Morland is a small village and civil parish in Westmorland and Furness, set in the rolling farmland of the Eden Valley beneath the lower slopes of the Pennines. The area is rural and scenic, with a small river, the Lyvennet, running nearby and a landscape of stone walls, farmsteads and walking routes that make it popular with walkers and people looking for a quiet country base.
Historically the settlement has medieval roots and a handsome stone church at its heart, and the local economy remains largely agricultural with a sprinkling of holiday lets and small businesses serving residents and visitors. Community life is typical of a small English village, with informal events, a village hall and close ties to the nearby market town of Appleby-in-Westmorland for services and markets.
