About Tarns

Tarns lies in Cumbria's coastal lowlands, reached via the A596 from Carlisle or A595 from Cockermouth before joining local roads. The area sits between the Lake District and Solway Firth, where flat agricultural land meets scattered farming communities. Approximately 4 EV charging points serve the locality. The village gets its name from the small glacial pools that still punctuate the surrounding fields.
