Darsham is a small village and civil parish in East Suffolk, in the county of Suffolk, England. It sits close to the A12 and is served by a halt on the East Suffolk Line, giving straightforward rail links to Ipswich and Lowestoft. The surrounding landscape is predominantly arable and low-lying, with reedbeds and small woods that make the area appealing for walkers and birdwatchers.

The village keeps a quiet, historic rural character with period cottages, farm buildings and a church and village hall that form the social heart; historically agriculture shaped the local economy, though today many people commute to nearby towns or work in tourism, conservation and rural services. For visitors it offers peaceful country walks and easy access to the Suffolk coast and heathland, including the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and nearby market towns such as Saxmundham.
