Long Sutton is a small village in Hampshire, three miles south of Odiham in the east of the county. Neighbouring villages include Well, South Warnborough and Upton Grey.

The village includes picturesque brick and half-timbered cottages and a farmhouse dating from Tudor times.

All Saints Church is the local church. Hydegate House was built in about 1561 by the Terry Family.

In 1,200 acres of farmland stands Lord Wandsworth College, a Neo-Georgian structure built in 1915, founded as a boarding school for boys who have lost a parent.

The line of the Harrow Way, claimed by some to be a prehistoric long-distance trackway, runs through the village.
