    Bed was a little cosy, maybe because we're used to larger one 😁

    Location was a bit remote but house was very nice. Breakfast was excellent and very tasty, with plenty of choice.

    It would have been nice to have some hand lotion in the bathroom as I forgot to take my own.

    Jerry and Sal were very warm, friendly and helpful. They were happy to give advice on places to visit, the best places to park and to eat out. We had lots of choice for breakfast and it was local, fresh produce, cooked well.

    Only that Booking.com don’t take payment and the property don’t take card. But that’s more on me for not reading in advance.

    The Fig Tree is a short drive from Falmouth town centre and located in some beautiful countryside. It was raining on arrival and I was welcomed at the entrance and given tea and cake. The property is stunning. If you want quiet and peaceful this is for you. Very beautifully decorated and maintained. Excellent breakfast / relaxation room area. But the best for me was the bed. Firm mattress rather than the soft rubbish which cripples my back. Superb breakfast too. This place is a 10/10 gem.

    There was nothing we didn't like.

    This is a beautiful house in a great location with a good view. The hosts have been very thoughtful in how they have presented the room with lots of unique touches including a daily gift of home baked cakes. It was very comfortable and they provided a big breakfast with a great selection which was first class. They were helpful with suggestions for the local area. This was a first class accommodation and certainly great value for money, so thank you for. making my daughter's birthday and graduation day very special. Very highly recommend.

    We liked everything in Fig Tree House and definitely going back.

    Fig Tree House was a little piece of heaven. The setting is incredibly serene, surrounded by lush greenery, and the hosts, Sal and Chris, were absolutely perfect. If you’re in need of some quiet time, this is definitely the place to relax, recharge, and detox.

    Nothing.

    Fig Tree House is set in a quiet rural location. We even saw a deer out the window. Sally was very knowledgeable about the area and was an amazing host. The breakfast was delicious and the room was clean and had views over the landscape.

    My bedroom was near the dining room and was a bit noisy when people had breakfast at 7.00 am. You could hear people moving about on the ceiling above early in the morning. It was a twin room. I always find the duvet slips off single beds in the middle of the night. Maybe a double bed upstairs would have been even better!

    Location, breakfast, friendly proprietors.

    There was nothing not to like!

    The figtree House was set in a lovely location with a beautiful well kept garden. Plenty of parking space on the off road drive way, A very spacious breakfast/lounge room with lovely views all around and very light and airy. Also with very comfortable sofas to relax into, with a wood burner that would be very inviting in the cooler months. Lovely decor throughout and the bedrooms had everything you needed with a modern on suite . The breakfast was amazing, 5 star! And plenty of it Lovely personal touches, Sally gave us homemade cakes and drinks on arrival and the following day, a great treat! We we're made to feel very welcome and felt very comfortable staying there. A wonderful weekend away 😃

    We loved the main garden room used for breakfast and sitting room space. It has great views towards the Helford river. Extra nice touch was the cake to have with afternoon tea when one got returned from days activity. For families with children there is a Zip Wire centre in an old quarry just up ghe road.

    We were unfortunate to have our vehicle breakdown twice on the way to Fig Tree House. We phoned ahead to notify them. We arrived at 10pm to be welcomed with tea and cakes! Superb facilities, wonderful food and very pleasant hosts.
