Hope & Anchor

A lovely pub/hotel in a lovely village! The room was great, comfortable and spacious. The meal in the restaurant was excellent as was the breakfast. All the staff we met were so friendly with a ready smile. Hope itself is a brilliant find which we would certainly return to - just don’t tell too many people about it as it is very special.

Lovely place to stay . View from the very comfortable room was just perfect . Going to sleep at night in a very comfortable bed and listening to the waves was lovely . All staff were very friendly and helpful , the meals we had were also excellent . We intend to return

Great stay at the Hope & Anchor which must be one of the nicest pubs in Devon. We enjoyed our comfortable room with sea views & it was great to have the SW Coast path just a few yards away. Breakfast was very good, especially the tasty bacon & piping hot hash browns. Breakfast service from Hamish was outstanding - thankyou! Hope to revisit soon!

We booked a two night break early in January after receiving an emailed offer. Met on reception by Hamish, who showed us around the property and to our room. He explained about the hotel and how we could get around as well as where we could walk. Had great meals on both nights in the restaurant which was surprisingly busy for a Monday and Tuesday evening in January. Breakfast on both mornings was both plentiful and delicious - again Hamish was there to provide for every need including entertainment and advice. Loved the wood burning fire and the box of games as you come through the front door - had great fun with both. Rooms were very comfortable but would have liked an Ava Innes duvet but they obviously haven't made their way that far south. The location is idyllic with a sublime view of a cove and the bay beyond. Beware the narrow roads to get in and out of Hope Cove - drive slowly and carefully. For walking swimming, water sports and just relaxing, it perfect

Staying at the Hope and Anchor was such a lovely experience. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was of the highest standards of cleanliness and comfort. The food was reasonably priced and very tasty. With a wonderful selection of hot and cold options for breakfast. We will definitely be visiting again. Thank you so much!

We stayed 2 nights in a deluxe coastal double room. It was a good size, and comfortable, but a little dimly lit (yellow bulbs) with only a small pair of windows, and dark-ish painted walls and ceiling. The room also had flaking paint and marks on the walls in places. The large bathroom seemed more modern, possibly more recently re-vamped. The (expected) sea view from our room (room 15) was 50% obscured by the thatched roof of the building in front of the pub, alas. The floorboards in the room above us seemed to be really creaky and noisy, very loud (and the occupants seemed to be moving around from early to very late). There was also quite a lot of noise from outside, from people sitting at the outside tables in front of the pub and vehicles delivering to the pub, or to adjacent businesses. The public car park adjacent to the pub costs £6.25 per 24 hours via Ringo. No car parking is available at the pub. Breakfast was very good. We didn't have dinner at the pub, so can't comment about this. It seemed very busy both nights, however. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Overall, quite reasonable value for money.
