Map of the UK

Morland is a small rural village and civil parish in the unitary authority of Westmorland and Furness in England, tucked into the gentle landscape of the Eden Valley. It sits close to the course of the River Eden and offers easy access to both the fells of the Lake District and the rolling uplands of the Pennines>, making it popular with walkers and anyone seeking a quiet, pastoral setting.

The village retains a strong agricultural character with stone-built houses and several listed buildings, centred around a historic parish church and community amenities typical of English villages. Local life is shaped by farming, small-scale tourism and commuting to nearby market towns such as Penrith and Appleby-in-Westmorland, and there’s a close-knit feel to events and clubs that keep the social fabric active despite its modest size.
