Widmerpool is a small village and civil parish in the borough of Rushcliffe, Nottinghamshire, England, lying a few miles south of Nottingham. It sits amid gently rolling farmland and retains a compact, village feel with a mix of older stone houses and later residential development, reflecting its rural origins and more recent commuter appeal.
