Highfield Hotel & Restaurant

General information

The grand Victorian villa was built in 1885 using slate quarried in the Borrowdale Valley. It is beautifully proportioned and has many original features for you to enjoy.

We'd love you to join us and admire the magnificent views from every window, either looking down across the lake or up at the might mountains.

We're within a few minutes walk of the town centre and the Theatre by the Lake. We're also perfectly placed to be your base for mountain adventures in the Northern Lakes.

Relax and take in one of the finest views in England. You don't need to worry about parking because we've got a large private car park for you to use. And you'll enjoy the fresh air as the house is strictly no smoking.

We've got 18 warm and welcoming en-suite rooms that have been designed and furnished to make the most of their unique features.

Our bedrooms offer you the chance to sit in a turret, relax on a veranda or gaze from a balcony!

All our rooms have views of either the lake or the mountains. They're all en-suite, have a flat screen television and dvd player, ipod docking station, wifi, a radio alarm clock, direct dial telephone and tea and coffee making facilities.
