Countryside living in the market town of Appleby nestled in the beautiful Eden Valley

Orchard Place is situated within the Eden Valley in the ancient market town of Appleby, with main road links towards the north and south of the country via the A66 and M6. For generations, the Eden Valley has been one of the best loved areas of Cumbria, thanks to its combination of picturesque villages, stunning countryside and unique charm.

Located on the banks of the River Eden, the development benefits from beautiful countryside views and is set between the Lake District National Park and the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Local schools are Appleby Primary School and Appleby Grammar School.

The town centre is the perfect place to find local produce, with a weekly market and a wide range of well established independent shops. In the centre you can find a variety of cafés and restaurants, all within walking distance of the development, including The Royal Oak and the Crown & Cushion.
