Nearby villages include Great Bealings, Playford, Culpho, Martlesham and Grundisburgh.

The village is centred around its public house, the Admiral's Head, and also contains a village school, a village hall and a meeting room called the Angela Cobbold Memorial Hall.

Until 1956 the village had an active railway station. This was closed as part of the 1950s rail closure programme, [] prior to the Beeching Axe. The station is now used as commercial office premises. The railway line running through the station remains active, as part of the Ipswich to Felixstowe line, and crosses the main street at an automatic level crossing.

Little Bealings' church is All Saints, part of a shared benefice with Great Bealings, Playford and Culpho.
