Tebay is a small rural community in Westmorland and Furness, set in the Lune valley of north‑west England and historically part of Westmorland. The parish sits where the River Lune threads between uplands, with the M6 and the West Coast Main Line running nearby, and it acts as a quiet gateway to the Howgill Fells, the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales.
Locally the economy remains rooted in hill farming and small businesses, but Tebay Services is an unusual landmark - family‑run and celebrated for selling local produce - while walkers, cyclists and rail enthusiasts are drawn by the surrounding scenery and the area’s transport and railway heritage. The community retains a strong rural character with traditional pubs, village facilities and an active sense of local identity.
