Copeland is an attractive borough in which to work – both in terms of striking scenery and affordability. It boasts stunning natural beauty, with landscapes bounded by the quiet sandy beaches of the west coast, mountains with tranquil valleys, rivers and lakes, and a variety of small towns and villages full of character. In the majestic Wasdale Valley is Scafell Pike, the highest mountain in England and ‘Britain’s Favourite View’ Wastwater, the deepest lake in England. Statistically the most affordable local authority in England and Wales in 2017, with median house prices being 2.7 times median workplace-based annual earnings, Copeland is one of the North West’s most exciting areas.
