I would describe The Anchor as a gastro pub with rooms rather than an hotel. Rooms are adequate but nothing overdone. Bathroom was a bit dark, but the views from the bedroom to the sea and dunes was lovely. We were in the main building but there are chalet type rooms in the garden which looked fine when we went...

We spent three nights here earlier in the month. The welcome was friendly and hospitable; rooms were comfortable and the food excellent. More

Have stayed here a few times now and have never had a bad nights sleep or a bad meal. We stay in the chalets at the back of the pub and they have got better everytime, it is so peacful and quiet and you can have a nice drink outside once the kids are in bed. The food is lovely,... More

Took my Investment Club for a weekend celebration. 5 couples for 2 nights and 7 couples for 1 night. We were very well looked after and the laid back no rules approach suited us perfectly. We would definitely book again and have no hesitation in recommending this venue. More
