Stayed 29th January in the Primrose Room
Absolutuely fantastic in every way - Rooms fantastic food fantastic
personality of owners fantastic.
Cleanliness superb - decor tasteful (and I am fussy!).
Attention to detail excellent - i.e. fresh milk in fridge in room, hot
toast for breakfast usually toast is brought in at the start of breakfast
and put on the table so by the time you want to eat it it is cold. All
tastes catered for - vegetarian breakfast - meat cooked in separate pans!
We shall certainly be regular visitors!
Suggestions: Other places with this very high standard charge much more. I think if you increase your prices you would still get your regulars - we would certainly pay more!!!

Ditto to all the reviews, warm and friendly hosts, great food. House a
total opposite to mine: clean, tidy, beautifully warm, artistic decor,
lots of light, a wonderful view of the hills even from the bed (if you can
get your partner to open the curtains). The only place I have slept with a
bed more comfortable than my own.
I predict the following: the removal of this B&B from the web as they have no need to advertise visitors rebook it will require at least 2yrs advance booking and they will have to increase the tariff to get a break.
Suggestions: If you increase your rates you might not get such nice guests! Your tariffs are excellent for what you provide and the standard of the accommodation. There is no point seeking 5* status unless you are intending to increase your tariffs and make more work for yourselves.

We had a very enjoyable stay at the Highlands. This is one of the best B&Bs that we have stayed at. Our room was very comfortable. The house, its furnishings and carpets are pristine. Lynn and Alan made us feel very welcome and went out of their way to assist us in every way they could. We will be going back!

This was our second stay with Lynn & Alan and will be our last because we liked it so much, we've bought a house in Church Stretton!
Lynn & Alan are very warm, welcoming and jovial hosts; we had plenty of enjoyable chats and laughs and they are a mine of local information. The accommodation at Highlands is first class and the rooms very thoughtfully appointed. The breakfast choice should satisfy any taste and nothing seems too much trouble. On top of this, the views are spectacular and they are developing a wonderful garden. We strongly recommend this accomodation to anybody wishing to stay in this area.

If you are looking for a first class B&B don't miss this one. Exceptional in every way with stunning views of the Long Mynd, great breakfasts, lovely decor, maps of the area for walkers or cyclists. This is certainly the place to be for a wonderful break.

Stayed at various times in the Primrose Room
Highlands is one of those places that makes you feel relaxed as soon as you cross the threshold. Ambiente, spacious bright and comfortable, it is a diamond.
The views are breathtaking, and the beautiful grounds merge in to the natural raw beauty of the Stretton Hills giving the impression of an infinity garden. The locally sourced breakfast is of the highest quality as is the accommodation and the complete freedom and warm welcome which is second to none. It is like that family feeling of coming home, which is why we return year after year.

Our first stay with Lynn and Alan, which won't be our last. Already booked for 2010. The best B&B we have ever stayed in. Everything about it was perfect - the rooms, food and Lynn and Alan are wonderful hosts, with great sense of humour. We had some really good laughs with them. Didn't want to leave.

What a gem! A warm welcome from Alan and Lynn who have thought of everything to make a perfect place to stay. A very large comfortable, extremely clean room with lovely view. Good choices for a delicious breakfast. We had a great weekend. Thank you.

This was my third stay with Lynn and Alan in their fantastic home. Great humour, good food and views to die for. Hope to be back in 2010 for more model flying on the Mynd. Thanks, Colin

A beautiful place to stay. Our room was spacious and tastefully decorated and the en suite immaculate with an excellent shower. The welcome we received was warm, and the hospitality of Lynn and Alan very friendly and informative. The view from the bedroom was outstanding. We hope to return before long.

Lynn and Alan made our stay worthwhile and the best so far without a doubt. The room was very spacious, bright and airy with french doors which opened into a beautiful and well kept garden. The private terrace has lovely views of the hills emphasising peace and tranquility.
Lynn's emphasis on cleanliness is not only evident in the bedroom but throughout the accommodation. Excellent breakfast with well appreciated flexible breakfast times, again courtesy of the ever cheerful Lynn.
Alan was fantastic throughout our stay, from the moment he offered to pick us from the station to the day we left. He is very knowledgeable about the area. Lots of brochures on activities such as walking, cycling also eating out and lot more which we found very helpful.
Lynn and Alan you are exceptional hosts and you made our stay memorable. Thank you for your warm welcome and hospitality.

Lynn and Alan are a friendly couple who make you feel very welcome. They go out of their way to provide everything you need to enjoy your stay with them.
The rooms are beautifully decorated and furnished making visitors feel at home. The first floor room has a spacious bedroom with an ample ensuite and is charmingly decorated in shades of lilac. The ground floor room has a beautifully funished ensuite - the magnolia room. The lower ground floor room has access to a terrace from which you can view the beautifully landscaped garden. This room has an ensuite with bath and shower. Each of the rooms has a small fridge with fresh milk provided daily, along with a generous hospitality tray.
The meals are expertly cooked and utilise local produce. There is ample choice of cereals, fruit juice and fruit salad, with the cooked breakfast well up to home cooked standard. If evening meals are required the standard again is very high.
The house is in a pleasant location within easy reach of the town centre and is ideal for exploring the beautiful countryside. We have visited Highlands on several occasions varying from one to five nights and have always been enchanted both by the hosts and their beautiful house.

Truely a wonderful experience. Room was large and had marvelous views towards the Long Mynd. Breakfast was delicious. Alan and Lynn were very welcoming. We are coming again in October and bringing our friends. One of the best B&Bs we have ever stayed in.
