We recently spent my 50th birthday there and believe it must be the best B&B in Cornwall!
The rooms are immaculate and beautifully furnished, oozing with quality and good taste. Breakfast was delicious and a very happy friendly affair. We sat on the most incredible patio sipping champagne with an awesome sea view stretching over 40 miles. There are car parking spaces too (do not stay anywhere without a car park in Mevagissey)!

Without question the best place I have ever visited.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/20140 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18359 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18359 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18197 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18197 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16839
Anchorage House is in St Austell, Cornwall. The standard of service, beautiful rooms and location blew us away.

I'd highly recommend English Retreats for quality accommodation and Anchorage House is superb.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16839 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13811 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13811 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11461
They gave us wetsuits and life jackets to wear and then we walked through the village down to the beach where our kayaks were waiting for us.

We then kayaked along the coast for about half an hour. Then the instructors stopped us and said we could jump out and swim to the rocks. You could then climb up the rocks and jump off! My dad did it and said it was scary. I jumped in and swam around the boat. It was a bit scary as we saw a jellyfish near us and we were in deep water.

After this we kayaked onto a small beach where the instructors gave us snorkelling equipment and we swam out along the rocks until the water was about 10ft deep. I saw a huge dogfish and lots of other fish swimming around the rocks. It was amazing. We then kayaked on a bit further along the coast and landed on another beach for lunch.

The instructors were really good, they showed where to find crabs
and told us about the creatures on the beach.

After than we kayaked back to Porthpean, but my mum and sister got tired out and one of the instructors towed them back for some of the way. It was a brilliant day where I did things I had never done before.

(PS my mum said it was good value as it cost £19.00 for each of us)
