Cleanlieness and friendly staff

nothing

A friendly clean pub/hotel. Spotless room and hair staightners included. fresh milk on request, nothing to much trouble. Staff were always smiling. carnt wait to go back even if I have to wait a year.

nothing, well isuppose having to leave.

Lovely people, excellent food and spotlessly clean. The room was nice and spacious overlooking the countryside. Nice quiet location but close enough to all the amenities Will definitely go back

Nothing

Breakfast Friendly and efficient staff The huge bed The view from bedroom window

Beer was a bit expensive, about £1.00 more than I normally pay for the same brand. Overall the room probably worth £75, rather than £85 a night B&B. However, it is fine for a one night stay

staff very hospitable room very comfortable food excellent

The Inn was a little off the beatenntrack but was very cosy and comfortable. Plenty of room. Excellent food.

there was nothing we did not like about the hotel.

Food, beer, staff

Some building maintenance needed

Quiet location in small village. Car parking no problem Excellent breakfast in the price. Very good evening meal.

Bedroom en-suite had ridiculously small basin with no plug, making it very difficult to have wet shave. Wi-fi signal was very weak in bedroom. Restaurant menu was very eclectic and first thought was 'this is a mix, can they do all this to a high standard?' Good news was, they could, so it was just an image-thing.

Staff friendly, cooperative and helpful. Bedroom & ensuite well appointed. Real ales available in bar along with an extensive menu.

Close to a busy road hence rooms were quite noisy. Tendancy for staff to congregate on the customer side of the bar which was somewhat daunting on arrival.

The meal at the Anchor Inn is excellent. Breakfast Fab. Peace and quite, never heard a peep considering we were above a busy public bar.

Sorry the bed was really uncomfortable, but do not let it put you off this could have just been personal preference. Myself and my husband are both fussy with our bed.

The room

The food

We were greeted by friendly helpful staff, our room was warm comfortable and clean. The information book was excellent. Service was excellent. Our meal was well presented and very tasty. Good choice of wines to accompany all meals. Breakfast was very tasty and an excellent selection. Will Definitely go again and recommend to others :-)

Quiet surroundings, clean and well staffed. Food was delicious and reasonably priced. Room was an excellent size. Shower was lovely, plenty of hot water and good pressure. Liked the small touches like bath robes available to use in the room and hair straighteners as well as a hairdryer.

The bed was huge but the mattress was "very firm" and I prefer a softer mattress. There was a slight smell of what I think was paint which lingered throughout the upstairs of the building. The room is more than big enough to have some chairs to sit on rather than having to sit on the bed. The television is small, high on the wall and a recipe for a neck strain. My pet hate is travel kettles and unfortunatly my room had one.

This place is a little gem!! Beautiful interior,lovely food and wonderful staff..the accommodation was beyond excellent,and i'm always amazed at the friendliness of the local people..i would highly recommend the Anchor to everyone

This is a lovely guest house. The rooms are spacious and the one we had "Castles" had great views. Very quiet. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The pub has a good restaurant and bar area. You need a car and if you do have one then there's lots to do from Newcaslte, The Metro Centre, Durham and Northumberland to local walks and cycling (if you're good on hills!)

Very well equipped room, spacious with excellent bathroom. Good location, with (on a good day) excellent views in several directions. Pleasant and friendly staff.

Staff were all friendly and helpful. Good food, clean dnd comfortable. Would use the anchor again.

Nothing negative to say.

Lovely staff, excellent food and very comfortable accommodation!

The room was beautifully appointed and really comfortable. The welcome was friendly and personal. the surrounding countryside was very beautiful even during one of thee wettest weeks of the year.The beer was well kept and the breakfast was excellent. The food was good.
