“Still Fabulous”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 July 2011

person found this review helpful

I stayed here last year with a friend whilst doing some studies and returned this year to finish those studies and to be a tourist on the Isle of Man. Last year Chris and Andrew had made us very welcome and this year was no different. Standards have not dropped at all. If anything, they have managed to make it even better. They have restyled the garden and, with its great views across to Jeremy Clarkson's lighthouse, it is a lovely place to sit and relax when the weather allows.

Everything was clean, the breakfasts were great and we were even allowed to sample Manx kippers but not for breakfast! It was a great place to start the day and lovely to return there in the evening. Despite being located nearer the south of the island, it is not a problem to get to any location.

Having finished the studies, I now have to find a reason for a return visit.

“What a lovely B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 June 2011

Many thanks to Chris and Andrew for a lovely stay in their B&B. This was the second time I have stayed with them and the spacious accomodation and breakfasts are just fantastic. I hope to return next year for the TT practice week or Southern 100, or maybe both!!

A delightful welcome from the owners. Room was very clean and bright, Shower room excellent. The bed was very comfortable, Tea, coffee, biscuits well stocked and topped up daily. Wall TV had all the usual freeview channels. Good for catch up TV!. Breakfast was brilliant, nothing was too much trouble and plenty to eat, good start to a day. Ample parking either for car or motorbike. Website directions were very accurate to find this place, care is needed on the twisty road up but once done easy to repeat. Whole area is very quiet, no noise problems.We thoroughly recommend this place and hope to stay again in the future.

“A tranquil, peaceful paradise.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 September 2010

Took my 90 years young mother to the island for a nostalgic birthday treat. She needed both her wheelchair and walking frame to get around. Christina and Andrew, who are perfect hosts, happily accommodated these aids. Mum used the ground floor bedroom with its fantastic en-suite facilities while I had a very comfortable upstairs room. Bedroom tea/coffee/chocolate making facilities are beautifully arranged with a delightful selection of biscuits evident. Found it hard to emerge from under the soft,warm quilt each morning, but made sure that I idid so that breakfast wasn't missed! What a treat! The cottage is a quiet retreat with superb views and a great base for exploring the island by car.
