About

Sedbergh sits within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, marked by the rugged fells of the Howgill range. These distinctive, smooth-sloped hills define the landscape, offering walking routes directly from the town centre. The area is known for its historic public school and as a designated Book Town, with several independent bookshops lining its main street.

To the south, Kirkby Lonsdale rests just outside the national park boundary along the River Lune. The town is connected by Devil's Bridge, a medieval structure spanning the river. A notable viewpoint, Ruskin's View, overlooks the Lune Valley from St Mary's Churchyard, capturing a celebrated pastoral scene.
