Little Thurlow is a small village and civil parish set in the rolling arable countryside of West Suffolk, in the county of Suffolk, England. Tucked close to its neighbour Great Thurlow and within easy reach of market towns such as Bury St Edmunds, it retains a quietly rural character of lanes, hedgerows and estate parkland, with several historic houses and a traditional parish church that hint at its long local history.
The local economy remains tied to farming and land management, though many residents commute to nearby towns and cities for work. Community life is typical of a small Suffolk village - a close-knit feel, occasional village events and walks across the surrounding countryside - making it attractive to those seeking a peaceful village lifestyle within reach of regional centres.
