My favourite day out for this section was to leave the route at Fairfield, go over St. Sunday and have a pint in the White Lion before getting the bus back from Patterdale to Pooley Bridge.
Dug out the (weekend) bus times in case anyone's interested for future reference
Bus 508, Patterdale Hotel depart 1009 1219 1509 1719, 27 mins to Pooley Bridge Crown Hotel
So the challenge for an 0500 start is to get down for the 1009 bus, or take a very long drink...
