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.
At the moment we are in what the church calls an “Interregnum” a posh word for not having a resident Vicar so Churchwardens shoulder the service rota in-between Clergy led services. The only thing we miss in Lay led services is Holy Communion but it also means that those services which are lay led can bring in innovations and fresh expressions to the services as they are less formal than a Eucharist service. Below is a taster of our community which you can read on the page or download.
After each service we have Tea/Coffee in the all and a really good natter which means a lot to country folk who may don’t see one another too much during the week, so Sunday services become the catch up day for a laugh and chuckle alongside the natter.
We don’t care whether you believe in God, or Jesus, what matters to us is that you are here and joining in with what we churched folk call Fellowship. It can and does make a big difference to village life when we get together to do things within our community and we are always looking to support projects that make for a better life for our residents near and far.
If you like the sound of that – why not join us at one of our services, the list is below come and have a coffee and a natter!

Christmas Trees 2023
The church looked great for December and Christmas with the Christmas Trees and decorations, I was that busy I forgot to take a video but here is one of the other years as it looked much the same anyway. I promise I’ll do the vid next December, honest!
