Anchor Inn
Hillfarrance, Taunton, Taunton, TA4 1AW, United Kingdom – Great location - show map
The Anchor Inn provides ensuite accommodation 7.5 km from Taunton and 1km from Oake. The property is less than 10 minutes from the motorway and features a bar, as well as an award-winning restaurant serving British cuisine. The Anchor is situated on the edge of Exmoor national park and the Quantocks, famous for their wild Exmoor ponies are within a 10 minute drive. The property offers fabulous local walks on your doorstep, a beautiful country situation and a children's playground. The Anchor is a fabulous base for exploring Somerset then returning for a fabulous meal and welcome. Guest rooms in the inn are equipped with a 39" TV, a kettle and mini fridge. Rooms include a private bathroom with free toiletries, while all rooms have outdoor, covered seating. Free WIFI is offered in the public areas of the Inn, but service is poor within the rooms themselves. We would not recommend attempting to work via the WIFI from our rooms for example. An in-room continental breakfast is available every morning at the property on request. A Full English breakfast is available within 1 mile at the local golf course from 8am. The Inn offers a reduced room rate on Monday and Tuesday evenings due to the reception, bar and restaurant being closed. The Inn is fully open from Wednesday - Sunday. Exeter is 40 km from the accommodation, while Weston-super-Mare is 40 km away. The nearest airport is Exeter International Airport, 35 km from the property.
Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 8.6 for a two-person trip.
