Eltisley is a small rural village and civil parish in South Cambridgeshire, Cambridgeshire, England, set amid arable countryside and hedged lanes a short commuting distance from Cambridge. It retains a compact historic core with period cottages clustered around a village green and a parish church with medieval roots, giving it a distinctly village character rather than a suburban feel.

Historically agricultural, the local economy still revolves around farming alongside residents who commute to nearby towns, and community life centres on a village hall, occasional fêtes and amateur clubs. Visitors and residents value the traditional architecture and tranquillity, and local conservation efforts help preserve the small‑scale pattern of fields, lanes and listed buildings that reflect its long rural heritage.
