I visited for the Christmas three course dinner. Which was amazing. Very tasty food and well presented. Staff was lovely and welcoming, they couldn't do enough for you. Deserves more than five stars.

Lovely setting. Great accommodation in self contained apartment and what a wonderful welcome from the staff and management. Great roaring fire in the pub too. Just what was needed on a cold evening. Five stars

Great country pub. Log fires, plenty of beers to choose from. I went with a group of friends for drinks and evening meal. The staff were friendly and attentive. One of my group wasn't happy with the belly pork dish. Looked ok to me. Anyway it was changed for something else without any question or fuss. The food was delicious and a decent sized portion. I had a Trio of Sausage. I will definitely go again.

Entered the Pendle Inn after a walk to the nearby Pendle Sculpture Trail on a snowy and misty November afternoon. We were immediately welcomed with a friendly 'come in' and looking no doubt a little bit wet and cold, after ordering drinks, were directed to a table by the fireplace. After a few minutes, we decided we'd get a bite to eat as well. The food was absolutely delicious, compliments to the chef, and the young lady that served us was polite, courteous and attentive throughout. Top marks again. The Inn is dog friendly, there were a number of dogs in on my visit, and it was also nice to see
