The Anchorage is a family run guesthouse offering a comfortable and relaxing stay. Situated just a 'stone's throw' from both the golden sands of Weymouth beach and the picturesque 17th century harbour. Perfectly located by the Pavilion Theatre. Just a few minutes walk will see you in the town centre with its many pubs, restaurants, major shopping outlets and other attractions.
The Anchorage now has new owners, Jamie and Sarah, who look forward to welcoming you. From music festivals to sporting events and food festivals Weymouth is alive with events throughout the year. A framed photograph of the area makes a great souvenir or why not have a family portrait taken during your stay.

Services
There is 24 hour paid street parking directly opposite and surrounding The Anchorage. We have a limited amount of parking permits, which offer free parking, available to guests on a first come first served basis. We provide concessionary parking tickets to guests, for a small charge, which are up to 25% cheaper than council parking tariffs.
We are proud to display on our walls photographs by the very talented William Hollyoak a local photographer covering Dorset and surrounding areas. His framed works can be purchased and many of our guests have been delighted to return home with one of his delightful framed memories. Wiliam is also available for photographic assignments and can be contacted to make a booking using his contact details below.
We aim to cater for the needs of all visitors to our 8 bedroom guest house by providing a friendly and welcoming service. The Anchorage was built in the era of King George 3rd, we aim to meet the needs of all our guests, however, there are some period features which might make access difficult for people with limited mobility.
In June, we had a group of fishermen from Medway, Kent; as guests. Although they have been coming to Weymouth for a number of years, and have stayed at The Anchorage before, it was our first time of meeting them. They brought lovely sunshine with them - thank you! After an early breakfast, they went off and enjoyed some great fishing with skipper Adrian on 'Al's Spirit'; bringing us back some mackerel.

Lovely stay at The Anchorage this weekend. We booked via Booking.com so automatically allocated the top room, which was a bit of a trek, it was a really hot weekend and the room was very hot, but on the flip side we had a lovely view of the harbour. Would definitely stay again but would book directly with the B&B to get a lower level room. It was very clean and the owners were lovely and accommodating. The breakfast was superb too! Thank you 😊
