Top Places and Services in Alicehead

Staying nearby for the week up from London, found this lovely place. The breakfasts were amazing, scrambled egg in particular. Loads of tasty treats such as Bakewell slices, chocolate fudge brownies to munch on too. Farm shop was great, could’ve spent a fortune! We got some steak pies which were delicious, big chunks of soft steak and lovely gravy. We’ll be back!

Highfield House Farm Shop was an absolute lifesaver during lock-down, when they transformed into an all-singing, all-dancing shop where you could buy pretty much everything you needed. Their range is still brilliant and every Thursday, just after lunch, "Shaun the Fish" turns up in his van with his catch from the boats in Grimsby to sell delicious fish. Josh and his band of merry brothers and sisters at HHFS are all charming, knowledgeable and skilful. Particular faves for me are their lamb cutlets and - every few months - they have heritage breed Dexter cuts available. Josh also gets the veggie haggis for me, which I love (apols to all those true haggis lovers). But, this weekend, we had a very special treat indeed. They'd made hot water crust Dexter meat pies. OMG - these were sensational. Well, it was. The meat was cooked low and slow - the gravy ooooozed out and was rich and deeply flavoursome, pastry the right balance of crispy and soft. I have a mind to now only serve these to guests. Super reasonable at £6 per pie with masses to go round 2 people. This is an absolute must (but please don't buy them all before I get back to them). Bravo my friends :-)

Second visit to the farm shop. Good selection of produce and fresh meat. Friendly staff and very reasonable prices. Certainly visit again when staying in the area again

Lovely cafe spot, perfect for a bite midday. 10 of us (5 kids and 5 adults) were seated quickly and served promptly. The homity pie was great and all the kids loved the bacon baps.

The butcher and farm shop was well stocked and friendly, we will definitely stop by again soon.

Wonderful cafe and farm shop. Great pork pies. Cakes and breakfast available. Big car park. Friendly staff. Lovely rural location. Highly recommended. Great views.
