Whalley 

Valleys, Fells and Spells begins here. Perched on the banks of the River Calder, Whalley in the Ribble Valley is the largest district in Lancashire. Furthermore, most of it is designated as an  ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’. Whalley is a charming village, filled with historic buildings, characterful shops and lovely cafes and restaurants.

Lunch at The Calfs Head Inn – A Greatdays’ Favourite

The Calf’s Head Inn is a country restaurant with a great reputation for excellent food and friendly service. It is therefore a wonderful place for a relaxing lunch. It has a history stretching back 400 years.

Scenic Tour

After lunch the tour continues through memorable countryside to reputedly Lancashire’s most beautiful village, Downham, the setting for many films and BBC drama series. You then travel onto the tranquil ruins of the 12th Century Sawley Abbey. Next it is over the Pendle Hills, before finally descending back down into the valley to Sabden village, home of two of the leading Pendle Witches.

Pendle Heritage Centre
