  We stayed at Beren for a long weekend in November 2015 and fell in love with it - we already have a return visit planned later this year! The house is warm and welcoming with a lovely kitchen/diner and 3 good bedrooms. All the furnishings and equipment were to a very high standard and it was spotlessly clean when we arrived - the kids immediately logged on to the Wifi internet while we relaxed in the hot tub! We were also delighted to find that the house not only welcomed dogs and had a fully enclosed private garden, but the owners had also provided thoughtful 'doggy' extras such as rugs and food bowls. The cottage is located right in the centre of Croyde village and has the benefit of off-road parking (not often the case with village period properties as we've found in the past). It is also a stone's throw from a good local pub serving excellent food. A short, scenic walk takes you to Croyde Bay where dogs are allowed on the beach during the off-peak season. We particularly recommend the cliff top walk to Woolacombe with sweeping sea views across Croyde Bay.

  Lovely cottage but don’t be fooled by the images it is very small and oversized furniture adds to this. Upstairs is very cramped but has comfortable furniture and lovely bedding. The bathroom needs to be refitted its dated and mouldy in places. Kitchen is well stocked and outhouse has drying area which is useful. The location is perfect and nice to have access to body boards and chairs if you haven’t brought them along. The biggest nightmare is the parking, you have to drive on onto shared parking area as it’s a one way narrow street and no where to turn. It’s a shared drive anyway and the property to the right or the drive insist you don’t park too close due to access to their property which is ridiculous given how tight it is. We ended up paying for parking in the car park as it was a nightmare and took 15 mins to be able to reverse off. Overall maybe if a couple, small car it’s lovely but not recommended for family.

  Absolutely fabulous holiday cottage. Large, with plenty of space for the up to 6 guests it can accommodate. VERY clean and VERY comfortable. Great enclosed garden for dogs, although if you have a small dog just keep an eye on them when they go between the house and garden. Even with wire strung under the 5 bar gate they could still slip through. But honestly...that is the ONLY slightly negative thing I can find to say about The Anchorage. They take their Covid responsibilities seriously and we did not feel at all compromised. Really quiet area but only 1/4-1/2 a mile from Putsborough beach either over fields or by car and which is dog friendly and like the property, very clean and has excellent toilet and lovely cafe facilities. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and can not wait to revisit The Anchorage in September, fingers crossed with family this time! Thank you Rob for a great cottage and holiday.

  The cottage is a lovely place with so many little details the owner made to make you feel welcome. The fire place was fantastic (middle of the winter always a lovely cosy feature), the milk in the fridge upon arrival as well as tea, sugar and biscuits were really a warm welcome. The Xmas decoration was fantastic, it made us feel really like home to home ! Thank you for installing the dryer, it was a life saver, as the walks got really muddy and wet, but all the worthwhile! Overall the property was really well kept, very nice prepared and instructions what to do and where to go were really useful. Thank you for making our Christmas time special.

  Lovely property, very spacious, perfectly equipped with just the right amount of crockery and kitchen utensils for example. Very useful outhouse for storing muddy boots without entering the house (great for our labrador!) and super practical entrance/kitchen/luandry set-up. Great touches like welcoming hot-cross buns with clotted cream and a polite amount of perishables made available to tenants such as loo paper, dishwasher tabs, fire-lighters etc. The hot water shower outside also massively appreciated after April surfing at Putsborough Sands! Rob Tucker, the owner was also very friendly and helpful without being "ever-present".
