Great quiet place for a relaxing holiday
Tucked away in the north of the island this is a lovely place to stay if you want somewhere peaceful whilst (provided you have a car) not far from lots of IoM attractions. Communication in advance of our stay was excellent, as was the warm welcome from Shirley and John, who were discreet hosts but very helpful if we had a query. A comfy lounge, a well appointed and equipped kitchen (I swear everything you could need had been thought of and provided), a good sized bedroom (personally the bed gave me a touch of backache, but that's my back, not a comment on how comfortable the bed was), and a bathroom with a lovely bath (and lots of hot water). It was necessary to leave a small light on in the bathroom and the door mostly closed to ensure there was no tripping down or up the step across the stairs in the night when moving from the bedroom to bathroom (sign of old age having during the night loo trips!). Also the property downstairs is a little dark even on a bright day, so had to put the lights on more than we are used to. On the plus side, we much appreciated all the lovely welcome touches, including a big bowl of fresh fruit, milk, etc. There was even a toy Manx cat to keep as a souvenir. There are lots of walks locally (many of which are not difficult or lengthy) in the local wetlands area and reserves. Also many glens, beaches, bays etc, where the wildlife is abundant, as well as heritage sites, steam trains and trams to enjoy. We met quite a few people from the island over our two week stay; everyone was friendly and helpful. There was too much to see on the beautiful Isle of Man in just two weeks, so we shall return to the island and to this property.
