Cumwhitton is a small village and civil parish in rural Cumberland, England, sitting in the gentle, agricultural landscape of the Eden valley not far from the River Eden. It lies within easy reach of Carlisle and the A69, and is popular with walkers and visitors exploring nearby stretches of Hadrian's Wall and the lower slopes of the Pennines.
Locally the community is small and pastoral, with farming still at the heart of the local economy and a number of residents who commute to nearby towns. The village retains a quiet historic character, with a stone church and traces of older settlement, and enjoys the social feel of a close-knit rural community with occasional local events and a steady stream of countryside tourism.
