Elsworth is a small village and civil parish in South Cambridgeshire, Cambridgeshire, England, situated roughly six miles north‑west of Cambridge. It sits in a patchwork of arable farmland and retains a compact centre of cottages and a village green that hint at its medieval origins.
The village combines a quietly rural economy with strong community life: historic buildings and a parish church sit alongside a village hall, local clubs and annual events, while many residents commute into Cambridge. Cruising lanes and public footpaths make it popular with walkers and those seeking a peaceful base close to the city.
