Highfield Holidays are a great way to enjoy one of the most beautiful and scenic areas of Cumbria, a stone's throw away from the border city of Carlisle, overlooking the Solway coast.
Walk along Hadrians Wall and follow in the footsteps of the Roman
legions who once populated the region, enjoy the wildlife and birdlife
on Burgh Marsh bordering the Solway Firth or the challenge of the tidal
sea fishing or perhaps bring your horse and lose yourself in the 300
acres of Highfield Farm, where a 4 mile farm ride and solidly built
cross country schooling course offer safe, off road riding with
something for everyone.
