Hillcrest House Bed & Breakfast

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

Perfect stay in the best spot, what more can you ask for.

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.

A lovely, quaint B& B in the perfect location to explore Bamburgh. Breakfast was delicious, especially the Bamburgh Bangers and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Perfect stay - great breakfast and just all we wanted really.

I booked you as a mistake Expedia tried calling and reach out to you guys and never replied. I tried calling and never got a reply. You provided horrible service. Never available.

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.

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

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.

Lovely B&B excellent host, friendly and helpful, lovely breakfast

Affordable, quiet and close to main attractions of the area. I would definitely recommend.

Great to meet Malcolm. Both Malcolm and Mark could not be more helpful. Location very convenient for facilities and for the Castle. Very enjoyable breakfast too. We hope to return.

Great host and very easy to access.

The Hillcrest was friendly, warm clean and comfortable

Had a fantastic short break here. Definitely go back.

Mark and his son Joe couldn’t have been more hospitable.

Real good property to stay in, I couldn't fault anything. Property had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. Nice relaxed atmosphere and owners were brilliant. Will definitely stay again

Canny little B&B that's ticks all the essential B&B boxes just on the outskirts of Bamburgh, no issues, very quiet, Malcolm who did our breakfast was lovely and chatty. Parking could be an issue in busier months but that can be said for Bamburgh in general as it can get very busy. Good communication and instructions from them prior to the visit. Thank you!

Staff were all so kind and friendly

We woke up to a power cut which probably lasted most of the day. Mark however has an AGA which gave us a little warm.water but more importantly he had cooked us breakfast which was delicious and we had teapots of welcome tea! Thank you Mark for your kind hospitality!
