West Burton is a small, largely rural parish in the district of Bassetlaw, in north Nottinghamshire, England. It is characterised by arable fields, hedgerow-lined lanes and river meadows, giving it a quiet, agricultural feel rather than an urban centre.

The parish has a modest historic core with traditional farmsteads and a church and a handful of listed buildings, and local life remains focused on farming, community activities and village institutions. Its tranquillity and country lanes make it popular with walkers and cyclists, while nearby market towns such as Retford and Worksop provide wider services and connections.
