Hellingly ward covers a largely rural expanse within the Wealden district. The area is characterised by scattered farms, woodland, and the meandering course of the River Cuckmere.

The landscape includes the settlements of Lower Dicker and part of Hailsham's northern outskirts, with the Cuckoo Trail walking and cycling path following a disused railway line through the parish.
