Map of the UK

Milburn is a small village and civil parish in Westmorland and Furness, set in the broad, fertile bowl of the Eden Valley beneath the eastern slopes of the Pennines. The surrounding countryside is a mix of pastoral farmland and limestone outcrops, with the course of the River Eden and rolling hills giving the area a strong appeal for walkers and people seeking quiet rural scenery.

Historically rooted and traditionally agricultural, Milburn retains a tight-knit community feel with stone cottages and a parish centre that reflect its long-standing village character. Local life is shaped by farming and small-scale tourism linked to nearby market towns such as Appleby-in-Westmorland, and the parish offers a tranquil base for exploring the cultural and natural heritage of the Eden district.
