Baljean is a charming, eighteenth century cottage, enjoying an enviable position overlooking Port Erin Bay and its lovely sandy beach.

Short visit to see friends.

We stayed in Baljean when visiting friends on the island. The cottage was easy to get to using public transport, being only a short walk from the station. When we arrived there was a welcome pack of bread, cheese, butter and milk with tea, coffee and biscuits also available. The facilities were great but we didn’t use most of them as we were out visiting. The views from the cottage were beautiful, looking straight out over the bay. It was lovely and peaceful and very comfortable. We would recommend a visit and will definitely try to stay here again.



Beautiful

great place for a couple-and child-pre 17
single beds -are narrow due to room size

to park you have to reverse your way out around a dody stone wall corner-thats takes practice. Our neighbour Dan ( resident ) would jump in the car and do the job-with some expertise and deftness.

Would return to Baljean and use Island Escapes again, great customer services, they really want you to enjoy the stay. Home itself was perfect, with really nice features and quality fixtures and fittings, not to mention the stunning views.

Baljean is ideally situated overlooking the bay at Port Erin just a short walk to the beach. The house has plenty of character and is decorated and furnished to a high standard. The parking and access road is a little narrow and slightly challenging. Over all we enjoyed our stay and would happily return.

We had a lovely stay in the Baljean overlooking Port Erin beach. It has been recently renovated to a high standard and we loved the walk-in shower.

Baljean is a lovely property to stay in and is in a beautiful location.
It is very well equipped and was exceptionally clean. The condition was excellent. We had an issue with the washing machine while we were there and island escapes responded promptly even offering to pay for any laundry we needed doing while it was fixed.
The only thing that could improve the property is more comfortable lounge furniture. The chairs and sofa really aren’t nice to spend a whole evening sat on.

A really nicely renovated property moments from Port Erin beach. We loved the welcome pack, underfloor heating and log burner. Can't wait to stay here again!



Perfect location,

Looking down to the harbour, , calm and uncluttered decor with all essentials present, sitting furniture limited but thoughtful use of the small space. Good kitchen and bathroom.Only small cars could use parking outside house. Bay Hotel good ale and friendly and food better than it looks. Great bookshop. Surf's up on Sundays.

Lovely cottage located less than 2 minutes from Port Erin beach with excellent views of the beautiful harbour and daily sunsets :)

Baljean is stylishly finished and well maintained. The outside electric sockets (located in the walk way at the side of the property) proved very helpful for re-charging our plug-in hybrid car. Also loved 'Wellington', the dog that guards the outside rear of the property; you'll know what I mean when you see him ;)

[We had a small problem with the dishwasher, but this was resolved very prompty by Island Escapes.]

Would definitely recommend this property and Port Erin - hope to be back soon :)



A great place to stay in Port Erin

Nicely renewed attractive property with stunning views over the bay at Port Erin. Port Erin is one of the more attractive destinations on the Isle of Man and Baljean is a stunning location.

The position of Baljean is quite special, overlooking Port Erin Bay, which is why we have spent quite a few holidays there over the years. However the recent modern refurbishment has added to the appeal, giving it a real seaside holiday feel.
The kitchen and upstairs rooms are very well appointed with good facilities. The decent sized sitting/dining room, with excellent views would probably benefit from a more substantial table and chairs and the TV relocated for more all round relaxed viewing, especially when there are more than 2 guests.
We will however certainly continue to use this ideally situated cottage which ticks all the boxes for our requirements.



A relaxing location.

A lovely cottage with outstanding views out to sea and the whole of Port Erin Bay. Very convenient for shops, buses, trains and many walking opportunities. Parking location may pose a problem for some due to there being no turning areas and therefore having to reverse in or out of the road. The cottage is very well equipped, especially the kitchen. Other rooms, such as the second bedroom, would benefit from a mirror near a power point and maybe a small shelf as space is limited. Milk, butter, cheese, bread and a small selection of biscuits, tea and coffee were gratefully appreciated. A most enjoyable stay.
