Adults-only hotel on The Heads in Keswick with 18 rooms looking out over the lake and mountains beyond the town.
About Highfield
Walk into a room at Highfield and the first thing you notice is the space and the view: generously sized rooms with en-suite bathrooms, drinks provided, and windows that make the most of the mountain and lake scenery around Keswick. This is an adults-only hotel, so it suits guests after a quieter stay, and with 18 rooms spread across two floors it stays small enough to feel personal.
Breakfast is a highlight, with a generous spread served each morning, and there's a bar and garden with outdoor seating for relaxing afterwards. Staff run a 24 hour reception, free on-site parking is available, and the hotel has free WiFi and luggage storage for those coming and going. Pets are welcome too, for those who don't want to leave the dog behind.
The hotel sits on The Heads, within easy reach of Keswick town centre and Theatre by the Lake, with walking and cycling country on the doorstep and golf, fishing, horse riding and watersports all nearby. Pubs and restaurants in the area mean guests aren't limited to eating in, though the breakfast alone is worth staying in for.

What guests say
This is an absolutely lovely hotel. Check-in was super easy, free parking is a massive bonus, self-serve breakfast (cereal, fruit, yogurt) plentiful, fluffy towels, really pleasant decor and music, seating areas with gorgeous views, and most importantly, the beds were super comfortable, with lovely sheets and pillows. Absolutely zero complaints. Wonderful location too. Will definitely be back.

Absolutely stunning. We stayed in room 5 which had a balcony with an amazing view. Everything is so well thought out with the honesty bar and breakfast area. Just a 2 minute walk to the centre with the added bonus of a large car park to the rear .Fantastic hosts, will definitely be back soon. Thankyou for a wonderful stay

My favourite hotel in the lakes. Awesome view, great food, kind people, relaxing vibe. For some unknown reasons the website is not available now, but would recommend it to everyone if there would be the same people and service would be provided.

Only issue that I have with the hotel is the room that we were given. The turret room is very small ( compared to other rooms on the second floor). The bed was also very small. I do not think that this room was worthy of the price tag attributed to it, which was the same price as the other rooms which were far superior.
