Welcome to Appleby

Appleby-in-Westmorland lies in a loop of the river Eden and is overlooked by the Pennine range with the Lake District Fells showing on the western horizon, just a few miles away . Appleby is also only 2 miles from the Western Dales extension in the Yorkshire Dales National park so is an ideal base for a touring holiday.
