One or two beams were rather low, but a few bumps on the head taught me to be more aware!

The breakfast was everything and more that one could wish for, served by Jane, the friendly host. The location is excellent for all parts of the Lake District, Grange, Cartmel and the Furness Peninsula. The bedroom was large and well furnished. We had interesting conversations with the other guests, including one couple who have been visiting for many years. That speaks for itself.

Beautiful room with very comfortable large bed and plenty of space for relaxing in the room on sofa and chairs. Excellent breakfast options were very tasty, especially the scotch pancakes with yoghurt and fresh fruit. The host Jane was very helpful and attentive.

I couldn't suggest anything to improve!

Honestly, everything. Jane was the best host, breakfast was incredible. A pot of tea and scones on arrival. The room was immaculate. I came to take part in The Lap, it is a perfect location and great place to relax and recharge after the event.

Jane made me feel very welcome and my bedroom was beautiful. It was a lovely surprise to be given tea and scones in the sunny conservatory when I arrived and the homemade flapjacks were a lovely treat.

Fantastic host and fantastic produce used for breakfast

Jane was certainly the hostess with the mostest, homemade scones with cream and jam and hot drink on arrival. Hill Crest did not disappoint and we hope to return again. Jane made our visit extra special, as it was for my husbands 60th birthday, balloons and banners in room on our return from day out. Hill Crest is spotlessly clean and you're always made to feel welcome

We stayed on Valentine's Day and what a lovely surprise when Jane showed us to our room! Heart shaped red balloons on the bed as well as a little garland of hearts strung abobve the bed and a dish full of lovely chocolates. Totally unexpected, but really lovely! We also appreciated the lovely scones on arrival and the home baked flap jack the following night! Little touches, but really set this guest house apart. The breaKfast was excellent - plenty of choice - fresh fruit, granola, yogurt and choice of a cooked breakfast, again with plenty of choice including smoked salmon which was lovely and fruit juice, toast, tea, coffee etc. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. Jane was a super host, very friendly and chatty and I wouldn't hesitate in staying thee again!

Nothing to dislike just perfect

Upon arriving we was greated by Jane and made to feel very welcome and then shown to our lovely and clean large bedroom where there was a few surprises(freshly made tea and scones,chocolates,tea,coffee,bottled water and even love heart balloons for valentines day)in the room there was everything you'd want and more fresh soft towels,fresh dressing gowns and slippers,tv,mini fridge and a very comfy bed.The breakfast was very nice and freshly cooked with juice,tea or coffee. The area in which its situated is perfect for a very peaceful and relaxing break with off road parking . So as a whole our 2 night stay was just perfect as we didn't know what to expect as not stayed in a bed and breakfast before only hotels but hillcrest country guest house was far more better than any hotel as more personal. Thankyou again Jane for our lovely stay in your beautiful guest house

Jane the owner is a fantastic host. Wonderful breakfast, scones and flapjacks to be had. A great location for exploring the Lakes.

Beautiful home with a private guest loungeroom and conservatory where we were served breakfast each morning. Food was just perfect, and we could choose from the menu each night to wake up to great food tge next day. Location is a short drive to the main areas of Lake Windemere. Great value for money, clean and comfortable.

Our room was overlooking the landscape, stunning. Waking up to the beautiful scenery daily was like the breath of fresh air. It is still lingering after 5 days of being home. Falling asleep as your head touches the pillow is what a holiday should be like. A comfortable sleep. Having a mini fridge in our room was a plus.5☆, and having bottles of water every day reminded us to keep hydrated. Our hostess Jane was very lovely with a wealth of knowledge of the places to visit and attentive to our needs. The breakfast was amazing. You were spoilt for choice with various selections. Full english breakfast can be done bespoke too. Please don't scroll past Hill Crest Country Guest House. You'd be missing out!

Absolutely nothing!

We had such a comfortable and friendly stay at Hill Crest Country Guest House, a place that provides so much more than the sum of its parts. Our room was clean, cosy, well equipped and with our own lounge area to extend into. A perfect blend of privacy and belonging, with wonderful touches of flapjacks and cakes to enjoy. There were many breakfast options, all promptly and freshly made each morning after choosing ahead. Jane thinks of everything to make a stay comfortable, including welcoming family staying nearby, and providing helpful insights and knowledge on places to go and see. The B&B is five minutes drive from the southern end of Windermere, but with many local charms including river walks and the Steam Railway. A perfect location to base your time in the Lake District. We would not hesitate to stay again and wholeheartedly recommend.
