2/10 Poor

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.

Nice little Bamburgh B&B
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!

Always a lovely stay.
A typical cozy British bed and breakfast. I love how intimate it feels. Being a family-run business also makes it feel like they truly care.

Hillcrest House was a nice place to stay in Bamburgh for a couple of nights. The castle and beach were within easy walking distance. The room was a decent size and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast was cooked to order in the morning and was very nice. The owners were very friendly and happy to help. Couldn't park in front of the property as the town was pretty busy, but we managed to park close by around the village green, a couple of minutes walk away

A very quaint little B&B. Check-in instructions were clear and easy to follow. Bathroom could use a few updates but the overall look adds to the charm. Breakfast in the morning was quite lovely. Would definitely stay here again.

8/10 Very good

Hillcrest House was clean and comfortable. The area was fairly quiet and it was convenient for visiting the castle.The breakfast was very good too. The on-street parking was quite busy when we arrived, but it eased off once the day-trippers had gone and we were able to move the car a bit closer.

We stayed for one night in room 1. The room view was pleasant looking over fields with the sea in the distance. Bed was king size and very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent and cooked fresh by the most welcoming host Mark.

2/10 Poor

Not good at all.
Awful check in, talking through an intercom! No other communication! NO PARKING, when the advert said parking, and we were supposed to have a sea view, but we overlooked the street. Average breakfast. Hundreds of people everywhere and hundreds of cars due to tourists visiting the castle. Awful experience.
