Two week stopover 5/5

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, theres plenty of wildlife to keep you company too. It was a privilege to have stayed here.

Wonderful stay in a wonderful place 5/5

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!

A relaxing quarantine week 4.5/5

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....
