Elsworth is a small village and civil parish in South Cambridgeshire, Cambridgeshire, England, lying a short distance northwest of Cambridge. Set on gently rolling agricultural land near the edge of the Fens, it retains a distinctly rural feel with a mix of older cottages, farmsteads and more recent homes.

Historically rooted in the medieval period, the village has traditional features such as a parish church and several listed buildings and supports an active community life centred on a village hall, local clubs and seasonal events; the local economy still has strong farming ties even as many residents commute into Cambridge, and the area is popular with walkers and cyclists who enjoy the quiet lanes and countryside.
