The village of Cropwell Bishop sits in the borough of Rushcliffe in Nottinghamshire, England, about ten miles south‑east of Nottingham on the edge of the Vale of Belvoir. It occupies a pleasant rural setting of rolling farmland and limestone cottages, with good road links that make it popular both with local farmers and commuters into the city.

Despite its modest size the village is notable for a creamery that produces Cropwell Bishop Stilton and for a strong, community-minded feel centred on the pub, village hall and local clubs. There are medieval roots and a number of historic buildings, so visitors encounter a mix of traditional village life, local food heritage and easy access to countryside walks.
