Ramsholt is a tiny, ribbon-like village and civil parish tucked on the north bank of the River Deben in East Suffolk, Suffolk, England. Its setting on the Deben estuary gives it a very coastal feel despite being small: salt marshes and mudflats draw birdlife and make the footpaths and shoreline popular with walkers and naturalists, while a modest cluster of moorings and launches attracts local sailors.
The settlement has a quiet, largely rural character with a handful of houses, an historic church and the well-known riverside pub, the Ramsholt Arms, which doubles as a social hub for visiting yachtsmen and local residents. Economically it leans on small-scale agriculture and leisure tourism rather than industry, and the village’s peacefulness and strong sense of community are part of its enduring appeal.
