Enjoy a relaxing break in this cute, romantic bolt-hole
Situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty
Pretty cottage garden for sunny days, and a cosy feel for chillier weather
Ideal for couples looking to get away for peace and quiet

Lovely relaxing stay in peaceful location.

Wonderful first impression on driving up to the property, location was perfect for a bit of 'me' time. Struck lucky with the weather and was able to sit outside a lot of the time, enjoying the birds, of which there were plenty, including a sparrowhawk that sat on the fence and shocked the socks off me, closest I'd ever been to one, a special moment. Garden was in Autumn mode, so a bit bare, which is only to be expected, apples all over the place which probably came down in the high wind a few days before but I managed to salvage quite a few so they weren't wasted. They were truly delicious too. A bit disappointed with the kitchen facilities, only 1 very small baking tray and nothing to use as a casserole dish for the oven, not a teaspoon to be found, and no measuring jug, luckily I didn't need to use the frying pan, it would have involved climbing on a chair to reach it, not ideal for an oldish person on her own. Sofa was very comfy, bed was a bit too soft for me but I recognise that's a personal preference, I had to hoist myself out of the dip, mattress seemed to suck you in. Didn't see a soul my entire stay, apart from a delivery guy, and that suited me fine. Bath was wonderful, piping hot water and nice and deep, I lounged for quite some time. All in all I had a lovely relaxing stay and would certainly book again, I'd just bring a few kitchen bits with me next time.

Lovely to be able to come and stay at Figgy again.
Just noticed a slight deterioration all looking like it needs a decoration A big Freshen up needed. !! Painting etc. all looking.a little bit dull & grubby !
not quite clean enough for me. Didn’t get that feeling of clean. But I brought my own cleaning bits any way Still didn’t spoil my time with you. But I would be hesitant to rebook until TLC improvements have been made.

We were between house moves and The Figgy was our temp home. Location is superb, really private and set in beautiful surroundings. The accommodation is really homely and warm, especially with the nights drawing in. Kitchen is functional and TV and internet all creating creature comforts, there’s plenty of wildlife to keep you company too. It was a privilege to have stayed here.

Thank you for your review of The Figgy. Access to the tennis court is only available to guests of Dormestone House, and not The Figgy. We note your comments re: the shower and will pass this onto the owner for them to look into further.

Wonderful stay in a wonderful place

The Figgy is a lovely little cottage situated in the grounds of a beautiful estate. The place has everything you could need for your stay (we especially loved the bath!), and would be ideal for anyone visiting anywhere in Kent. The information booklet provided was very helpful, and the staff at Bloom Stays were delightful and always happy to help.

We would absolutely recommend this place, and intend to be back ourselves soon!

The Figgy is a delightful little home away from home and we had a lovely week of walks, good food, fabulous baths (roll-top!) and SNOW! Would love to return....
