I booked this room to attend my friend’s wedding in Lyme Regis. The location was amazing but the downside was there was no parking and I had to pay for 24 hour parking in a nearby car park. The bed was very comfortable and it was great to have bath sheet towels rather than just bath towels. The shower was an over the bath shower which although adequate would be better if it was a proper shower.

Nice location

Was not really for me, the locations is lovely and the central car park not too far away. However, it was not made clear was that the bathroom while only for my use, was actually located across a shared landing. I prefer an ensuite.

5 stars at the anchor

We really enjoyed our stay at the anchor, the pubs location is a stones throw from the bay and seemed to be at the heart of the village, our room was really good, big comfortable bed and a fantastic sea view, big shout out the the wonderful staff who all made us feel welcome andooked after us so well, food was exceptional in particular the breakfast that was amazing

Unsafe hot water supply

Our Room 3 on the first floor was comfortable and clean with an impressive view to the beach and surrounding hills. The stairs were a challenge being steep and with hard edged treads with no rails on the top flight partly because of a door at the top of the stair opening out onto the stair. On our second night my wife was frightened and her scalp burned by the shower water suddenly going from warm to boiling hot. The shower cubicle was filled with steam making it difficult for my wife to find and turn of the water supply tap. The hotel’s response to this was offhand trying to stress it was an isolated incident and seemingly uninterested in the effect on my wife. She will be making a formal complaint to the owners Green King.

A very quaint Hotel with quirky features. Noisy floor boards so you could hear people moving around. Food was good but little more expensive than normal Green King prices. Recently stayed in a Wetherspoons Hotel as well, who provided a lot more tea/coffee/hot chocolate etc in the room. Would be an idea to increase at the Anchor. Great location with some on site parking but we couldn't use it so park on the road. Would recommend.

Beautiful Beer

Quick easy reception. Friendly welcome. Clean room with awesome sea view. Great food. Comfortable bed. Little tired room but I think it suits Seaton and Beer being a little quaint and British! Love it.
