About

Millom & Duddon Valley is located in southern Cumberland, near the western edge of the Lake District. The area is characterised by a mix of coastal plains, rolling farmland, and the rugged fells of the Duddon Valley. Millom, a former iron-mining town, sits close to the estuary of the River Duddon, with views toward the Irish Sea. The surrounding landscape includes salt marshes, sand dunes, and the prominent Black Combe fell.

The Duddon Valley stretches northward, offering a quieter alternative to the busier central Lakes. It features steep-sided valleys, wooded gorges, and the winding River Duddon. Small villages like Ulpha and Seathwaite dot the valley, with traditional stone buildings and historic bridges. The area is known for its walking routes, including sections of the Cumbria Coastal Way and paths leading into the higher fells. Industrial heritage, such as old ironworks and mining relics, contrasts with the natural scenery.
