Anchor Hotel and Seabed Restaurant

Hotel is located on the harbour front with easy parking Nice viewright outside the hotel. We were in room 2 which has beautiful views of the harbour. Room was compact as was the bathroom. No where to put personal wash bags. It had a rusty towel rail which wasn’t working. The bed was comfortable and warm once we had located a polar throw to put on the bed as the heating wasn’t working. Food in the restaurant was good for dinner and breakfast. Nice friendly staff.

The room was clean and comfortable, as was the bathroom. Best of all was the breakfast, cooked to order. And the staff couldn't have been more welcoming. I'll say again.

One night stay thank god. Rooms are awful. Electric radiator is broken. No heated towel rail so at 6 degrees outside the room was cold. Bed is hard and the duvet was a summer duvet. Dust, dirt and stains everywhere. Bathroom so small you couldn’t swing a cat and no where to put your toiletry bag other than the floor. Extractor in bathroom is just a hole with a towel stuffed in it. See photos. I would avoid it. On the plus side the restaurant was good.

We arrived soaked after a lengthy bike ride and wanted to get into a warm bedroom as quickly as possible. There was no-one on reception and instead I had to wait rather too long for one of the overworked waiting-on staff to appear and check us in. The room was cold. There was no information at all so we weren’t able to get any heat with asking further. We were also advised to not even bother with the towel rail as none of them worked in the hotel. All far from ideal when you’re trying to dry out soaking clothes. The tap was very loose and worst of all there was a huge crack right across the seat of the toilet. Totally unhygienic. I mentioned it when we went down again and was thanked for telling them - but it clearly wasn’t going to be fixed for us. The room should stayed unused until it had been fixed. There was also only one, tiny shower gel and one tiny shampoo between the two of us. You get the picture. The food in the Seabed Restaurant was reasonable but was not a patch on the standard when we ate there last two years ago.

The restaurant in the Anchor hotel was a relavation! Lovely staff, fabulous food, good wine list and nice decor. We highly recommend trying the venison and the smoked haddock risotto, both delicious and beautifully presented. Not to be missed.

Superb venue with free car parking opposite the hotel next to the harbour. The Breakfast was excellent and we went to the Restaurant for an evening meal which didn’t disappoint. The Staff especially Ghosh were excellent and provided very attentive service. Unfortunately the WiFi in the Room was absolutely dire and failed to work . We did mention this on two occasions but nothing was done to improve the situation. We did expected some form of compensation for this but nothing was done. This marred our stay and we left with some disappointment……..
