Take time to unwind at The Anchor. Our beautiful beach house offers breathtaking views over the Banffshire Coast, stunning at any time of the year. There is something for all of our guests to enjoy in the local area. The house is peaceful and well equipped to a high standard. Patio doors open out to a private outdoor space which is perfect for outside dining, relaxing or watching over children whilst they play. Open the gate and step down past the beautiful landscaped garden to the beach area.
We will be available for interaction of questions during your stay.
Swordanes is a row of beautiful beach houses in the Inverboyndie area. They overlook the beautiful sea view from an elevated position with direct access to the play park and beach from a patio garden. A private parking space is directly located at the main entrance and this is on the same level as the main door, creating a step free entrance and an easy unloading of the car after a busy day of travel or exploring the local area. The bus stop is extremely close to the house and regular buses travel to Banff, Aberdeen and Elgin. Local taxi services are also available.
