Scotter is a small village and civil parish in the district of West Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England. It occupies a pleasant position in low-lying countryside, with the course of the River Eau nearby and easy access to the wider Trent valley, giving the area a quietly agricultural feel alongside small clusters of housing and local services.

The village has historic roots reflected in its parish church and older stone buildings, while today it combines farming with a commuter role for nearby towns such as Gainsborough and Scunthorpe. Community life revolves around the village hall, primary school and local pubs and events, so it retains a strong village identity despite modern pressures on rural communities close to the River Trent and the Isle of Axholme.
