Highfield Guesthouse

Highly recommended guest house. Stayed for 2 nights from 28th Dec. Debbie was a superb host, nothing was any trouble. Nice and cosy rooms that were always warm and tidy. Comfortable bed with clean sheets, great breakfast choice. The guesthouse is in a great location for town centre, 2/3 minute walk where there is plenty to see and do. Lovely walk around the back of castle, take boots as can get quite muddy. Once again we loved our first visit to Skipton which was made better by where we stayed. Will be back.

Highfield House is in a great location just a couple of minutes walk into the town centre which was lovely. There was on street free parking outside and in the road to the side of the hotel. The owner was so friendly and welcoming, giving us some helpful information about pubs and restaurants in the vicinity. The room was really clean and had a tv, fridge, fan, large wardrobe, full length mirrors in room and bathroom, tea/coffee facilities and hairdryer. There were biscuits and soaps/shower gels and clean towels. The bed was super comfortable and I slept really well. I’ve seen some comments about road noise and whilst we were in room 5 which is next to the road, we didn’t experience any issues. I think the only thing I would say is that the room decor could do with a bit of an update but that didn’t take away from our stay. The breakfast was fantastic with lots of choice including various cereals, toast and jams, full English, scrambled eggs or beans on toast. There was also fruit, yoghurts and fruit juice. It was in a room in the basement which also had a nice snug area with tv. We both had the full English and I have to say that we’ve stayed in a lot of hotels/B&M’s and this was one of the best we’ve ever had - for £7.50 we felt it was incredibly reasonable as we also had cereals and could’ve had anything else that was there. Overall we were extremely impressed with our stay from the lovely host through to the food and accommodation and should we ever stay in Skipton again, would absolutely book in at Highfield House. Highly recommend!

Excellent amenities and location. Debbie was lovely and really helpful, giving advice on the local area. Always tea and biscuits in the room and a really comfortable bed. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.
