Tixover is a hamlet and civil parish in Rutland.

The parish church, St Luke's, near the River Welland, now stands about 3/4 mile from the village.

Tixover Grange, west of the A47 road, was home to the residential school named after Wilfred Pickles from 1955 to the 1980s. Tixover House is now a care home, run by Barchester Healthcare.

One of the country's most popular off-road driving centres is at Tixover Quarry, which is used by many Land Rover clubs for days out, and by Land Rover Owner Magazine for vehicle tests and photo shoots.
