- [ ] Excellent, dog Friendly pub âThe plume of feathersâ in Mitchell servicing good beverages and excellent food. - [ ] A secure rear garden would be the icing on the cake at this property. - [ ] appreciate this is probably a holiday cottage company thing rather than property owner. I feel itâs a little cheeky to ask guest to âwhere appropriateâ use the dishwasher on your last night and pack everything from the dishwasher away. All other holiday rentals ask you to put the dishwasher on when you leave as they appreciate guests are doing other things in the morning when trying to exit the property at the early departure time. * couldnât find welcome pack but this may not be applicable due to only staying for 2 nights? * Couldnât find an information pack about heating, cooker, dishwasher and other household bits and pieces in the property or on the app? Again maybe the way Sykes cottages operate?

It was spotlessly clean, well equipped and the beds were very comfortable. The location in beautiful, peaceful countryside with the A30 only a few minutes drive away was ideal. Most of the places we wanted to visit took no more than one hour to reach by car so it provided a perfect base for exploring all of Cornwall.

Could not fault the house at all; it was a great base for our stay. Not a criticism of the owners as it was my misunderstanding but was concerned as the garden wasnât enclosed, worried the puppy would encroach on the main house !
