Kaber is a small, rural civil parish in the Westmorland and Furness unitary area, lying in the western reaches of the Eden Valley and close to the lower slopes of the Pennines. Historically part of Westmorland, it consists of a scattering of stone-built houses and farms set among rolling fields and drystone walls, giving it a quiet, scenic character typical of this part of northern England.
Economically and socially the parish is dominated by agriculture - mainly sheep and beef farming - but its tranquillity and access to walking country make it attractive to visitors and small-scale rural diversification. Local life and services tend to be centred on nearby market towns such as Appleby-in-Westmorland and Kirkby Stephen, and the area retains a sense of historic continuity in field patterns, lanes and vernacular buildings.
