Cliburn is a small, gently tucked-away village in the unitary authority of Westmorland and Furness in England, lying a few miles south‑east of Penrith in the rolling countryside of the Eden Valley. The settlement sits close to the River Leith and the heathery, peat-rich area known as Cliburn Moss, giving it a quietly scenic setting on the fringes of the Lake District landscape.
It has a distinctly rural character: farming and local smallholdings dominate, and the village is made up of older stone houses and farm buildings with a parish church dedicated to St Cuthbert's Church. Historically part of the old county of Westmorland, Cliburn retains a strong community feel and is often used as a peaceful base for exploring the wider Eden Valley and nearby fells.
