What guests think
The Alma Inn offers a cosy country-inn stay in a scenic, quiet countryside setting, with welcoming fires, friendly staff, and generally comfortable rooms, plus well-regarded breakfasts and dinners that many guests enjoyed.
It suits walkers, with easy access to Pendle Hill, nearby moors, and a short drive into Colne and the Dales. Drawbacks mentioned by a minority include noise from kitchen extractors in specific rooms, occasional dated or worn features, and mixed feedback on some breakfast items, limited continental choices, or pricing. Expect a welcoming inn with character, best for those prioritising scenery and atmosphere over uniform modernity.

Rural location minutes out of Colne centre. Impressive characterful mullion windowed property on two floors with excellent 1entrance and bar area. Plenty of seating for diners inside and out. Good menu on pricey side though. Venue for weddings and parties. Steep staircase to upper floor.

Beautiful place, with stunning views front and back. Room was fine, but the bathroom was a bit tired. Didn’t eat there but the food looked nice. Would be lovely to sit outside with a beer when the weather picks up a bit. Will stay again.

Location was beautiful, Check in was easy, The bar area and restaurant looked lovely as both areas had log fires roaring, and were decorated very tastefully for Christmas, which gave a lovely welcoming vibe, the room was spotless, bedding was of good quality, the room was very peaceful, with no annoying extractor fan from the bathroom, which you get in a lot of hotels, Also the room was nice and dark, which helped with a really good nights sleep. Evening food was excellent, as was breakfast, the lady we saw at breakfast both days was lovely, friendly and extremely helpful, nothing was too much trouble. We will be back for another stay hopefully soon.

The quality of everything was excellent. This hotel deserves its 4 stars. The customer service was first class, their knowledge and expertise, with food and drinks are visible in every detail. The decor is warm and welcoming, the wood burner was constantly tended makings the lounge areas cozy and warm. There is a welcoming atmosphere and I highly recommend.

Disappointing Stay at the Alma Inn, Colne — Not Quite the 4-Star Experience After a long day of travel, we arrived at the Alma Inn with expectations of a luxurious and comfortable stay, buoyed by its website description and AA 4-star rating. Sadly, what we encountered in Room 2 was far from what was promised. Pros: · Early Wake-Up Call — for early risers only (see below for the why). Cons: · Dated and Worn Interior: The room was small, in need of decorating, with dirty carpets and visible stains on the walls. · Cramped Bed: At 6'3", my feet dangled well off the edge of the very small double bed. Thankfully, I like my wife — we had to stay especially close that night. · Tiny Shower Cubicle: One of the smallest I’ve ever squeezed into — not exactly spa-like comfort. · Musty Atmosphere: The room had a damp, stale feel, possibly due to an ineffective bathroom extractor fan. · Persistent Noise: Situated above the kitchen, the drone of the kitchen extractor outside our wall (peaking at 67dB) didn’t stop until 21:30. Then, as a Friday-to-Saturday guest, our “lie-in” ended abruptly at 08:07 when the extractor roared back to life. Frankly, I thought we were staying next to an aircraft engine test bay. Due to limited text insufficient space to provide how shockingly bad the food in the restaurant was and our experience but further details can be provided upon request.

Firstly the hotels location, the staff, the room cleanliness, the bed comfort, and the hotels restaurant are excellent. However it was let down by my rooms location. Ensure when booking you are not given room 1. I booked for Sunday evening which usually isn't the busiest of nights. I booked through a well know hotel website and got a good deal but regardless of the deal room 1 is not worth it. The room is situated above the kitchen with the air con unit running. The speaker from the bar, the bass can be heard. This quietens down by 9pm. You are though woken at 7am when kitchen starts up for breakfast the next day. No chance of a lie in. What a disappointment after such great reviews for the hotel. Room 1 should not be allowed to be booked out. It damages hotels reputation. I'm sure seeing where the other rooms are, there would be no issue, as along the corridor. Just don't stay in room 1. I did ask to change the room as soon as I noticed when I arrived but was told a ridiculous amount money it would cost as need an upgrade. The WiFi is free but not secure. To top it off please also note that room 1 has no views. No views of the countryside just the kitchen roof and red bins. I've stayed in a lot of hotels and have not been more disappointed by the room.

My 3-night stay in January was nothing short of wonderful. My room was extremely well appointed and comfortable, with a lovely bathroom. The restaurant food was excellent both for breakfast and dinner and all the staff were so friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. The location for me was great as I had family in Colne and we did some travelling to the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. This characterful hotel, built originally in 1725, is in the countryside' with a view of the famous Pendle Hill, but is a reasonably short ride from Central Colne. It is highly recommended.

The quality of everything was excellent. This hotel deserves its 4 stars. The customer service was first class, their knowledge and expertise, with food and drinks are visible in every detail. The decor is warm and welcoming, the wood burner was constantly tended makings the lounge areas cozy and warm. There is a welcoming atmosphere and I highly recommend.

Rural location minutes out of Colne centre. Impressive characterful mullion windowed property on two floors with excellent 1entrance and bar area. Plenty of seating for diners inside and out. Good menu on pricey side though. Venue for weddings and parties. Steep staircase to upper floor.

Stunning views to Pendle Hill from our room, friendly staff and an excellent dinner and breakfast. This was a much-needed short getaway and, with a great day’s walking today during which we hardly saw soul, was everything we’d hoped for. We will return.

Location was beautiful, Check in was easy, The bar area and restaurant looked lovely as both areas had log fires roaring, and were decorated very tastefully for Christmas, which gave a lovely welcoming vibe, the room was spotless, bedding was of good quality, the room was very peaceful, with no annoying extractor fan from the bathroom, which you get in a lot of hotels, Also the room was nice and dark, which helped with a really good nights sleep. Evening food was excellent, as was breakfast, the lady we saw at breakfast both days was lovely, friendly and extremely helpful, nothing was too much trouble. We will be back for another stay hopefully soon.

My wife and I had dinner both evenings of our stay. On the 2nd evening my choice of 7oz fillet steak was unavailable so I opted for 10oz rib eye. Unfortunately the quality of the steak was poor - chewsome to the extreme! Very disappointing. We have been staying at the Alma for over 40 years and the steak on previous occasions has always been excellent.

We had a great stay at the Alma inn. We stayed from Wednesday to Sunday during the Open at Royal Birkdale. This was the perfect place for us to commute to the Open, but also pull away from the crowds. We thoroughly enjoyed the views of the landscape, the breakfast as well as the terrace for a drink and dinner in the lovely summer weather. The the staff was great. They helped us out arranging breakfast earlier than normal, so we could get to the Open. Can really recommend the place, also for exploring the lancashire area, go on golf trips or alike. 10 out of 10.
