The civil parish of Lindale and Newton-in-Cartmel sits on the edge of the southern Lake District within the unitary authority of Westmorland and Furness in England. It occupies a gently rolling landscape between the southern tip of Windermere and the tidal flats of Morecambe Bay, with easy road links to Grange-over-Sands and the A590, making it popular with walkers and visitors seeking quieter access to the fells and estuary.
Historically rooted in agriculture and small-scale trades, the settlements show a mix of vernacular cottages and Victorian houses and benefit from proximity to attractions such as Cartmel and the wider Lake District tourism economy; today the local economy blends farming, holiday accommodation, craft businesses and commuter households. Community life is typical of small Cumbrian parishes, with active village groups, a handful of pubs and cafés, and a strong local interest in conserving the landscape and historic buildings that give the area its character.
