Edenham is a small rural parish in South Kesteven, Lincolnshire, England, set close to the market town of Bourne. The parish is notable for being dominated by the historic Grimsthorpe Park and estate, so its scenery is a mix of estate parkland, woodland and arable farmland rather than a built-up village centre.

Historically tied to the Grimsthorpe estate, Edenham retains a traditional village feel with an old parish church and a handful of stone cottages; the local economy remains largely agricultural with a sprinkle of heritage tourism and countryside recreation. There are also local conservation interests and a quiet, close-knit community atmosphere, and the parish once enjoyed a short-lived estate railway connection that hints at its Victorian and Edwardian links to nearby towns.
