Hillcrest house

B&B was in a good location and walking distance to restaurants pubs and the Castle. The people who run the B&B are very nice and helpful and make a good breakfast. But the accommodation was very dated late 60s/70s our room was in need of a good vacuum and dusting although the bedding was clean and the bed was comfy. The shower was in need of repair as the base was cracked and sealed with gaffer tape and covered with a non slip mat and the bathroom needs a good clean.

This is a great spot in a lovely castle town. We were in easy strolling distance to the beach, great dining options and of course the castle. Our hosts were friendly and welcoming.

A good stay.

The hosts were very accomodating. As well as the choices on the breakfast menu, we were also asked if we'd like something different.

We had a delightful stay! The house is super tidy and clean, the breakfast is outstanding and Mark and his dad were incredibly friendly and helpful. The house is within easy walking distance to Bamburgh Castle and all the shops and pubs in town. We would highly recommend staying.

Great stay in Bamburgh

Our host, Mark, was fabulous. Mark provided us with detailed check in information in advance of our stay and great tips on how we could make the most of our stay in Bamburgh. Our room was spacious and comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. Breakfast was plentiful and top notch. Thank you for a lovely stay Mark. We will certainly be back for another holiday

Lovely place

Mark was a great host - cooked breakfast was lovely and started the day right. The close location meant we could go straight to Bamburgh Castle for a lovely day. The room was spotless and bathroom massive. Will be back again.

Warm, friendly place in Bamburgh

Mark is a wonderful host. The room we stayed in had a lovely big tub and lots of very hot water. Breakfast lovingly prepared and delicious. Highly recommend for a sensible, comfortable stay very near to the center of the village and good eating options and pubs.

Very Disappointed and will not be back again

Really disappointed in the actual property/room on arrival. check-in was via a keysafe, no one else in the building and I took a chunk out of my thumb on the keysafe cover. The room was meant to be a Superior Room but it fell well-short of what I was expecting having read the reviews left by others. Cleanliness left a lot to be desired and a bracket that had presumably held a wall-mount for the TV was exposed and hanging off the wall, with a power supply cable from a retractable cable reel(safe??)poking through a makeshift drilled hole in a wardrobe unit servicing a very small TV standing on a set of drawers. There were no tumblers/glasses provided in the room or bathroom - Again not the 5star facilities we thought we were getting, I'm afraid. Finally to breakfast - although the cooked plate of food Malcolm served us was ok and Malcolm himself was a very pleasant person, I would not rave about the breakfast as others seemed to, and in conclusion I would definitely not be recommending Hillcrest House to anyone else

Wonderful

The quintessential B&B experience. From the checking in process to breakfast in the morning it was made to feel like we were a guest in a home, not a business. We loved every minute of it. Location is perfect for the Castle, beach and local businesses. Bed was very comfortable as was the downstairs living area. We didn’t want for anything. Street parking is a little hit or miss, but there isn’t anything our host can do about that, just be prepared for a little walk from your car to the front door depending on season and arrival time. Thanks to Mark and his father, we will be back again for sure.
