Sibthorpe is a very small, predominantly rural civil parish in the borough of Rushcliffe, in Nottinghamshire, England. It consists of a handful of houses and farmsteads set in rolling arable countryside, with a medieval parish church and a number of historic buildings that hint at its long, agricultural past; the settlement has a quiet, low‑density character typical of Nottinghamshire hamlets.

The local economy is largely farming‑based and there are few services within the parish itself, so residents commonly travel to nearby towns and centres such as Nottingham for work and amenities. Social life is informal and tends to centre on the church and neighbouring village networks, while walkers and wildlife enthusiasts value the peaceful lanes, hedgerows and open fields for birdlife and rural scenery.
