Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise Highermead House's beautifully restored building and find the rooms spotlessly clean. The rooms are well-equipped, often including a microwave, fridge, and even a sink with utensils, allowing for comfortable self-catering; plus, details like smart TVs for Netflix add to the experience. The location is ideal for exploring, being a short walk into town and close to the castle inspiring the legend of King Arthur, with the added benefit of ample parking. While breakfast is an extra, some appreciate the option of having fresh milk provided daily, though one guest experienced an issue with the heating.
