There for a one-night stay - in a bright, spotless en-suite bedroom on the top floor,superbly modernised and with nothing lacking. This is a quite excellent B&B in a beautifully-kept historic town house, right in the heart of Berwick. Sandra and Ian - local people with a deep knowledge of local history (with fascinating pictures to show for it in... More

A really great B&B experience. Stopped overnight here on a cycling tour. Beautiful building, great room, ideal location, and great breakfast. Couldn't have asked for more. Ian and Sandra were perfect hosts. Thoroughly recommended.

Here for the second time, having stayed in several Berwick B&Bs, but this is the best! Beautiful staircase and rooms, every detail perfect, with great hosts and of course a high quality breakfast and coffee.

Comfortable double room, nice bedding and very clean. Lovely breakfast and good selection on offer. Sandra and Ian adore their dogs and could I bet talk about four-legged woofs for hours. Being true locals, they know all there is to know about Berwick.

Spent Easter weekend in the lovely town of Berwick and had no hesitation in returning to The Anchorage, having enjoyed previous stays there so much. The house is a beautiful old building which has been lovingly restored by the owners and is an ideal B&B - spacious rooms full of natural light and an absolutely magnificent staircase which takes you...

My husband and I have just returned from an all-to-brief stay at The Anchorage. Sandra and Ian are perfect hosts, and their guest house is simply wonderful. Our room (No.1 on top floor) was beautiful, and we had a great night's sleep on a very comfortable bed, followed by a hearty breakfast. They are a lovely couple, and very knowledgeable... More

Having stayed for a week at short notice and arriving later than expected it was nice to be met at the door by the host Sandra who spent time explaining things and helping me settle in. Ian was very flexible and the breakfasts where great I was so impressed I returned on my next stay and if given the choice... More

What a treat to find poached haddock for breakfast! A very nicely presented and run b&b. The only downside to be aware of is there are quite a lot of stairs up to the rooms, but then it's a beautiful staircase. Might also be a problem if you were less keen on dogs. Quite an overwhelming doggy smell, even in... More

I am glad you enjoyed your stay with us and that you gave us a 5 star rating . I am puzzled by you saying that house and your room smelt doggy , both dogs are not allowed near the guest rooms so I don't know how your room or any of the house smelt doggy. We try our best... More

I decided to take a break from London mid-September to visit the historical town of Berwick-Upon-Tweed. Sandra and Ian welcomed me warmly to the Anchorage and settled me into a serene single room at the top of their beautiful house. Sandra ensured that my room was warm and had specifically turned on the radiator as the weather had just started... More

We stayed for one night at the Anchorage and this turned out to be a fabulous choice. The house is beautiful and has been really nicely restored. It has real character. Our room was of a good size, was spotlessly clean and was furnished to a really high standard. Sandra gave us a warm welcome on arrival and parking was... More
