Claythorpe is a small, quiet parish in East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England, set in the rolling rural landscape just a few miles from the market town of Horncastle and within easy reach of the Lincolnshire Wolds. The area is typical of the region, with arable fields, hedgerows and scattered historic farmsteads, and it has a modest cluster of old buildings including a historic watermill-turned-country attraction that draws local visitors and walkers.

Economically and socially the parish is dominated by agriculture and small-scale rural enterprises, with a tight-knit community atmosphere and ties to nearby towns for shops, services and markets. Its quiet lanes and proximity to the Wolds make it popular with local ramblers and anyone seeking a peaceful slice of Lincolnshire countryside with a touch of local history.
