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.

6/10 Good

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.

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.

4/10 Fair

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.

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

Love this Inn!

What a wonderful place to stay! Staff was friendly and professional and fun. Very comfortable and a truly authentic experience. Highly recommend!

This was a very relaxing stay in a genuinely picturesque setting. Despite being a pub, it was quiet and I was never disturbed by noise. Only downside was I had difficulty getting WiFi in my room but was able to get it in the main section of the pub. Thank you for the caring hospitality.

We stayed for just one night to be in the Plymouth area the next day. Everything about The Anchor, the restaurant, room , the enormous breakfast which kept me going all day, the staff, and of course it's proximity to Plymouth was just what we wanted.

It is a lovely place to stay. The only thing I would request is a little added choice for a vegetarian who doesn’t eat mushrooms! But other than this will be staying again 😊

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.
Annika, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room is lovely, the staff are lovely but lately the bar has a lack of a few things which is not idea given the rooms have been fully booked. Breakfast is good but granary is not always granary and is basic thin brown bread!
