“The Blue Anchor Feering presents itself as a welcoming village pub with comfortably appointed rooms, many of which benefit from a quieter position at the rear. Diners will find a well-regarded restaurant on-site, serving up food that's generally praised, although the portioning of gravy on roasts might be a point of consideration for some. Its secure after-hours access and ample parking contribute to a straightforward and agreeable stay, particularly for those with local connections.”
