Area wasn't bad property was lovely, nice cosy vibe and great surrounding area

Fabulous apartment. Warm welcome. Lots of suggestions for dining and days out. Great short stay Lovely cake too !!

Wonderful break again at the Anchorage. Lovely apartment in great location. Owners very helpful and the welcoming finishing touches were much appreciated. Would definitely recommend and hope to be back soon.

A clean and well presented apartment in a great location, perfect for the beach and only a short walk to Bournemouth and Westbourne village. The building doesn’t inspire but when you enter the apartment it’s like an oasis out of an interior magazine; it didn’t disappoint. The lemon drizzle cake on arrival was a lovely touch from the owners and was delicious. We’d recommend this property but in doing so we hope it’s available next time we want to stay!

We had a fab 4 night stay in this lovely apartment. The apartment itself is lovely, spacious and comfortable, and quiet. Comes with allocated off road parking, which was needed over the bank holiday, as the weather was fab and it was VERY busy! Just a 5 minute amble to the beach, and the chine is directly behind the apartment. Highly recommend.

Very Pleased

A very enjoyable short stay in a lovely apartment. Lemon drizzle cake was a lovely welcome. The apartment is in such a nice location backing onto Alum Chine, a short walk from the beach and easy walk to the centre of Bournemouth, and also the very nice and convenient Westbourne shops.

A light and airy apartment, in a beautiful location, that suited us well. A great place to hang out with our daughter and son-in-law and their little 2.5 year old daughter. There was even a little bed made ready for her, with which she was 'well pleased' :) The beach toys and towels came in very handy too. A short walk to the beach front, plus a fabulous children's play area - everything we needed for her introduction to a sandy beach. Would definitely recommend The Anchorage! Thanks to Helen and Martin for a lovely stay - you answered our questions promptly and helped make our stay very pleasant.

Very enjoyable short break with daughter and grandchildren

I will be honest – our initial impressions were not great – the exterior of the building belies the interior and my heart sank. Thankfully the moment the door opened my worries were put to rest. It really is a lovely apartment with a fabulously comfortable living / kitchen / dining area with beautiful views over the trees at the back. The bedrooms are fine – front facing so you need the blinds down. The bathroom is small but newly decorated and very clean. The location – five minutes walk from Alum Chine beach and Vesuvio restaurant - makes it a very good choice for a holiday apartment. The owners are delightful and quick to help us get the heating on. If I were to be critical the linens, towels and outside furniture could use a refresh. But at the price point exceptional value.

Lovely apartment very spacious ,clean and homely arrived to some flowers and lemon drizzle cake such a lovely touch after a long journey, just a 5 minute walk to the beautiful sandy beach plenty of stop off points a long the way into Bournemouth. Would highly recommend this apartment and would definitely return. Great location.

Beautiful, clean, tranquil, inviting. Superb hosts. Fabulous lemon drizzle cake greeted us on arrival, lovely surprise.

Wonderful place to stay, would stay again without hesitation. Thanks for the lovely cake!

We have just come back from a lovely stay at the Anchorage. The accommodation was fantastic - clean and very comfortable with welcoming touches. Location was excellent. We will definitely be recommending to family and friends. Thank you Helen and Martin.

My first impressions on walking in were ‘wow I want to live here’! Such a beautiful, light, airy apartment with a big open plan living area and big squashy sofas. I stayed with my 3 children who also loved it! The walk to the beach is 5 minutes and to the pier is 15 but there’s a little road train you can hop on to speed it up! The beach is quiter than the town centre and there is an adventure play ground for the kids. I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a relaxing beach side stay.

This was our fifth stay at the Anchorage (which in itself probably says it all!) so there is probably very little I can add to the five reviews already done however! the Anchorage is in a PERFECT location, is a beautiful apartment and Helen and Martin are wonderful hosts (owners).
