I booked this b&b for me and my partner for a weekend break as a birthday treat, and to say it was a treat would be an understatement. We had the luxury of staying in the lake view superior accommodation and it was simply perfect. I am aware that the area and scenery alone works wonders on making a lovely... More

Myself and my husband stayed here over the Easter weekend. I would highly recommend this B&B. The room that we stayed in was Ullock Pike which is a large family room although there were only two of us, it was very spacious and immaculately clean. The bathroom was quite small but perfectly adequate with a shower rather than bath, there... More

We've just had a four night stay at Highside Farm with dear friends. We were given such a warm welcome by Martin, his wonderful family and his team of helpers and were made to feel very much at home. Our room was very clean and pleasantly decorated and I wish I could have brought the bed home with me -... More

Just returned home after our fourth stay at Highside Farm in the luxury which is at the rear of the property with it's own entrance. Spotlessly clean with kettle coffee,tea,hot chocolate and nor for getting the biscuits.Fab toiletries and shower that has good power. Breakfast very good and sets you up for the day. Well done Highside.

A comfortable traditional bed and breakfast with delicious breakfast. Wonderfull views. The web site photo is rather deceptive as it gives no indication of the busy road which runs right in front of the house and on our first night there I found the traffic disturbing, but by the second night it didn't bother me. The room was clean and... More
