TAKEN ABACK BY THE QUALITY

The moment we arrived we were taken aback by the quality throughout the property. The fact we have enquired about a return whilst still on holiday speaks volumes.

PARKING AND GARDEN IS A RARITY IN ST IVES

To have parking and a garden is a rarity in St Ives. Knowing you don’t have to stress about finding a parking space is a great bonus.

WOW!!

Wow!! Figgy Cottage surpassed our expectations. 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,… If you're looking for a lovely getaway in St Ives, I highly recommend you choose Figgy!

BEAUTIFULLY SNUG

Figgy Cottage is an absolute gem, cosy and so well-equipped. We’ve been so comfortable here and haven’t slept so well in years. To return each evening to such a beautifully snug cottage has been so lovely.

THE 'LITTLE THINGS'

What a super and idyllic cottage. Everything you need for a home-from-home stay has been thought of. It’s often the ‘little things’ that truly make a visit enjoyable, memorable and lasting…..thanks Figgy Cottage. It was a delightful experience.

SPECIAL TOUCHES

Figgy Cottage is a very cosy and welcoming spot - beautifully decorated with loads of special touches. Our favourites were the garden and patio which are a wonderful spot to relax, and the location, just above Porthminster Beach and just outside the hustle and bustle and crazy traffic of St. Ives.

SWAM EVERY MORNING

Swam every morning at Porthminster beach, only minutes from the door.

PERFECT LOCATION

We loved our stay at Figgy Cottage. Perfect location and cosy, even on colder autumn evenings.

Figgy guest book, Oct 2020

SECLUDED SPOT

Great stay in a secluded spot. Took full advantage of breakfast in the garden in the sunshine.

Figgy guest book, Sept 2020

LOVELY FEEL

We loved our stay at Figgy Cottage. It is hard to explain, but it has a really lovely feel to it. It is a great location - 5 minute walk (if that) into town - and we enjoyed not 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.

Airbnb, Jul 2020

REALLY CHUFFED

Absolutely wonderful…really chuffed with this find…..loved all the little touches.

Figgy guest book, Feb 2020

GARDEN IS STUNNING

We have just had the best Christmas staying at Figgy Cottage. If you are looking for that perfectly 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.

Trip Advisor, Dec 2019

ABSOLUTE HAVEN

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. 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.

Trip Advisor,  Sept 2019

WONDERFUL

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.

Airbnb, Jul 2019

PERFECTLY FORMED

QUAINTEST COTTAGE

We have never been to St. Ives or Figgy Cottage before but it’s safe to say it’s now a firm favourite. Figgy Cottage is the quaintest cottage I’ve ever seen, so cute and cosy, great location and has everything you need for a great time away. I can’t believe my boyfriend picked it all on his own!

Figgy guest book, Feb 2020

EVERYONE ELSE

Just like everyone else we’ve loved Figgy Cottage. A perfect place to stay and a wonderful town.

Figgy guest book, Nov 2019

REALLY CUTE

An absolute pleasure to stay here. Really cute, warm, cosy and comfortable.

Airbnb, Nov 2019

HOME FROM HOME

An absolute gem of a cottage tucked away yet so accessible to the train station, main road, beach and town centre. Every need is catered for including hot water bottles should you feel the cold! Such gestures make this a truly home from home experience.

Airbnb, Sept 2019

THE BEST AIRBNB

The best Airbnb I have ever stayed in. 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 Saint Ives.

Airbnb, July 2019

TOP-NOTCH

Figgy Cottage is perfect for a holiday in St. Ives. We had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend to a couple wanting a few days in a top-notch place in Cornwall.
