This is a lovely, charming property in a lovely part of the world. The rooms were clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. The host was lovely and cooked breakfast daily to specification. I cannot fault any of this. However, the property is in need of maintenance and modernisation. The door handle to our room was broken and we only had one set of keys and the door could not be unlocked from inside. This meant that if one of us went out then we had to leave the door unlocked (in case of fire etc) but couldn't even close it properly. The towel rail in the bathroom was hanging off the wall and the shower was an overhead, rain style shower meaning I couldn't shower and keep my hair dry. Also, the TV was very small and we could not cast to it. In a location with nothing to do in the evenings, I would expect a better TV. Finally the WIFI was poor, we could use it to browse the web but little else, even the TV lost connection regularly. This is a lovely property with a lovely host but do be aware that there is little to do in the evenings, even if you choose to stay in and watch TV.

Lovely B&B with spacious rooms and bathroom. When we let the staff know we wouldn’t be having breakfast due to a 6AM departure, they insisted on having breakfast ready for us before we left. Breakfast was fantastic! So kind and generous. And Bamburgh Castle is just two minutes away.

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.
