The Anchor also offers two delightful B&B rooms each boasting comfortable beds, ensuite bathrooms (with power shower) 32" LCD TV with Freeview and Free Wifi. Please see accommodation page for booking info.

The pub has two bars: our front bar is the hub of the local Hartfield community where you can find our friendly locals, young and old enjoying a pint and discussing tales of old and new.

Our back bar provides a more intimate setting with inglenook fireplace and a small library area; very cosy in the winter months. Adjoining the bar is a spacious dining area that can cater for up to 40 people. This facility can also be booked for private events. Please contact us for more info.

As well as great food and accommodation, The Anchor also provides regular entertainment nights. Recent events have included Live Bands, Themed Food Evenings, Golfing Days, Race Nights, Quiz's and much more.
