Soulby is a small, rural parish in Westmorland and Furness, in north‑west England, lying among rolling pastures and drystone walls on the eastern fringes of the Pennines. The hamlets and farms look out across the Eden Valley, a landscape of narrow lanes, stone-built farmhouses and open fell country that appeals to walkers and those seeking a quiet rural base.
Historically part of old Westmorland, the area has long been shaped by sheep and cattle farming; today agriculture still dominates the local economy alongside a modest amount of holiday accommodation and commuting to nearby market towns such as Kirkby Stephen. Socially it retains a small, close‑knit community feel, with occasional local events and easy access for recreational visitors heading into the Yorkshire Dales and surrounding countryside.
