positive:
Delicious food from morning until night.
This establishment offers great accomodation, but it also has an excellent restaurant that stands tall by itself. Enjoy a hearty Cornish cooked breakfast and choose from a varied menu for both lunch and dinner. The food here will not disappoint.

Courteous and friendly staff are a great help.

Negative Reviews
negative:
Free Wi-Fi can be quite weak here.
Depending on which room you stay in at this bed and breakfast, you might find the free Wi-Fi signal is a little weak. If it is a big issue and you need to use the internet in your room take up the problem with reception.
negative:
Some rooms can be a bit small for their price.
There are larger rooms and smaller rooms here, and whether you get stuck with one of the small ones is a bit of a lucky dip. You might feel that you're not getting your money's worth if you're lumbered with a small room.
negative:
Not exactly the height of comfort.
There are a few things that The Plume of Feathers need to fix to bring comfort levels up a notch. The temperature in rooms can be too hot or too cold, so individual temperature control is necessary. Also, water temperature in the bathroom can be erratic.
