Pets

Fig Tree Cottage is a cosy, two bedroom house, situated in the relaxing seaside town of Whitstable.

The cottage offers a wonderful family stay in all seasons and is conveniently located just a very short stroll from the beach, harbour, and town. During the winter months, enjoy cuddling up on the sofa with a cosy throw while the log burner gently warms the room. In the summer, relax in the delightful garden beneath the fig tree, perhaps with a refreshing cold drink.

Accommodation

Step inside Fig Tree Cottage’s recently decorated living and dining room, where an inviting log burner creates a cosy ambience for enjoying films or dancing to music on the BOSE speaker. The galley-style kitchen is equipped with everything you need to prepare a hearty meal, including a Nespresso coffee machine for enjoying a frothy coffee in the morning.

Ascending to the first floor, you’ll discover a contemporary bathroom complete with a bath and overhead rain shower, a toilet, and a basin. You’ll also find a spacious double bedroom at the front and a charming bunk bedroom at the rear, making the cottage an ideal retreat for either a family or a couple.

The large, mature cottage garden, featuring beautiful fig trees that line the path, offers a perfect setting for evening relaxation and backs directly onto the renowned Crab and Winkle Way.

Neighbourhood

Nestled in a conservation area, Fig Tree Cottage is just a three-minute stroll from Whitstable’s unique shops and tempting cafÃ©s and restaurants.
