Whitelackington is a small, rural village and civil parish in South Somerset, Somerset, in the west of England, situated a few miles west of Ilminster on gently rolling countryside close to the Blackdown Hills. The settlement is quietly agricultural in character, with dairy and arable farming still prominent and many residents commuting to nearby towns for work and services.
The village has medieval roots and a compact historic core centred on the parish church, with several listed buildings and the remains of former manorial estates that give it a strong sense of local history. Social life tends to be community-led and close-knit, organised around the church and occasional village events, while the surrounding landscape attracts walkers and those after a rural Somerset feel rather than tourist bustle.
