Hunston is a small village and civil parish in Mid Suffolk, Suffolk, England, set amid the rolling arable countryside that characterises this part of East Anglia. It lies close to the little market town of Eye and is reached by quiet lanes and public footpaths that attract walkers who enjoy hedgerow-lined fields and expansive rural views.
The village has a modest historic core of flint and timber-framed cottages and a parish church with medieval roots, reflecting centuries of agricultural settlement. Local life is largely rural and community-focused, with farming still important to the local economy alongside residents who commute to larger centres such as Ipswich and Diss, and occasional village events that bring neighbours together.
