August stay at Anchor's Rest,04 September 2006
From the moment we arrived at Anchor's Rest; it felt like home ... away from home. Our hosts (Peter & Cilla) made us feel very comfortable. The room we occupied was decorated well and is maintained with great care! The daily breakfasts we enjoyed were absolutely mouth-watering ~ what a treat!! We truly enjoyed our stay at Anchor's Rest and would love to re-visit it sometime soon!!
