Map of the UK

Levington is a small riverside village and civil parish in East Suffolk, Suffolk, England, sitting where Levington Creek meets the River Orwell. Its setting close to the water and to the marina gives the place a maritime feel despite a gently agricultural hinterland; Levington Marina and nearby moorings make it a modest hub for local sailing and birdwatching, while Felixstowe and Ipswich are only a short drive away.

The village has a long history and retains a compact, village-community character with a mix of period houses and farmland. Locally the economy and social life combine rural farming, commuting into the larger towns and leisure activities linked to the river and coast, and its quiet lanes and waterside views make it popular with walkers and those seeking a peaceful base near the working port of Felixstowe docks.
