Hoby with Rotherby sits in the Borough of Melton in rural Leicestershire, England, a few miles north of the market town of Melton Mowbray. The parish includes the small settlements of Hoby and Rotherby and is set amid rolling farmland and hedgerows, with countryside views that reach toward the Vale of Belvoir.
