Highgate house Reviews

Excellent house and amenities, Excellent location for exploring the area.
Katarzyna
A beautiful home in an incredible location. It was spotlessly clean and had everything you could possibly need for a wonderful stay. The hot tub was clean and perfect for relaxing, and the bathrooms were spotless too. We highly recommend this place!
We had a fantastic stay at Highgate House. The property is stunning, with fantastic facilities and plenty of beds and bathrooms to comfortably accommodate a large group. Communication from the owner was excellent throughout and made everything really easy from start to finish. The views from the property are absolutely beautiful, especially overlooking the horses, and the outside space was a lovely place to relax. The large living area was perfect for everyone spending time together, and the pool table added a lot of fun to the stay. A really thoughtful touch was the cake provided by the owner on arrival, which everyone appreciated. Well definitely be booking again.
Jackie
Everybody was thrilled with this accommodation, grandma did a good job finding it. Accommodation was exactly as described. Plenty of room for 12. Piano, hot tub and pool table were well used throughout our stay. Wonderful memories made. No hesitation in recommending. Thank you Aoife for letting us share your home.
