Catterlen is a small village and civil parish 3 miles (4.8 km) north west of Penrith, Cumbria.

The village is a linear one with the B5305 road dividing it into two. Junction 41 of the M6 motorway is at Catterlen.

The parish of Catterlen also includes the slightly more populous village of Newton Reigny which was a separate parish from 1866 to 1934, previous to 1866 both villages were part of a larger Newton Reigny Parish.

The large house and former pele tower known as Catterlen Hall is closer to Newton Reigny than Catterlen.

Within the parish is the Newton Rigg College part of the Yorkshire-based Askham Bryan College.
