What guests think
Across recent reviews of Anchor Inn, travelers highlight friendly, accommodating staff, a cozy pub atmosphere, dog-friendly touches, and a picturesque village setting that works well as a base for Dartmoor and the wider area.
Rooms are generally comfortable and sometimes spacious, though several note dated decor, occasional maintenance problems such as broken beds, heating or hot water outages, and patchy in-room Wi-Fi. Food and breakfast receive frequent praise, but reviewers mention limited menus or choices for some diets, occasional bar stock gaps, slow or disappointing breakfasts, and rare midweek closures. Cleanliness is mixed: rooms are often clean, yet outside areas and minor fixtures can feel untidy or tired. Expect a friendly, good-value village inn with character and some inconsistencies.

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

The bar area was stylish and welcoming with a warming fire. The staff were friendly and accommodating which gave a relaxed atmosphere. Food was great (1 Sunday roast and 2 steaks) and reasonably priced. We had a 1 night stay in a courtyard room which was a good size and perfect as we had a dog with us. A decent breakfast set us up for the next day. Highly recommend.

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.

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.

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.

Nice quaint pub/hotel in very small pretty village. We stayed in a family room which was spacious and we parked in the hotel car park but it would have been easy to park nearby otherwise. We didn't book a table on arrival so couldn't eat at the pub that evening, managed to get a reservation in the neighbourhood pub. Enjoyed breakfast, nicely decorated dining area. Staff were helpful and friendly. Couldn't access WIFI but were only staying 1 night so not a problem but we informed staff as we checked out and they were going to look into that/reset router so probably fine.

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.

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.

Made us feel well welcome but from there being no hot water to have a shower with upon arrival after a 6 hour journey, to not even being able to use the bath/ shower due to the fitting fixtures being broken or missing. Breakfast was Great i will give them that. Was rather distressful overall was not the greatest experience and the place could do with a clean up externally as is very run down. The guy on site was clearly not supported by management due to lack of staff which is not his thought. I Blame the management for not supporting him and not maintaining their property and surrounding ground. DO NOT EXPECT ONE GUY TO RUN YOUR BUSINESS WITHOUT SUPPORT!!

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.

Very comfortable room with character. Staff were young, but very competent. My evening meal was excellent, as was the breakfast. Boiler issue meant no hot water for a morning shower. Staff apologetic & my room rate was sufficiently compensated. (Same staff member as previous evening). I'd stay again for sure.

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 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.

Nice quaint pub/hotel in very small pretty village. We stayed in a family room which was spacious and we parked in the hotel car park but it would have been easy to park nearby otherwise. We didn't book a table on arrival so couldn't eat at the pub that evening, managed to get a reservation in the neighbourhood pub. Enjoyed breakfast, nicely decorated dining area. Staff were helpful and friendly. Couldn't access WIFI but were only staying 1 night so not a problem but we informed staff as we checked out and they were going to look into that/reset router so probably fine.

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.

A last minute overnight stay. Had a fantastic room, so big, staff incredibly friendly and helpful. Great value. Fabulous breakfast. Quiet, family games to play, plenty of sockets for charging. Lovely, reasonable meal in the restaurant. Would recommend

The bar area was stylish and welcoming with a warming fire. The staff were friendly and accommodating which gave a relaxed atmosphere. Food was great (1 Sunday roast and 2 steaks) and reasonably priced. We had a 1 night stay in a courtyard room which was a good size and perfect as we had a dog with us. A decent breakfast set us up for the next day. Highly recommend.

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 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.

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 😊
