To everyone who comes to Williamstown for a break, Anchors Down is the place to come to for accommodation. It is in Nelson place . Accommodations are a one bedroom apartment. Cooking, tea and coffee facilities, microwave, washing machine and dryer and of course TV. Depending on how fast you walk (i am in my 60s and have a bung knee) I can slow walk to the railway station at end of Ann Street (15 -20 min away), walk to restaurants and pubs 5-10 min. As for the spectacular view of Port Phillip Bay, the piers, boats, a ferry to Melbourne and a great view of the city. It is safe, I am on my own when I visit, it is diagonally across from the police station (5min walk away) , Royal Victorian Yacht Club, Seaworks Museum. It would take a good 45 minutes to walk to the main shopping area in Douglas Parade to Coles, Post office and many other shops and library in Ferguson Street. There is also a bus stop in Ann Street (471,472) Hosts Deb and Ralph are excellent. Place is always spotless and very comfortable. I have stayed there 5 times now, and I will continue to keep coming back.
