is kept lively by village hall activities, the local pub and seasonal events. Its location also gives reasonably easy access to the wider Norfolk river network and The Broads for leisure, which colours the local character and attracts visitors to the area.
