Michelle “I should have read the feedback!”
The driveway to the property needs trimming as it scratches the car being so narrow. If you like living with spiders you will love it here. The house is clean, tidy and well kept. A hoover and dust of spider webs would be appreciated for us that don’t like to share accommodation with the long legged critters. Beautiful cottage in idyllic location, close to Cornwall’s finest

Colin “Very unhappy.”
We left a carrier bag of clothing worth over £100 in the bedroom. On contacting Sykes and getting phonecall back we were told that the bag had been put in the bin and disposed of, presumably by the cleaners. Can they not distinguish between clothes and rubbish? Our fault for forgetting it but this is very poor customer care.

Tina “The access to the cottage was horrable.”
Every time we had take this way we fear to damage our car. Normally this is unacceptable. the cottage was cozy and fully equipped.

Derek “I like this property but the track to access it has deteriorated since our last visit.”
For this reason I will not be using this accommodation again.

Julie “This was our second stay.”
The cottage is very warm and comfortable. It has plenty of character with everything you need for a comfortable stay. There are shops a few minutes drive away for milk and coffee, tea, general groceries. There is also a fab bakery which is open out of season. The area is very peaceful. The beaches and coastal walks are stunning. We would book again.
- Julie, February 2025Thank you for your lovely feedback! We're so glad to hear you enjoyed your second stay and found the cottage comfortable and well-equipped. It’s great that you appreciated the peaceful area and nearby amenities. We look forward to welcoming you again in the future! John Bray Cornish Holidays Property Owner

Mark “I have stayed Dingle cottage twice previously and have reported the fact that when it rains water drips through the ground floor shower room light fitting!”
It is still not being addressed and also the neighbour with black dog continuously has a poo in the front and even back garden, which is very unpleasant, I love the cottage as I have now stayed here three times and I know you are on the market for sale but this does not excuse the reason for maintaining the property which you are earning rental income from. I have emailed both Sykes and yourself directly with no response.! Which in itself is unacceptable from somebody paying to stay in your cottage! being an estate agent myself I do hope your current agent let prospective purchases know that your roof leaks! I wish you all the best but won’t be staying here again, as it is clear that neither you or Sykes are interested!
- Mark, October 2024Thank you for taking the time to feedback on your stay. We're very sorry that you had to experience these issues during your visit. We are afraid that we did not receive your emails but in response to your online web message to the owners we then sent you one back to discuss but we never heard back from you. We will be investigating the issue with the leak as a matter of urgency and the owner will speak to the neighbour regarding their dog. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner.

Catriona “A very generously sized holiday cottage with more than adequate living space for 4 people (We stayed as a couple) so felt very spoilt.”
All the creature comforts you could possibly want even for an extended stay and the house was presented beautifully and extremely clean. Dingles is conveniently located near a number of attractions with Fish n Chips in Port Isaac on a sunny lunchtime being the highlight of our stay! Shopping is a breeze with Wadebridge being just 5 miles away with all the large name supermarkets etc. Would highly recommend this property.
- Catriona, October 2024Thank you so much for your kind words. It's great to hear that you had such a fabulous stay and had the perfect base to explore the local area from. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

Zoe “Lovely cottage and all important things were clean I.”
E. bed linen, kitchen, bathrooms but quite a few cobwebs waving to welcome us! There was a leak in downstairs shower room and John Bray reacted within couple of hours had 2 people round - I was impressed with the efficient, polite and acceptable resolution. Neither front or back gardens are dog proof and neighbours dog tends to poo in the front garden. We would revisit as cottage, area etc are lovely
- Zoe, August 2024Thank you so much for your comments. We love hearing just how much you enjoyed your stay! Hopefully we can welcome you back again in the future. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

Brian “"A charming cottage in a picturesque area.”
However, upon arrival, we were unpleasantly greeted by dog waste on the front lawn. Once inside, we found all the rooms to be extremely dirty, with old food still on the floor, an abundance of dust, cobwebs throughout the house, and a strong odour of stale urine in all the bathrooms. It took us a good couple of hours to clean the cottage ourselves! After a few days, our youngest child started to cough and complain of a tight chest, likely due to the dampness in the cottage. We had to turn on the underfloor heating to try to dry out the cottage, which made it extremely uncomfortable on hot days. Although there were some positive aspects (Good utilities, comfortable sofa, and beds and a nice garden at the back of the cottage) the negatives, unfortunately, overshadowed them. Sykes/Bray should consider hiring a proper cleaning contractor, as this situation greatly diminished our holiday experience."
- Brian, August 2024Thank you for the feedback you have shared. We are extremely sorry to hear that the standard of cleanliness was not good at the cottage. John Bray are here to resolve any problems like this as soon as we can for guests, and our email following a first night stay does encourage guests to get in touch with us if they encounter issues on arrival so they can be addressed quickly. We have shared your feedback with our quality assurance, housekeeping and maintenance departments to ensure improvements are made going forward. We hope your youngest child recovered ok. Best wishes - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

Radka “The property was very nice and we really enjoyed our stay there.”
Comfortable beds, lovely big lounge and lovely kitchen with a nice size of a garden. The only thing that was not so great is the check out time was way too early and it would be nice to have few simply things like oil, salt and pepper, but otherwise everything else was lovely.
- Radka, June 2024Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Dingles Cottage and thank you for your suggestions. We hope to welcome you back again in the future - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

Andrew “We loved staying at dingles cottage it was very peaceful and lots of room there was only 2 of us but four people would still have had plenty of room .”
We didn't use part of house as had down stairs bedroom and shower which we didn't use .As had lovely bedroom and big bathroom upstairs with a bath and shower. There was only one thing which didn't mater too much as we were out most of the time including going to local pubs to eat but I tried to use hot plates on oven and they didn't seem to heat up .

Jane “We had a fabulous week at Dingles Cottage as a family of 2 adults and 2 children with pooch.”
The cottage was very comfortable and location beautiful. It was a good base to explore and close to our favourite places Port Isaac, Rock, Padstow and Trebarwith Strand. The local pub was shut but we had access to the park dean for shop if we needed anything, play area and pub. The church is mesmerising and the setting is very peaceful. The garden and summerhouse were pleasant. The only things we thought could improve the cottage are a hairdryer, tv set up(we didn’t bother and just watched iplayer!) and 2 gates on the garden so it was enclosed for the dog. We would 100% recommend it.

Colin Stuart “We struggled for half an hour to open the key safe.”
The property is delightful, warm and welcoming and clearly it’s renovation is of a high standard and tastefully decorated and equipped.

Mark “Love this cottage, this is our second stay, the location between Rock and Polzeath is perfect.”
You need remove the reference to the pub as it is currently closed down and was in our last stay in November as well. The only issue we had was on a day of very heavy rain, water was dripping from the light in the ground floor shower room. I will book this again for later in the year
- Mark, March 2024Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and would love to welcome you back anytime in the future. Well spotted on the pub reference! We will look into the shower room. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

Mark “Hi the heated towel rail in the shower room doesn’t work, there are cobwebs that are months old, but the biggest issue was the underfloor heating that even if you turned off, was still pumping so we needed to open the living room windows in November as we found it too hot!”
The location other than scary beside the church and grave stones was perfect, 5 mins to Rock with a ferry to Padstow, 10 mins to Polzeath and excellent food at the Pittyme Inn Rock or Oyster Catcher in Polzeath. Mawgan Porth Beach is amassing as is the Merrymoor Inn. Cornwall just rocks.

Claire “We chose Dingles Cottage as it ticked all the boxes we needed, especially having a downstairs bedroom with en suite.”
The upstairs bedroom and bathroom were very spacious. Whilst the bath had a shower head attachment, there is no stand-up shower upstairs, only one downstairs. The cottage is a delightful stone building with an extension. The main body of the cottage is lovely and equipped to a high standard, with quality goods and furnishings from Joseph Joseph, Royal Worcester fine bone china and Marks & Spencer to name a few. The two sofas were the comfiest we have sat on at any holiday rental! The cottage was clean and tidy when we arrived. The cottage is tucked away down a private drive and is in a very quiet area. Torches are a must if you go out after dark! One of the neighbours was very friendly. At no stage during our stay were we cold as the heating ran efficiently. Sadly, there was often a smell of oil from the heating, especially in the porch and sometimes in the kitchen. The garden is quite private but is open on both sides to the front of the house and driveway, so is not secure if you take a dog. One of the local dogs was spotted occasionally in the back garden! The downstairs bedroom is clearly suffering from a damp issue: the smell of mould / damp was very strong and the walls around the heads of the beds were covered in black mould. There were no headboards on the beds so pillows rested on these damp walls. Over the course of the five days we were there, the mould exacerbated breathing difficulties in the guest sleeping in that room. This is clearly an issue which needs resolving with some sense of urgency. Whilst we were there, we discovered a leak in the downstairs shower room, which initially we thought was from the toilet, having read previous reviews which mentioned a leaking toilet. The maintenance team came out later on in the same day as we reported it, but could find no leak. We were told to not use it as we had an upstairs bathroom, which clearly wasn’t an option for someone with mobility issues! So we had to continue using that en suite! For a couple of days, all seemed fine but then on Tuesday we discovered that the leak was coming through the light fitting and dripping onto the floor when it was raining. We rang the office who got someone out to look at it straight away as clearly water and electricity do not mix. The maintenance team decided that a roofer was needed and went away. The owner had to be contacted before the issue could be resolved. There was no bucket or similar in which to catch the drips, nor any floor mop to wipe the floor dry. We began to feel unsafe in the cottage as the rain was forecast to get much worse with a named storm due to cover the area on Thursday. We curtailed our holiday on Wednesday, informing the local office that we were leaving, with our reasons. We were told that someone would be in touch in the next day or two. It is now a week later and I have still not heard back from Sykes / John Bray, apart from them asking me for photos of the issues. These two issues, which were clearly fairly major, were such a shame as the rest of the cottage was perfect for us. We would have loved to have stayed the full week but just didn’t feel safe anymore with water coming through the light fitting and running the risk of slips and falls on the wet stone floor, especially at night.

Gill “A beautiful property in an idyllic location.”
Warm, comfortable and very peaceful. We wouldn’t hesitate to return. A guest book would be a great addition and give the cottage a more ‘loved’ feel. However some thoughts which don’t detract from the cottage but may help if you are visiting. Familiarise yourself with the location as there are no signs and it is along a very narrow private drive. There is no welcome pack, and no ‘left overs’ in terms of salt/pepper etc. so pack everything. There are ample pots/pans/utensils but no instruction book for the oven which would have been useful. If you plan to make use of the log burner, you will need to take/purchase supplies as nothing provided. These are all minor points and don’t detract from the cottage itself but could make a beautiful property, outstanding.
- Gill, October 2023Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are so pleased to hear that you found the property comfortable and enjoyed your stay. Thank you for your suggestions on how to improve the property, all feedback is shared with the owner. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

Richard “Lovely cosy and comfortable cottage.”
We would certainly stay again if visiting the area. Cottage generally well equipped but lacked a few essential items ie tea towels, oven gloves, hair dryer. Also there were only two dishwasher tablets provided (probably left by another guest) and no washing powder. We did ask the management company for tea towels on our arrival but they didn't arrive as promised so we bought one ourselves instead.
- Richard, October 2023Thank you for your kind comments, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay, The issues raised have been passed to our housekeeping department. We hope we can welcome you back in the near future. John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner Property Owner

Mark “9am checkout is very early if you are expecting customers to remove linen and have dishes washed before customers leave.”
Doesn’t leave much time for breakfast when you are on holiday.
- Mark, September 2023Thank you for your comments, the departure time for guests is 9.30am, this then gives our cleaners and maintenance people time to deal with any issues before the next check-in at 4pm. I hope we con welcome you back very soon. John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owners Property Owner

Andrew “I had a really great week at the very well equipped cottage on my own with my dog.”
It was very peaceful and the double bed was SO comfortable. The front and back gardens are lovely and I used the table and chairs from the summerhouse to sit outside. The house seems much bigger on the inside - so it felt very spacious. I arrived quite late on the Friday night (my fault!) but it would have been useful to have had more specific directions (to direct me down the lane towards the church). Wouldn’t have been an issue in the daylight as I could have seen the church’s steeple! Having stayed a lot in and around the general area over the years - it would have been a nice touch to have had a little ‘welcome pack’ - maybe some milk, teabags etc - nothing fancy. Also there was no loo paper in the bathroom downstairs - not a disaster though!
- Andrew, August 2023Thank you for your feedback from your stay at Dingles Cottage; we are so glad you enjoyed it so much. I'm sorry if there was no welcome hamper for your arrival - these are provided at the owner's discretion so is something for them to consider for the future.

Steven “We have just completed an 11 night stay at Dingles cottage and we really enjoyed the cottage.”
My daughter was really happy having an on suite. The cottage was really clean and had everything we needed for our home stay. There is also access to the holiday park which has a shop and facilities to amuse the kids if you need. If we were to stay in the area again we would have no issue in choosing The cottage again.

Jennifer “When we booked the property?”
It should of stated the check in and check out times. You would presume that they would be standard with a a check in around 3-4 which there was and a check out of 10-11. Instead it was a check out at 9.30 on a Sunday which should of been stated at the time of booking. When I asked if this could be extended even by 30mins I was told no, really not great service. The cleanliness was not great either, there was cobwebs & dust everywhere and stains on the bedsheets. I appreciate it is a old property and there will be the odd cobweb but the cottage had clearly not been cleaned properly. It did not smell great either. It was much more dated than portrayed in the advert. Lovely location and beds were comfortable.
- Jennifer, July 2023Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused by these cleanliness issues. Your comments have been passed on to the team here at John Bray Cornish Holidays. Regarding the check out time, this is stated on our website and also on the emails our guests receive prior to their stay and we are afraid we have to stick to them to give our caretakers the time needed to get the property ready again. We hope you still managed to enjoy your visit despite these issues and would love to welcome you back to North Cornwall in the future. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner.

Oliver “Lovely cottage, in a great location!”
- Oliver, April 2023 -
Brian “Loved the cottage, looking at earlier feedback the owner has clearly taken positive steps to address those points raised.”
A great character cottage, well-equipped and warm downstairs. A welcome starter pack of logs/firelighter/kindling would have been appreciated. A couple of minor issues were swiftly addressed and did not negatively impact our stay. Fantastic quiet location (it was March), close to the coast and also inland walks but set within neat, dog friendly grounds. A great, welcoming pub' nearby with a good menu. I would certainly come again!
- Brian, March 2023Thank you for taking the time to feedback on your stay.

Chris “The cottage is lovely and in a beautiful spot but there are some faults.”
The stable doors at the front need repairing and it is very hard to open the bottom door. Advertised with an electric fire (not supplied) also advertised with a log burner. There are no tools to be able to use the log burner. The glass doors in the dining area were really draughty. We found it very hard to keep warm. There were a lot of cobwebs, over the cooker hood, walls and the one wardrobe supplied, also loads of dead insects in the wardrobe. Very hard to initially find the cottage in the dark, it would have been helpful to know it was along a private road. The road was full of deep puddles and very hard to get our bikes through. Just a postcode doesn't pinpoint the cottage. We also found the bed and sofas uncomfortable. The bed is very hard and the sofa I struggled to sit on and unfortunately it gave me sciatica.
- Chris, December 2022Many thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We really appreciate your comments, these have been passed onto the relevant departments to be looked into. We have now added What.3.Words to the directions so the property will be easier to find in the future. We look forward to inviting you back to North Cornwall again soon.

Charlotte “Great house, much more spacious than we expected.”
Had everything we needed for a family visit. Kitchen well equipped - we managed to bake a cake and cook a roast with no issues. Easy to book and check in etc as always with Sykes and John Bray. Only criticism is the mattress in the main bedroom needs replacing, I’ve seen on other feedback that it has been replaced recently, if it has it needs doing again with a better quality mattress. It had two dips on each side and a lump in the middle. We turned it which helped but really needs replacing. We’re wanting to book again for February but would be looking for assurance that the mattress has been dealt with.
- Charlotte, October 2022We have been reviewing all of our feedback over this years season, we just wanted to say a massive thank you for taking the time to feedback on your stay.

Tracy “We're so thrilled with Dingles Cottage!”
The cleanliness was brilliant and the facilities excellent. The furnishings are modern and comfortable. I don't feel the photographs properly do it justice as it seems more spacious and light in real life. We have stayed in cottages before in this coastal area and have to say that this one has been our favourite. We will definitely book again. Thank you so much to the owners, for sharing your beautiful property!

Colin “Another lovely stay in Cornwall and in particular Dingles Cottage in St Minver.”
A lovely, quaint, traditional stone cottage tucked away down a quiet lane behind the church. This was our second stay at the cottage and its beginning to show a little bit of wear. As someone's mentioned before, the bathroom door scrapes on the floor and the double mattress isn't the most comfortable, and perhaps it's in need of some TLC and updating in a few areas (a more thoroughclean before arrivals too). However, this doesn't detract from how cosy the cottage feels and its convenience to all the major tourist areas. Will we stay there again....? Yes, definitely!!
- Colin, August 2022Thank you for taking the time to give us some feedback on your stay. We are glad that you had a lovely stay at Dingles Cottage and are sorry that you didn't find the mattress the most most comfortable. This mattress was changed a couple of months ago by the owner.

Fergus “The quality of the appliances and equipment was very good.”
The cottage was in a lovely location, and very peaceful, with a lovely secluded little garden, with very nice garden furniture. Our only negative was the 5ft bed, the mattress was past its best and would benefit from replacing, and I would recommend one of the more modern ones.

Liz “Cottage wasn’t clearly identified, unsure it was correct cottage.”
Outside area around the bins was untidy ( old door ). Large cobwebs around some windows ,summerhouse needed cleaning. An Ant problem in downstairs shower room.

Marilyn “Although in a lovely setting the road access was full of pot holes.”
The second bedroom would have been cramped for 2 adults. There was a musty smell due to the inefficiency of the extractor fan and the towel-rail/ heater not working. In addition I had to deal daily with the ants, obviously nesting behind the shower wall! The rest of the house and garden was comfortable with everything we needed. The end of holiday is partly spoilt by the company's rules of vacating by 9am !!

Mrs. Vivienne Flint “We really enjoyed our stay at Dingles Cottage as always.”
The new arrangements with bedding were a real bonus....so lovely to arrive and find the beds all made up, this really made a difference. The welcome food package was also appreciated but it would be useful to know before arrival what is to be provided so that we do not "double up". Our favourite restaurant is Nathan Outlaws Fish Kitchen in Port Isac, we go there every year and it never disappoints. Also all their food is gluten free ..even the battered things which is good for me because I am coeliac.

About the location
ROCK
Padstow 1.5 miles via ferry; Polzeath 2.8 miles; Wadebridge 6.2 miles.
Rock is a desirable and much sought after coastal village located on the north eastern bank of the River Camel opposite the famous harbour town of Padstow which is easily reached by a regular ferry service. The summer home of royalty and celebrities offering top class restaurants and quality shops, the real draw is the array of watersports including sailing, water skiing, windsurfing and angling. Continuing on a sporting theme, the golf course at nearby St Enodoc is considered to be one of the best in the country. With an abundance of world class beaches all within a short radius it is easy to see why Rock holds its popularity.
This property offers the following short breaks:
- Winter
- Off-season
- Last minute
