Felton is a village and civil parish in Northumberland, England, set on the banks of the River Coquet and close to the A1 between Alnwick and Morpeth. The setting combines river valley scenery and farmland, making it popular with walkers and those seeking easy access to the wider Northumberland countryside.

The community retains the feel of a traditional rural village with a village hall, pub and primary school, and a number of historic stone buildings and bridges that hint at a long local history. Agriculture still plays an important role locally, though many residents commute to nearby towns, and village life is animated by local clubs, events and outdoor pursuits rather than large-scale industry.
