The Highfield Hotel

“Great staff friendly and good service ”

We went for a retirement lunch and we had a lovely meal with great service from staff. We pre ordered as there was a large group (over 15 people). All meals came correct and they were piping hot. Reasonable priced and good deals we also had lovely desserts

“What I needed”

I contacted The Highfield by email around the beginning of the year asking if they would be able to accommodate early check-in as I was flying in from the States for a friend's wedding nearby. They asked about what time I was thinking (about an hour and a half earlier), and confirmed I'd be good to go. Due to their prices being quite reasonable (for one person, especially), I proceeded to book one night. As the date of my stay drew near, my plans changed and I found myself needing an additional night. My reservation originally stated no amendments could be made. I reached out via email again and they immediately tacked on another night for me! The rate for that night was slightly cheaper as well. The day of, my flight was delayed so I ended up arriving a half hour later than intended. I was told my room was ready and handed a key with a note on the key card envelope, specifically noting my early check-in request (I very much appreciated that little detail for some reason - just my brain being weird). I was on the top floor. There is no lift. So if you have a lot of luggage, keep that in mind. I had a massive suitcase with me as I'm travelling for two weeks, but the stairs are on the shallow side since its an older building so it wasn't too bad. I booked a single. The room was perfect for one person. Bathroom wasn't cramped and nicely updated. All basic necessities were provided, and for me, the bed was comfortable enough. The only thing of note: There's plenty of seating, but they don't particularly have a lounge space with sofas or chairs. Not a big deal, but as an avid reader, sometimes a space to read with a beverage surrounded by the ambiance of a hotel lobby/restaurant is a vibe. Not too much to do in the area, but I booked for convenience of location based on my immediate need. Overall, highly recommend. Thank you for a cozy stay!

“Very reasonably priced meals in pleasant environment”

Large car-park which is a plus. Plenty of seating inside too. The Gents toilet takes a little time to locate. Menu very good indeed, something for everyone, varied and a large range. Reasonable prices and below average prices compared to rest of the country. The helpings are good too. I chose the... lisää

Large car-park which is a plus. Plenty of seating inside too. The Gents toilet takes a little time to locate. Menu very good indeed, something for everyone, varied and a large range. Reasonable prices and below average prices compared to rest of the country. The helpings are good too. I chose the Steak and Ale pie and it was moist and tasty, with plenty of gravy. Staff affable. The only let down was no real ale. It was removed 2 years ago as it doesn't sell. I find that odd. Whilst part of the town maybe deprived and known for poverty and social issues, real ale is not as expensive to drink as Lager, Guinness or Gin. Fizzy ale with air bubbles is just full of gas and no good to anybody. I would return here for the food range but would have to drink a soft drink.
