Westhorpe is a small rural village and civil parish in Mid Suffolk, Suffolk, England, set among the rolling arable farmland typical of central Suffolk. It sits within easy driving distance of market towns such as Stowmarket and Bury St Edmunds, making it both a quiet commuter base and a working agricultural community.
The village retains a historic feel with timber‑framed cottages and a medieval parish church and has historic links to Tudor‑era Westhorpe Hall, once associated with the Brandon family and the Tudor court. Community life is centred on the church and village hall, while farming and small local enterprises continue to shape the local economy and social life.
