We found it hard to find these reliable local buses, that suited our needs. fortunately the taxi costs were well with in our budget Ray.

Thanks for the the reply

I used the good local buses for transport in the Pendle area, it is a lot cheaper than taxis.

We completed the Way in 4 days, using the official leaflet guides, combining 2 sections for each day’s walking.
We used Angram Green Campsite (not the CL one) as a base – located at foot of Pendle Hill, but on Clitheroe side. It’s very basic but well-situated, reasonably priced and suited our preferences when camping.
To complete the daily sections, we drove to either the start or finish point and used local taxi firms to return to our car. For the first 2 days we used County Cars in Earby – the finish point on day 1 and start point for day 2. The helpful taxi driver pointed out a free car park in Earby, which we used on day 2. At the end of day 2/beginning of day 3, we found ourselves at Coldwell Activity Centre (BB10 3 RD). This is quite isolated and the Activity Centre is a private business that does not allow parking other than for users of the centre. There was nowhere else to park other than roadside, so on day 3 we parked at Barley Picnic Site and got a taxi from there to Coldwell Inn.
For day 3 and 4 we used SD Taxis in Nelson as they were closer to where we were parked, so cheaper.
Altogether the taxis cost approximately £65.
We found the best meals were to be in Barrowford in the George & Dragon – a good choice of home-cooked food at extremely good prices, in a traditional pub.
The Pendle Way website was helpful and we got taxi firm recommendations from Peter who runs that website.
On the whole we found the route well-signed and maintained. We bought Paul Hannon’s Pendle Way guidebook and using this and the OS map we were able to navigate some of the more confusing sections when the Pendle Way combines with the Pennine Way and Pennine Bridleway. We found that the signs for the longer trails should be followed until the Pendle Way witch icon signs are picked up again.
This was our first long-distance path walked in its entirety on consecutive days and despite some very wet weather, we are looking at the Dales Way or Derwent Valley Way for our next one.
