Hopton is a small rural village and civil parish in West Suffolk, in the county of Suffolk, England. It sits in gently rolling agricultural countryside typical of east England, with a landscape of arable fields, hedgerows and scattered lanes rather than an urban centre, giving a quiet, countryside feel and good access to nearby market towns for services.

Historically it has the feel of a traditional Suffolk village, with older cottages, farm buildings and a parish church at its heart, and the local economy remains largely agricultural with some commuting to larger towns. Social life tends to revolve around village events, the church and village hall, and the surrounding landscape draws walkers and those interested in rural heritage.
