Excellent bungalow in a quiet location , nice big rooms and just a 10min stroll to port Erin town
Looked like there was plenty of cups/glasses etc and cooking equipment, good hot water , big lounge but for some reason there is a bed in there ?
Downside is the shower rail in the main bathroom is loose and there is a very bad drain smell when using the en-suite shower also the fan in the en-suite was very noisy
Very good welcome pack
Would return without any problem

We have stayed in quite a few island escapes properties and been really pleased with the accommodation wasn’t so pleased with this one it’s quite out dated ,really needs blinds up bedroom windows curtains are not good in day time ,curtains in lounge don’t even fit window and why a bed in the lounge and a chair behind another chair didn’t seem like a lounge , doors are quite hard to lock and the en-suite bathroom has a not so nice smell the double bed is quite small in the en-suite room more like a three quarter bathroom looks really nice and modern , in the kitchen cooker needs replacing although it did it’s job also good hob and everything you would need for a self catering holiday but really needs a bigger fridge freezer was not big enough for our needs , heating was really good and so was the hot water really pleased with the hamper that was left although we have had better in your other property’s but with the price of food we did understand , the only reason we booked this property was because it was a bungalow and it had its own drive

Great location and a lovely little house. Well presented on the inside. Fantastic little touches like Manx butter, bread and biscuits upon arrival. There are some areas for improvement, such as a drains smell in ensuite (masked a bit by some air fresheners), cobwebs around ceiling and external cobwebs all around windows (and subsequently quite a few spiders we had to remove) and little things like the absence of oven gloves. But all easily fixable. Overall, our family loved it there and it served us really well for our 10 day stay. Recommended.



Comfortable, quiet and central

We really enjoyed our stay. The bungalow is in great condition, with comfy furniture, great bathrooms and a well stocked set of kitchen items. It is in a quiet, residential area - not a great choice if you're looking for somewhere to host a noisy party (we weren't). The house is a 5 min walk from the seafront and the shops too. All in all, a great house in a lovely part of the island. If we were going to quibble, the TV needs replacing with something that will run off the WiFi rather than having to rely on the patchy aerial reception and a washing line would have helped, rather than just relying on the drying rack that was supplied. But we loved the house and recommend it really highly.



A nice bungalow

The bungalow was nice and plenty of space the only thing that would of made a bit better was to have a dishwasher. When we arrived we had been left a welcome pack of bread, milk, cheese, butter and enough tea and coffee to get us through until the following day when we could go shopping. The bedding and towels were clean and white . So all in all a very Pleasant place to stay .

The house was lovely and the location excellent, particularly for coastal walking. Port Erin is a lovely little town and the steam train is a real treat. Excellent chippy and cafe nearby. We had a wonderful week.
