Booked the luxury lake view room, detached from rest of farm house, can relax without disturbing other guests, especially when using the in room DVD, flat screen TV and surround sound system. Deborah was very welcoming & we can understand why many guests return. Room was exceptionally well decorated with lovely furnishings. Breakfast was first class & set you up... More

We had a lovely time with Deborah. We were a party of seven, 2 grandparents (disabled), 2 adults, 3 children. The grandparents had a perfect room for them on the ground floor with a large shower, we had two bedrooms in the main farmhouse with wonderful views towards the lake. The rooms were warm, comfortable and clean. The breakfasts superb!... More

My husband and I have just returned from a couple of nights at Highside Farm. The first night we stayed in the 'luxury room' which is located in a converted barn, the room was large with a sitting area and large TV, it was slightly dusty in places, and I did find it unusual to find my clothes sharing the...

This is without a doubt a much better option than staying in a hotel - the luxury room was very comfortable, very well equipped and perfectly relaxing. The location is beautiful with easy access to explore the rest of the lakes. Deborah made us feel very welcome and cooked a hearty breakfast to set us up for the day. We... More

High Side is a really lovely B&B near Keswick in the Lake District. The house is easy to find and in a fantastic location between Bassenthwaite Lake and Skidaw. We arrived early evening and received a warm, friendly welcome from the hostess who immediately made us feel at home. Great breakfast to set you up for the day and clean... More

From the moment we arrived,in a cloud of steam!, nothing was to much trouble for Deborah. This includes having the AA van blocking the farm yard whilst fixing our car! The classy but still cosy accommodation was spotless. Would we book again, oh yes indeed! As for the 2 poor reviews perhaps they stayed at another Highside Farm as their... More

We booked at the last minute and got the opportunity to stay in the Luxury Room for 2 of our 3 night stay. The Room is very nice and has every convenience, the water pressure in the shower is not brilliant but suspect that is probably just the practicalities of sighting a shower in an annexe. I personally found the... More
