    The rooms were warm, comfortable and as good as being at home. Mike and Carol also added that extra element to make our visit extra special.

    Mike and Carol were so very welcoming and provided everything needed for a great break. Great hosts, thank you for letting us stay at the Anchorage.

    Having to leave for home! Seriously, I couldn't fault it. Even the advice we got for eating out and finding our way around was great.

    Hosts were exceptionally welcoming. Property was beautifully maintained inside and out. Parking was easy. Basic essentials supplied on arrival. Milk, coffee, tea, cleaning equipment, laundry, smart TV in lounge and bedroom, hair dryer.... Oh and chocolates with a bottle of prosecco!

    The only suggestion we have is that the lighting on the stairs was a bit dim and could probably do with being a bit brighter, but that's a minor point.

    We had a very enjoyable stay, and were made exceptionally welcome. Mike was a very thoughtful host.

    When we stay again we will book an apartment on a lower level. Lots of stairs, something to consider if you have health problems, though Mike did help us with the bags.

    A stones throw from the beautiful quiet little Bull Bay. Lovely apartment, very comfortable stay. Mike was a great host, couldn't do enough for us, we will definitely be back!

    Nothing! My room was cleaned every day, the chocs etc were an uplifting bonus and they really made me feel at home.

    It was self-service but milk chocolates and a bottle of wine came as a bonus.

    Always a Great Stay

    On this occasion I was just a little let down by construction workers from the nearby solar power site. They tended to congregate on the fire escape outside my windows, so little privacy, meaning I couldn't have the bathroom window open or blind up as they can see directly in, they were outside very early in the morning smoking and talking before going to work, and then in the evening, until dark and late much the same. A 'No Smoking' establishment, but this doesn't apply to the fire escape sadly allowing cigarette smoke to waft in through the windows.

    The Anchorage is a bit of a regular stay for me... ideally situated for everything I need to do on the island. The room is ideal with a decent en suite and lovely views of the hillside with sheep grazing to the rear. Everything you need in the kitchenette and Mike's always welcome bottle of wine and box of chocolates in your room on arrival.

    A minor gripe would be that the kitchen was not very well equipped (not many pots and pans), this was not a big problem for us though and I am sure if we had asked we would have been given any extras that we needed from the lovely hosts.

    Our stay at The Anchorage was lovely. Mike was very welcoming and friendly. We were welcomed with chocolates and wine which was a lovely touch. The apartment was clean, warm and comfortable with easy access to the beautiful coastline that we love to walk. WiFi was great, if you're in to that sort of thing! Nice big TV to watch movies on at night.
