Welcome to St Anne’s Haverthwaite
St Anne’s is a stone built Georgian Church nestling towards the west of the foot of Windermere just off the A590. We’re noted for our warm welcome and friendliness to all who attend our services and events, our congregation since Covid averages anywhere between 14 and 25 sometimes more when the holiday season and warmer weather descends upon us.
