We found 3 or 4 of these large anemones at Ardtoe, Acharacle, Ardnamurchan, Scotland. The larger one was about 3cm across. The sides were red with gravel/shell-bits attached to the side. They closed up for at least two days after being fed. Both in a rock pool, but towards low water. Other beadlets etc shown for size comparison.

I looked online - are they Sagartia troglodytes?
