"This pub is a gem. Such a cosy atmosphere with a welcoming, homely feel. Lovely wood burner to add to the cosy feel, and the food was gorgeous" Nikki Pickard, Google 5 star review December 2023

At the rear of the pub is a free car park and a south-facing Sun Terrace with lovely rural views. Our restaurant offers fine food in a comfortable, congenial atmosphere, with a wide choice of vegetarian and vegan options always available. The Anchor provides both free WiFi and free charging for your mobile devices, and a free pool table.

The Anchor Inn, late 19th Century.
The photograph clearly shows how much smaller The Anchor was at the time, occupying what had been just one house. The two cottages to the left became part of the pub and are now the toilets, the reception and The Crow's Nest. The original Tudor chimney can also be seen, with the pub sign attached to it. The Anchor Inn is within the conservation area in Hartland, so when the chimney was rebuilt in 2021, all the original stone was reused.
Thanks to Stephen Hobbs for supplying the photograph.
