The deadlock was deservedly broken on 54 minutes, when Laura Merrin's free-kick was headed home by Jenna Carroll at the far post.
It started a goal rush of three in 10 minutes, Bethany Donoghue taking Jess Holbrook's pass to fire into the bottom corner from the edge of the area just before the hour.
Hughes tested the keeper before Donoghue was brought down for a penalty calmly converted by Jodie Redgrave.
