Julie
Our hosts at Highfield Farm were welcoming and friendly. Basic essentials plus cake were more than appreciated. The cottage was well equipped and very comfortable and met all our requirements. Couldnât have wished for more except for some better weather! Great food at The Red Lion & The Countryman nearby. Can thoroughly recommend these two places. All in all a wonderful experience. Thank you once again.
