    confusing parking
    lack of cooking facilities

    Parking was confusing and challenging to navigate. I had trouble figuring out how to book my breakfast, which wasn't clear at first. The lack of cooking facilities was also quite disappointing during my stay.

    delicious breakfast
    confusing parking

    The breakfast options were delightful, particularly the in-room baskets filled with fresh local produce.

    Navigating the parking area was a bit confusing, and clearer signage would help streamline that process.

    Just back from Highside Farm, and what a gem! Loved the games room for the kids, and the breathtaking views made relaxing outside a dream. Deborah and her sons are incredibly hospitable, and local pubs nearby served up some tasty meals!

    external stairs

    A peaceful farm retreat

    Highside Farm was a true gem—clean, spacious rooms and stunning views of the lake. Deborah and her family were incredibly welcoming, ensuring we felt at home during our stay.

    Access to our room involved navigating some external stairs, which might be challenging for those with mobility issues. the courtyard parking could use clearer markings.

    games room
    beautiful views
    family bathroom
    parking confusion

    We had a fantastic time at the farmhouse! The games room was a hit, and the pet lambs provided endless fun for the kids. Relaxing outside was blissful with beautiful views all around. The family bathroom was a real perk for us. We loved visiting the local pubs for meals and Rookery Woods for some fun adventure time.

    One thing to note is the confusion around parking. make sure to clarify it upon arrival to avoid any hassle.

    beautiful views
    fresh cheese bread
    limited lake view
    noise issues
    lack of facilities

    The views from the room were stunning, although the lake view was limited to a small corner window. Enjoyed the fresh cheese bread for breakfast, adding a delightful touch to the stay. noise from the barn was noticeable, and the bedsite light flickered repeatedly, which detracted from the overall comfort. a lack of proper cooking facilities was a downside, making meal prep challenging.

    we had a great stay at highsides farm bed & breakfast. the superior king room was spacious and cozy, with a lovely comfortable bed. the location next to the farmhouse offered beautiful views, and the hamper breakfast was perfect for our early outings, replenished daily. we enjoyed good coffee selections in our room as well.
