PENDLE WITCH EXPERIENCE TOUR

19 October 2024

From £40 inc guided tour

The Pendle Witch Experience Tour not only tells the story of the Pendle Witches, but also our guide will take us around all the beautiful countryside on both sides of the Pendle Hill.  The countryside has changed little since the 1600s, this atmospheric landscape will take your breath away.

We include manor houses, battlegrounds, abbeys, ancient churches, witches’ graves and stories of the famous men and women who lived there, including the local man who invented time as we know it.

See for yourself what Queen Mary in the early part of the 20 th century called ‘the finest view from a church porch in England’.

We will visit the village of Roughlee which contains a statue to Dame Alice Nutter who was the only educated woman hung as a witch.  The prosecutor in her trial wanted her land but did not get it in the end as her sons inherited it.  We also visit quite possibly, the prettiest village in Lancashire which is owned by one man including the church, all the houses and the pub have been owned by the same family since the 1500s.  We’ll make plenty of stops for photographs, and there will also be refreshment opportunities.

Top reasons to choose Lancashire

Pendle Hill Witch Experience Tours

Pendle Witch Experience Tours at Pendle Hill , Lancashire 1 January — 31 December 2021 Tickets from £18 — Book now

Pendle Hill is an eerie landmark that is best navigated with the help of Top Hat Tours who will take you on a location tour by minibus – safety by numbers help when roaming ‘witch county’. Expert guide Simon Entwistle will lead you through a 17th century tale, where ten Pendle born men and women were accused, trialled and hung for crimes of witchcraft – one of the largest and most infamous witch trials.

“Stand on the flat top of Pendle Hill and you can see everything of the county of Lancashire, and some say you can see other things too. This is a haunted place. The living and the dead come together on the hill,” writes Jeannette Winterson in her novel Daylight Gate , based on the tales of witch trials which took place in the forest and on the hill that carry the Pendle name.

In a 3 hour tour, expect to be taken to the locations of cursings, questionings and witches’ assemblies around various villages, with an evening vigil at the hill. A second extended variation of the tour takes you as far as Lancaster where the witches were imprisoned, tried then hung on Gallows Hill. Both tours offer a chilling insight into the brutality of living through the 17th century and the fear felt particularly by women, in a time where one stern word with a stranger, or the handling of some medicinal herbs, might land you with a witchcraft accusation to defend yourself against.

The story reads like a 17th century soap opera with two rival families, some serious mudslinging between the two houses and within each family too, and a final plot twist as a nine year old girl enters the court to give the most damning evidence – against her own mother, sister and brother.

In our modern age, it can be hard to fathom that these are more than just spooky campfire stories. Standing on the same soil and walking in footsteps of these witches is a sombre reminder that these were real people, living through oppressive times, ruled over by King James I and his specially appointed ‘Witchfinders’.

Simon will come suitably dressed and well informed with an array of voices and sound effects to embellish the tour. He’ll lead you through this fascinating story and other local, historical tales whilst you take in the beauty of Pendle’s countryside villages. If you prefer to stay local, Simon also offers a Blackburn ghost walk and other towns around the county.

Meander through the stunning Lancashire countryside around Pendle Hill, which has changed little since the time of the trial, and hear the devilish deeds and wicked acts which led to ten alleged witches being executed in Lancaster in 1612.

The Lake District

A unique tapestry of mountains, lakes & tarns The Lake District is England's largest National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site AND home to the highest mountain (Scafell Pike), longest lake (Windermere) and deepest lake in the country (Wastwater). The national park’s unique landscape is the product of geographical processes over the last 500 million years. You might have noticed that it rains a lot here. This, combined with extra deep glacial valleys and volcanic rock that doesn’t allow the water to seep away, is the reason there are so many lakes and tarns. An unrivalled list of things to see & do Dotted around this peaceful - and photogenic part of the world are many historic towns and villages, vast farmland, ancient dry-stone walls, and so much more. If you’re heading here for an adventure or to get back to nature - you can walk, hike, hire a boat, camp.. the list is unrivalled. If you like to eat and drink, there are many cosy pubs to treat yourself to a locally distilled beer (or something stronger), and if you want to stock up on local delicacies or gifts for loved ones, there are countless quaint little shops. Don’t miss - If you haven’t already, try Kendal Mint Cake, a locally made energy-boosting snack enjoyed by hikers worldwide!

Moscow: City Sightseeing by Car/Bus

• Description
• Choose date

Visiting a new city is akin to going on a first date, it is something you will never forget. Many people imagine Moscow as just a bunch of sporadic landmarks: Red Square, the Kremlin, Lenin’s Mausoleum and GUM. There is so much more to this wonderful city than that and even though we only have a few hours, we will do all we can to show you everything we know and love about our capital in one fell swoop. We will take you on a journey through the ages, from centuries ago, right up to the modern day, soaking in the sights of this vast and bustling metropolis. Bright, luxurious and both ancient and modern at the same time, Moscow invites you on a date you’ll never forget!

On our sightseeing bus tour of the city, you will see:

• The wonderfully historic city centre and its unique museums, magnificent cathedrals, the exquisite Chambers of the Romanov Boyars and of course, the famous towering red brick walls of the Kremlin, The charming beauty of the Alexander Garden awaits the capital's guests - a lush green oasis in the midst of the glass and concrete clad metropolis, basking in the etherial aura emanating from the whitewashed stone walls of the restored Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, the world- renowned fairytale onion domes of St. Basil's Cathedral and other impressive monumental buildings such as the library built in Lenin's honour - the Russian State Library - and the State Duma.
• The Lubyanka KGB headquarters is notorious to members of older generations and although nowadays, the face of the secret police has changed dramatically, the looming enigmatic building on the waterfront maintains its aura of mystery, shrouded in a variety of murky rumours and dark myths. Then, there’s another of Moscow's main attractions - the marvellous Bolshoi Theatre, yew simply cant leave Moscow without taking in its breathtaking architecture. Engrained in the fabric of Russia's cultural heritage, virtuoso performers such as prima ballerina Galina Ulanova, opera singer Feodor Chaliapin and pianist, composer and conductor Sergei Rachmaninoff once stood centre stage of this vaunted institution.
• The memorial complex on Poklonnaya Hill was constructed in the glory and honour of our heroes who defended our nation in the many crucial battles of the Great Patriotic War (WWII). This is a place that embodies a particularly acute and inextricable link between older ancf younger generations. Moving on to the Moscow International Business Centre, not dubbed ‘Moscow City' for nothing, a true glimpse of the future in the present. This incredible, rather jaw-dropping project in the capital has shown that Moscow has come to accept the age of the skyscraper. Finally, the stunning views from the observation deck at Sparrow Hills will leave professional and amateur photographers alike itching to capture them. How could one resist?

The most beautiful of all the world's cities - lady Moscow invites you out on a date!
