I've anchored 4 times about 3/4 mile east of the mouth of Lynmouth, below the North Devon Coastal Path. The second time, a non forecast 25-30kt northeasterly came in overnight and the anchor dragged, very scary. The forecast had been a sheltered south east gentle wind.
A couple of weeks ago, I anchored again in calm conditions but the wind again picked up but no anchor drag. But had a couple of hours with eyes glued to the plotter for peace of mind before it all calmed down!
The following night I anchored at Blue Anchor Bay where the holding has always been excellent.
