A new chapter begins.
We’re proud to unveil our latest project: - a thoughtfully reimagined destination that blends the charm of the past with the warmth of the present.
Closed for over 16 years, The Anchor has now been lovingly brought back to life. It has been transformed it into a bright, welcoming space that remains deeply rooted in its history while feeling unmistakably contemporary.
Designed to be family-friendly, the space offers light-filled interiors that still feel cosy and intimate. You’ll find subtle nods to Art Deco - the era of glamorous boat and train travel - adding a layer of timeless elegance without overshadowing the heritage of the site.
The Anchor is now home to a beautifully restored pub, an inviting courtyard, a generous beer garden, a café concept called Spouges, an adventure playground and The Anchor Express. Visitors can also stay over in the guest house featuring four individually designed but cohesive bedrooms, blending countryside style with a boutique, lived-in comfort.
Community is at the heart of The Anchor, a warm and welcoming destination to gather with friends and family. It is a place to slow down and connect.
More than just a renovation, this project is a resurrection. We’ll be sharing some incredible before-and-after moments soon. For now, if you’re in Gunthorpe, be sure to visit this renewed space where history, hospitality, and design come together.
Huge thanks to everyone involved in turning this project around in 6 months!
