Accommodation options if the student accommodation is full

Nelson, and Colne (which is also nearby) does not have a hotel, but there are lots of options nearby. Skipton has a Travel-lodge and is 20 mins away in the car. (Skipton is further north than Colne, if you are travelling from the south. En route, there are a lot of hotels, all the usuals, in Burnley, so this is definitely the best bet for convenience.  Its then basically a couple of junctions up the motorway, as Burnley is also just of M65 too.  Short journey - approx 15 mins drive to the lecture venue in Nelson, or 20-30 mins on the bus from Burnley.  Trains from Burnley go from Burnley CENTRAL, to Colne and take around 15 mins.  

 

I haven't tested out the local accommodation, so check reviews on airbnb or tripadvisor etc. 

 

There are some airbnb options in Colne.  Other local places within 10-20 mins driving / uber from Colne that have airbnb options include Foulridge, Trawden, Barrowford, and various locations in Pendle.  This is tourist country anyway - Pendle Witches, lots of walking tracks, plus near Skipton - gateway to Dales etc.
