Kings Meaburn is a small farming village 5 miles west of Appleby the old county town of Westmorland, and 10 miles south of Penrith.
Appleby lies in a loop of the river Eden and is overlooked by the Pennine range with the Lake District Fells showing on the western horizon, just a few miles away.
The town is an ideal centre for tourists of all types and is the starting point for many dozens of walks over the surrounding fell countryside.
Penrith is a welcoming market town with beautiful red sandstone buildings, fascinating yards and alleyways to discover, and pleasant open spaces.
