From mindful mat time to merry melodies, Yorkshire’s favourite luxury boutique hotel unwraps wellness, wit, and winter wonder
The Highfield, one of Yorkshire’s most distinctive luxury boutique destinations, is marking the festive season with a campaign that’s equal parts wellness, wit, and winter escape, because who says Black Friday can’t come with a side of calm?
Wellness Wednesdays with Heart…and Hall
In a move that proves self-care doesn’t always have to come with a price tag, The Highfield is opening the doors of its beautiful Great Hall for a month of free private hire on set weekdays, offered to a chosen local wellness venture.
Whether you’re leading a yoga retreat, sound bath, digital detox, or even a “brain bootcamp”, The Highfield wants to hear from you. The team is looking for creative, restorative, and community-minded ideas that bring authentic wellness to East Yorkshire: from high-tech glow-cations to good old-fashioned ‘peace and quiet’, this is a move designed to offer support to the local community and provide a beautiful space for a deserving business.
Local practitioners and wellness collectives are invited to apply by getting in touch directly. *

The offer is exclusive to mailing list members from November 21–26, then open to everyone on November 27–28. For more details (and to take a look at what’s on offer), visit the official website and social media channels.
A Beautiful Christmas – by Candlelight
On December 19, The Highfield invites guests to slow down and savour the sparkle. From indulgent festive menus to cosy fireside gatherings, every detail has been designed to make the season feel effortlessly elegant.
On December 19, the Great Hall will host a very special Carols by Candlelight, featuring the spellbinding Edwina Hayes, whose voice has been called “the sweetest in England” by the late Nanci Griffith.
With a voice that melts even the frostiest December night, Edwina Hayes – who graced stages from Glastonbury to The Royal Albert Hall, supported Van Morrison, Jools Holland, and Nanci Griffith, and even lent her voice to Hollywood – brings her effortless charm to The Highfield this Christmas.
Yorkshire is where Edwina calls home after all, and The Highfield’s Carols by Candlelight is set to be a truly heartfelt homecoming. Expect timeless songs, twinkling lights, and the kind of festive feeling that can’t be wrapped.
