Built on an ironstone ridge above pretty Northamptonshire countryside, Helidon is a picturesque village. Notable buildings include its lovely, 13th-century parish church and its converted tower mill, which stands proud on Windmill Hill at 670 feet (200 m) above sea level. For walkers completing the Jurassic Way long-distance footpath, there's the option of the Red Lion for both food and accommodation. The nearby Hellidon Lakes are also worth exploring.

The Church of England parish church of St John the Baptist is Decorated Gothic in style, and so from late 13th or early 14th century. The west tower survives in its medieval condition, but in 1845–1847 the nave and chancel were heavily restored for the Rev C. S. Holthouse under the Gothic Revival architect William Butterfield. Twenty years later Butterfield designed the north aisle and the parish school, both were built in 1867. In 1897 a north aisle was added to the chancel, designed by Matthew Houlding. There is also a north transept. St John's is a Grade II* listed building. The west tower has a ring of five bells. Hugh II Watts, who had foundries at Bedford and Leicester, cast the fourth bell in 1615 and the second, third and tenor in 1635. The Whitechapel Bell Foundry cast the treble bell in 1993.
