Ibthorpe is a village in the north of Hampshire, immediately north-west of and essentially attached to Hurstbourne Tarrant on the River Swift.

The name of Ibthorpe is believed to be from the Old English Inbban þorp, meaning "Ibba's village".

Most houses in the hamlet stand around a central horseshoe-shaped road, with some extending toward neighbouring Hurstbourne Tarrant.
