Good value stay

Our stay was good, the room was perfectly fine, clean and tidy. Had several areas of cosmetic damage that could be sorted out but otherwise all good. The breakfast was nice but the actual pub is tiny. Hardly anywhere to sit, more like the size of a living room. The restaurant is much bigger. The people were very friendly though. Dog friendly too.

I had 3 rooms booked for my colleagues and me for a business trip. The rooms were clean and nice however, we had some issues with the services received. We called ahead to inform the hotel of our arrival, only to be told that they do not serve food on Wednesdays. Later when we got to the hotel, we were informed that they will start breakfast until 8am. I travel frequently for work and have stayed in many hotels. Almost all start breakfast at 6:30, with latest being 7:00. We had to leave at 7:30 for a meeting so we had to leave without breakfast which was included in the price. Additionally there was no phone signal in the hotel due to location and the wifi was also down so we could hardly do any work or even make calls.

Average accommodation without any luxuries.

Staff friendly and helpful. Room looked good on arrival but unfortunately not as comfortable as it looked and lacked any luxury touches. Mattress on the bed very saggy on both sides and raised in the middle, towels thin and worn, very basic tea and coffee in rooms. Bathroom fittings incomplete or missing. Breakfast “buffet” consisted of few cereas, potted yoghurts and fruit juice. Cooked food in evening and cooked breakfast satisfactory.

Dissatisfied

Do not book if you are wanting an overnight stay and use the pub restaurant facility’s midweek, especially as being in a village they don’t stick to opening hours and will close without notice. Ourselves and 2 other couples arrived straight off the ferry, tired and hungry looking forward to some food and a drink before bed. Pub closed! keys left in the door to enter our accommodation, we could of stopped of for food had we known that no one was going to meet us with the keys! Everything in the village close. We all went to bed early hungry, only 1 cup of tea each as only 4 milk portions were left out and of course no one available to ask for more. Spoilt the last night of our holiday!

The Anchor Inn is an absolute gem!

The Anchor Inn is an absolute gem! The rooms are a good size and well-appointed, if perhaps a little dated. Super friendly and accommodating staff, nothing was too much trouble. The real surprise was the restaurant. I would recommend trying out the food, even if you're not staying at the Inn. The food was locally sourced, all fresh and well prepared and presented. All in all a very pleasant two night stay. I would highly recommend, and have recommended The Anchor Inn to family and friends. This will now be my go to place to stay when in the Plymouth area.

Disappointing

Upon arrival we realised that the new owner was clearly in the midst of trying to finish refurbishing. Downstairs looked nice but had wet paint everywhere (which my husband got on his hoodie), with lots of noise of drilling and putting furniture together. We felt as if we were in the way and when we inquired about breakfast, which had been included with the booking, only then were we told that the kitchen wasn’t ready and we would have to go elsewhere for breakfast. Likewise, we would have to eat elsewhere for our evening meal. I had made the booking just the day before, hoping for a relaxing two night break, and the owner should have contacted me to say that no food would be available as clearly this impacted our stay significantly. To be told after we had arrived was very disappointing and I felt that he just wanted to keep our booking. The decor in our room was tired, the mattress was lumpy and the duvet almost too small for the bed. There was literally no storage furniture at all apart from a shelf next to the bed and some hooks on the wall. Also no hair dryer. There was noise from refurbishing downstairs and no soundproofing between the floors or the room next door. Because our room was above the bar there was then noise from the bar until 12.30am. We were reimbursed for the cost of having to purchase our own breakfasts elsewhere, but all in all it was a poor stay, with poor attitude and the comfort of the room was not thought through. I would not recommend.

Accueil très sympathique. Très grande chambre pour 3 avec une belle salle de bain. Le lit simple n'est pas très confortable (ressorts dans le matelas) mais le lit double très grand est apprécié. Nous avons diner au restaurant, plats très copieux et bons. Le petit déjeuner est simple mais correct. Petit parking. Le seul bémol, pas de réseau et un wifi qui ne fonctionne pas vraiment.

Very pleasant stay

The Anchor Inn is a little scruffy from the outside but don't let that put you off as the welcome inside is warm and genuine. The barman was charming and the locals and fellow residents all engaged in conversation. It's the type of establishment where everyone talks to each other and the dogs are fed treats. My room was clean and comfortable with a nice large walk-in shower with large pebbles on the bathroom floor which actually worked. The food, whilst nice, needs a few minor improvements. My pork belly came swimming in gravy which was absorbed by the creamy mash potato. Put the gravy in a jug so that the dish can be enjoyed without being drowned. Breakfast however was a disappointment and quite slow for someone staying on business. A single rasher of hard bacon that had all moisture removed without being crispy. The sausage was wet and flabby and no choice of egg. Given my genuine criticism, I liked the Anchor Inn and would definitely stay again due to its friendliness.

Unfortunately our bed broke, it had clearly been repaired previously- they moved us to another room which was fine. There were a lot of cigarette butts in the ashtrays on the picnic tables ( need emptying more regularly) also dog excrement in the car park! Pleasant staff, peaceful environment.

Fine for the money paid

Parking outside the room was great, but the condition of these outside rooms is not the best. It was bitterly cold when I arrived and the heating was set to low which is understandable, but it took a VERY long time for the tiny fan heater to warm the room. The central heating radiators were not working. Neither was the wifi which was really frustrating

BUSINESS TRIP ME ONLY

Great stay, not really too sure why people have left negative feedback for this place ? I can only imagine they have Rolls Royce taste & Skoda budgets as the saying goes ? Im a sales rep so i stay away quite a bit. yes this place isnt the most luxurious - but look at what you pay. It ticked all the boxes for me. & i stay away quite a bit. Yes the bar area is small ish, but that to me is an appeal. They have a larger restaurant area if that's better suited ? It was a cosy pub atmosphere. The food was very good.
