Figgy Cottage Reviews
We loved our stay at Figgy Cottage. It is hard to explain in pictures and this review, but it has a really lovely feel to it. Alan was extremely responsive and provided us with lots of local information about the area. It is a great location - 5 minute walk (if that) into town - and we enjoyed being close but not right in the centre of St Ives. The beach is really close and it’s great having a private parking spot. It was also lovely having two areas of outside space at the cottage. The whole place has been done up to a really high standard and we loved the personal touches throughout. Thank you for a lovely stay (in difficult times post lockdown); we would love to come back soon!”

We have just had the best Christmas staying at Figgy Cottage. If you are looking for that perfect authentic St Ives cottage, this is the place. It’s very private and quiet. The cottage is beautifully decorated and finished with everything you need provided. The garden is stunning and great if you have dogs with you. Our pug loved the garden. In these authentic cottages sometimes the kitchens can be too small but figgy cottage has a great, well equipped kitchen which allowed us to cook a full Christmas dinner!! We cannot wait to return.

Wow!! Figgy Cottage surpassed our expectations. My boyfriend and I stayed for three nights over Valentine's weekend and, despite storm Dennis hitting the shore, were so pleased with our stay. The cottage itself is stunning, so clean and fresh, yet has all the beautiful finishing touches fitting with Cornish traditional decor, almost a cute nautical feel. The cottage has absolutely everything you could possibly need, and upon arrival we were welcomed with a lovely welcome note, olives, cheese, delicious freshly baked bread bread and cider (our favourites, how did they know??!!). The location is perfect, it's on the doorstep to Porthminster beach, a very short walk from St Ives Centre and a stones throw from the fabulous Harbour Hotel (my boyfriend and I booked into an afternoon spa day at the Harbour Hotel with a massage and afternoon tea - lovely, highly recommend). I would also recommend Porthminster Cafe which overlooks Porthminster beach, stunning food and friendly staff, again a stones throw from Figgy Cottage. If you're looking for a lovely getaway in St Ives, I highly recommend you choose Figgy!

Arrived tired after an 8 hour drive to find an absolute haven. Figgy Cottage is spotlessly clean, extremely well equipped with exceptional attention to detail. Located just a couple of minutes walk from the centre of St Ives. Figgy Cottage: We took the train from St Ives to Lelant and walked the coastal path back to St Ives. It was a perfect walk. Please be reassured that Figgy Cottage will not disappoint. It really was a fabulous place to explore the area from. We will look forward to a return visit.

Figgy cottage is absolutely perfect, beautifully decorated, cleverly designed to make best use of the space, lovely personal touches and a brilliant outdoor space. The location could not have been more perfect, cross over the road for the steps down to the beach and a five minute walk into the heart of St Ives.

FIGGY COTTAGE: To put it simply, a wonderful cottage in a superb town, we don’t feel like we could have asked for more. The cleanliness and attention to detail were second to none and we felt comfortable and relaxed from the moment we arrived. We’re already planning our trip back next year with our dog Belle.

FIGGY COTTAGE: Wonderful cottage with lots of charm in an ideal location. Just minutes away from the beaches and the train station, all-in-all a great place to stay.

FIGGY COTTAGE: Our stay at Figgy Cottage was wonderful. A perfect, cute little cottage just right for two. The location was good and it was easy to get into town and the harbour as well as close to the railway station. Plus of course the beautiful Porthminster Beach just opposite and the Porthminster cafe, which is definitely a must to visit. Everything in the cottage was so thoughtfully done and very clean. We had an easy, comfortable and enjoyable stay. All communication with Alan was quick and helpful.
