Reviews
A tremendous property in a great location. The Anchorage is a very well presented home. It's extremely well equipped and although we were a party of 4 adults and one pet it offers more than enough space to accommodate 8 people very comfortably. The location of the Anchorage makes it easy to explore the surrounding beaches, walks and small towns and is in easy reach of a major supermarket so there's no need to pack up provisions and plan meals for your full stay. The sea view is spectacular from the living room, kitchen and 3 of the bedrooms. A relaxing week was had by all and we very much look forward to a return visit.
