Teffont is a civil parish in the south of Wiltshire, England, consisting of the villages of Teffont Magna and Teffont Evias. It is in the Nadder valley, about 10 miles (16 km) west of Salisbury. The population taken at the 2011 census was 248.

The parish was created in 1934 by combining the two Teffonts. For most of its history Teffont Magna had been a chapelry of Dinton.

Part of Chilmark Quarries, a former stone quarry and now a Site of Special Scientific Interest, is in the far southwest of the parish.

Teffont has a parish council and is in the area of the Wiltshire Council unitary authority, which is responsible for almost all significant local government functions.
