Enjoy some Countryside Rest & Relaxation at The Pendle Inn Pub Barley located in lovely Lancashire’s Barley village within The Forest of Bowland.
Stunning scenery is yours for the viewing, ideal photographical location or simply just kick back, relax, enjoy rural bliss and if you are lucky there may be an opportunity to mix with the locals making some “Wollyful” memories.
Now, what’s the countryside without a quaint and cosy countryside pub? The Pendle Inn pub Barley is just the stop after a stomp around the countryside.
From the moment you arrive, the fabulously friendly team will welcome you with open arms and give you a lovely Lancashire hug.
The Pendle pub’s Sunday lunch menu makes my mouth water on every visit, it’s pub grub at it’s best homely and hearty just what you need after countryside rambles.
A glass of prosecco and of course a pint of Daniel Thwaites beer was a nice start to lovely lunchies. We indulged in three courses which included two superb starters; the Goats cheese croquettes and chicken strips both with the all important dips and a fresh salad to jazz up the plate.
Main meals included the stunning Beef roast dinner and Goats cheese tart veggie offering with all the trimmings and lashings of gravy!
Fruit Crumble with creamy custard and Chocolate Brownie with chocolate sauce and ice cream both hit the sweet spot and was pure dessert heaven.
If you really want to rest and relax in true countryside style you can opt to stay over the night in one of their onsite Annex rooms right next door to the pub!
Each Annex Room, has parking and private access for each room, gives country cottage style vibes offering guests a open plan lounge diner, ensuite toilet/shower facilities and a double bedroom upstairs with sky light window.
There are complimentary toiletries, bottled water and more importantly a hospitality tray with tea, coffee and biscuits. Yes, you can’t go wrong with biscuits perfect to pair up with a cuppa so get dipping.
The pub has lots of quaint nooks, crannies and a contemporary conservatory area, so whatever your style you are covered. In the evening we always opt for the conservatory for dinner and the Pendle Pub team never disappoint.
The pub has an extensive range of refreshments including spirts, wine, and the best hand crafted cocktails, both Holly and Sam smash service and know exactly how to mix up the classics and also one off special requests…all beautifully balanced and sublime to drink.
Now you have settled the thirst, I highly recommend dining onsite, as Head Chef Stuart and his team know exactly how to satisfy a hearty appetite. The gorgeous Goats Cheese Tart with Pesto, tasty Tempura Prawns and lush Halloumi fries with sweet chilli dipping sauces and a salad garnish are the bees knees!
Mains are amaze, top quality produce cooked to perfection, the Cod Loin was wow, fabulous Fish & Chips with all the trimmings and the side of veggies made the perfect add on.
After a good nights rest in you amazing Annex room a walk around Pendle’s reservoir makes for morning loveliness, I am sure that you will agree the views are breath-taking.
After morning walkies, you have most definitely earned a treat, so this gives you the perfect excuse to pop back to the pub for some liquid refreshments.
The pub is the perfect place for a pint, glass of warming red wine or a coffee and your spoilt for choice as they have two roaring fires providing a cosy, relaxing and restful environment.
