Haverthwaite is a small village and civil parish in the Furness region of Cumbria, England.

[4] In 1860, the Furness Railway opened its branch line that ran from Ulverston to Lakeside; almost overnight, the quays fell into disuse.

[citation needed] St Anne's Church was originally a chapel under Colton; it was consecrated in 1825 and extended in 1838.

The area is served by the number 6 bus route, operated by Stagecoach Cumbria; this connects Haverthwaite with Barrow-in-Furness, Bowness-on-Windermere, Grange-over-Sands, Kendal, Newby Bridge and Ulverston.

[9] The A590 road runs to the north of the village, connecting Barrow-in-Furness to the M6 motorway close to Kendal.
