"Atmospheric accommodation in a wonderful part of Devon"
The Anchor Inn is a lovely historic building in Hartland with real ale and very friendly hosts. The vegetarian breakfast was perfect and vegetarian options were available for the evening meal as well so no problems for the enlightened ones who eschew meat. Read less
Likes:
The room was quiet and private so there was no problem with disruption from the bar. Of course, the bar was a major attaction in itself and did not disappoint: real ales, good food, and an open fire.
Dislikes:
None

Likes:
Convenient location.
Dislikes:
Lack of control & supervision of other resident's ability to ransack our pre-booked room!
Response from The Anchor Inn:
Sorry to hear your short stay was not a good one. I did appologise about towels and did not know about paper till I cleaned your room next day. I accept it was my own fault fpr not locking the door prior to your arrival, but I have never had guests enter other rooms before I will ensure they are kept locked in future as for shower we have never had a problem before and if guests dont report problems we cant do anything to help. there is a spare bathroom and shower room on same corridor
