Seatoller is a village in Borrowdale in the Lake District, and within Cumberland. It stands on the B5289 road at the east foot of the Honister Pass, and to the south of Derwent Water. The nearest town to Seatoller is Keswick, seven miles to the north.

In the 1960s and 1970s, Seatoller was the destination of a regular walkers’ bus, which left Carlisle each Sunday at 07:30 giving access by public transport into the heart of the lakes.

The hamlet today consists of a farmhouse, two bed and breakfasts, a tea shop and two rows of cottages.
