A Country House with a Story to Tell

Originally built in 1864 as a romantic gift from one man to his beloved wife, The Highfield has been reimagined with the same spirit of devotion by husband-and-wife duo, Andy and Lindsey Lampard. Today, this grand merchant’s residence stands as an award-winning private retreat — named in the MICHELIN Hotel Guide - an exclusive home of refined hospitality in the heart of the Yorkshire Wolds.

Behind its black and white façade lies a discreet and luxurious country escape. With just twelve individually designed rooms — each thoughtfully themed with vintage charm, rich textures, and luxurious details — a delicious restaurant, cocktail bar, curated boutique, and indulgent treatment room, The Highfield offers everything from intimate stays to private house hire — all under one elegant roof. We welcome well-heeled travellers, families, dogs, dreamers and doers — but above all, those seeking something a little more exceptional.

Perched on the edge of the charming market town of Driffield, and within easy reach of East Yorkshire’s wild coast and hidden countryside, The Highfield blends antique flamboyance with a deep love for craftsmanship, cuisine and British creativity. This is not just a hotel. This is The Highfield — where heritage meets indulgence, and timeless moments are made. Join us and experience a stay like no other — your private country escape awaits.
