Heathcote was the son of Sir Gilbert Heathcote, 3rd Baronet and Elizabeth Hudson, daughter of Robert Hudson. He succeeded as fourth Baronet on his father's death in 1785. In 1796 he was elected to the House of Commons for Lincolnshire, a seat he held until 1806, and then represented Rutland from 1812 to 1841.
