What some of our visitors have said...

'We love our annual visit to Hillcrest which always proves a much needed relax in a perfect cottage.
Glenda always makes sure to the cottage is perfect as a peaceful and comfortable little haven of rest.
The cottage is well equipped and always presented to a high standard'.

'We have been visiting the Dales for 18 years now and have had a variety of self catering cottages, Hillcrest Cottage is the very best for the views, its location and home comforts. Also, and equally important the costumer care we received from Glenda was first class throughout from booking the cottage to actual staying there. This will be our permanent place to stay. Thank you so much Glenda'.

'Booking was very easy and there were quick responses to any questions. Hillcrest feels warm and homely and an excellent base for accessing the beautiful Dales.It is very well equipped and dog friendly.

About Chris and Glenda Calvert...

"Of all the great Dales, Swaledale seems to come nearest to one's idea of a pure, unsullied Dale..."

We are a local couple living at the head of Swaledale. Recently Chris ‘retired’ from farming and we moved away from the farm to a cottage near Keld.
Chris has farmed all his life, as have generations of his farm before him. He has, however, roots in Low Row as his great, great grandfather was a lead miner living in a property very close to Hillcrest. Perhaps that was the extra ingredient that made us fall in love with Hillcrest Cottage.
Retirement is loosely defined for farmers! Most days Chris can be found back on the family farm, helping out where and when he can. However, since retiring Chris is now able to indulge his other passion; vintage tractors.
He enjoys tractor runs and organises the biannual Keld Charity Tractor Run.
Semi retirement suits us both. In addition to looking after Hillcrest Cottage I have two Herdwick sheep, I enjoy exploring the dales on foot and the challenge of long distance walking.
I write a popular blog about life in Upper Swaledale. In addition to posts about farming and living in the hills, you will find posts describing lots of local walks. Illustrated with photographs I hope they inspire you. The blog is full of suggestions & ideas of what our guests might like to do and see.
Take a look. I hope you enjoy it.
