Slakes Farm is situated in the beautiful Eden Valley 2 miles from Milburn , it is a small sheep and beef farm of around 40 acres. The farmhouse dates from 1743.
Milburn nestles at the foot of the Pennines with CrossFell in the background an area famous for the Helmwind. Lake Ullswater is 15 miles away and views of the Lake District Fells can be seen from the farm.
The village still has its church, primary school, and WI.
