Donington on Bain is a small village and civil parish tucked into the rolling chalk hills of the Lincolnshire Wolds AONB in the district of East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England. It sits in the gentle valley of the Bain and is characteristic of the area with limestone cottages, narrow country lanes and a small historic church with medieval roots serving as a local focal point.
The settlement has a traditional rural economy centred on farming, with many residents looking to nearby market towns such as Louth and Horncastle for services and work. The village attracted interest from walkers and birdwatchers drawn to the Wolds' scenery and wildlife, and it retains a close-knit social feel enhanced by village events and the legacy of a mid-20th-century branch railway that once linked the community to the wider region.
