Withybrook is a rural village and civil parish in the English county of Warwickshire. According to the 2001 census its population was 232, increasing to 242 at the 2011 Census.

The village is located in a valley just west of the old Fosse Way, about halfway between Nuneaton and Rugby on the B4112 road. Administratively it forms part of the borough of Rugby; before 1974 it was part of the now-defunct Rugby Rural District. It achieved national prominence when, on 20 August 2005, a local farmer was murdered by car thieves.

The village church, All Saints' Church, dates from the medieval period. It was extensively restored in 1995.
