Highfield Hotel Review

Constructed in the late 1880s, two former private residences have been skillfully converted into this well-run hotel. The houses were built to take full advantage of mountain and lake views. A veranda, balconies, turrets, and bay windows characterize the architecture. A 5-minute walk from the center of town, the house is furnished in a traditional British way. All the bedrooms are good size and handsomely decorated, many with bay windows where you can sit and soak up the view. The most magnificent room is the spacious and elegant Woodford Room, with a four-poster bed and raised seating area. The main dining room is elegant yet informal with daily-changing menus, using, whenever possible, the best of local produce, such as Borrowdale salmon.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
