We returned to High Side for a Spring Break with 2 friends, having previously visited with our teenage sons and as a couple. Every time we have enjoyed a warm welcome from Deborah and consistently high standards of cleanliness and quality food. We love to walk straight from the farm and this time enjoyed tracking the progress of the orphan... more

High Side Farm is a fantastic base to spend time in such a wonderful (and often less explored) part of the Lakes. The quality of the accomodation was second to none, and the welcome from Deborah was warm and very genuine. We were lucky enough to escape to this great B & B for 3 nights, staying in the extremely... more

Deborah and Martyn made us feel really welcome, including coffee on arrival and a lift down to the local on our first evening. A lovely room, with a firm and very comfortable bed - essential after a day's fell walking! Breakfast was very good. Highside is a 17th Century farmhouse that has been extensively renovated, but retains lots of period... more

If you're looking for something a little different from the normal Lake District terraced B&B then look no further than High Side Farm - this is a wonderful little home perched on the side of Skiddaw with great views out across the western flanks of the Lakes. The walks from the front door complement this Lakes base and helped make... more

We stayed in many five stars hotels, guesthouses during our 10 day trip in Europe and think it might be a good idea to stay in a "Farmhouse" in a beautiful area in Lake District, England. We were so lucky we found Highside Farm in Keswick. The only problem is that we arrived quite late and it was a bit... more

Having read great reviews and seen photos of the wonderful rooms, I decided that it would be a fantastic place to celebrate my girlfriends birthday over a couple of nights. We were not disappointed - the room, views and breakfasts were all lovely. Deborah is a wonderful host and makes you feel at home; nothing appears to be too much... more

Great room for 4 people en suite (couple + 2 kids)...with great views ! Very comfortable, excellent breakfast. By far the best B&B we have been in for the Lake District. A very friendly atmosphere. The kids say thanks for the trampolin ! Pedro, Quique, Katie & Nacho Altafulla SPAIN more

We have been to the Lake District on several occasions and had many memorable experiences. This is the best B&B accommodation that we have stayed in. We were lucky enough to stay in the "new room." It was beautifully decorated, with an adventurous streak!! The quality of the breakfasts and the hospitality are well documented and accurately portrayed. Deborah even... more

I have been in contact with Highside Farm owner Deborah for 3 weeks We waited to book as she said she had a great new room being finished and she could send pictures when it was done in a week. We went on holiday and 16 days later still no picture. After we returned from our holiday away, I then... more

Thank you for taking your time to put such an offensive reveiw about us. In response to your negative reveiw unfortunately I can not hold rooms while people decide which room they would like to stay in. As I can not send pictures before rooms are completed! If a booking had been made at the initial point of enquiry this...

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at High Side and have every intention of returning. The farm was very welcoming and comfortable, the rooms were delightful and exceptionally clean. Nothing was too much trouble for our host, Deborah, who cooked lovely breakfasts and provided packed lunches fit for a king. After a hard day's walking it was wonderful to spend the... more
