Had a short break at Highside(3 nights) and loved the place. I had the standard room at the back of the house, so no views unfortunately. The room was spotlessly clean, had a huge kingsize, comfortable, bed, and a cracking power shower. The room has been tastefully furnished, and the linen and towels better quality than usual B&B stuff. Tea/coffee/toiletries... more

Having fallen on Highsid Farm by accident, and reading the reviews, I thought I'd found a gem of a place, and I don't doubt that people have thoroughly enjoyed their stays there. I e-mailed Highside Farm last Sunday, receiving an automated response stating this was a working farm and it may take a few days to respond, therefore my patience... more

We have recently spent 4 nights at Highside Farm, and found it to be a great start to our holiday. We took residence in the luxury room, which was lovely, well finished, and had everything you could need. The bed was huge, you have plenty of storage, and a two seater sofa aswell. The bathroom had all the mod-cons (heated... more

We stayed at Highside Farm which was not only brilliantly located for our friends wedding at Armathwaite Hall but is absolutely beautiful. The rooms were immaculate and very comfortable, we were upstairs and had an amazing view over the lake. The breakfast was so delicious that we could not resist! and Debbie is a wonderful host (especially when we had... more

We are very regular visitors to the lakes, in particular Keswick and surrounding area, both as a couple and a family. We have stayed in many B and Bs and can say without fear of contradiction, this is the best. On arrival, Deborah, the host was very friendly, making us feel very welcome. We stayed for 2 nights in the... more

We are regular visitors to the lakes and are always looking for new and individual places to stay. We first heard of this B & B in Hunter Davies's Good Guide to the Lakes. We were very pleased with Highside Farm. The hostess was naturally friendly and we felt comfortable: good servcie but not intrusive and we stayed for 3... more

We really enjoyed our stay, everything we could hope for, so relaxing. The sun was out and we really enjoyed the garden swings, trampoline and football with a magnificent view of Bassenthwaite Lake. Our 4 year old especially enjoyed seeing their lambs being fed. Thankyou and see you next time! more

After spending the last few days at highside i felt i must compliment Deborah on her fabulous comfortable b&b. Im shocked at the previous review, i found the family room very comfortable and spacious with plenty of additional towels,infact we have never had such a well equiped family room on our travels, breakfast is spot on, and service is very... more

Let's get this clear. This is a good, clean, friendly and very nice place, in a lovely and quiet area but not exceptional as some other reviews suggest. I would be surprised if there aren't as good or even better places as B&Bs in the area. Our "family" room was quite small, but comfortable beds - if on the small... more
