A renovated and well-appointed rural barn conversion minutes away from lush plantations and the coast.

A well equipped and spacious barn.

A well equipped and spacious barn which met our needs ( pensioner couple with a dog). The property is, however, very open to a busy main road so dogs cannot be off lead. The owner called round to see us and was friendly and helpful. There was lots of information about local places provided in the cottage in addition to all the information provided by Island Escapes.

We use Island Escapes twice a year when visiting family on the island.
We have stayed in a number of different places offered through Island Escapes and Kingsley Cottage offers a similar standard.
The cottage is well placed to serve visiting all parts of the Island, providing comfortable accommodation, good kitchen facilities but showing minor wear and tear in certain parts of the property.
The combined kitchen and lounge area is very spacious as are the two bedrooms and shower room.
Kingsley cottage is comparable to other accommodation we have used in the past, with each of those we have stayed offering something different for us.
The property sits on the side of a main road and is exposed to the elements particularly the wind!
However, we would recommend this property and would have no hesitation in booking this for future visits.

The owners were lovely, the accommodation was beautiful and well equipped for everyone’s needs. We had a very enjoyable and comfortable stay. It’s a good location easily accessible to everywhere ( by car). 10 mins to Port St. Mary or Port Erin or Castletown, 15 mins to Douglas or Peel areas. I would happily stay there again and highly recommend booking.

Stunning property in a great location. The owners were fantastic they welcomed us to the property and were on hand if we needed anything. Highly recommend this place and is great for families with plenty of outdoor space for kids to play. Would happily stop here again.

First time to the IOM and we had a lovely stay. Cottage had everything we needed and was a perfect base for our holiday, even with our 6.3m camper van and 3 dogs. Tea, coffee & milk were much appreciated - thank you.

A comfortable holiday base, which could made even better with a few minor improvements.

This made a comfortable base for our holiday. The bed was excellent and the kitchen and bathroom well fitted with good quality equipment.
It would have been nice to have seen some form of welcome pack, even if this had consisted of no more than a pint of milk and some biscuits. We were also somewhat surprised to find that what we viewed as basics, i.e. iron/ironing board and a teapot, were not provided. As we weren't provided with information as to when bins would be emptied and the owners lived on site, I can't help thinking it would have been more appropriate if they had taken on this responsibility themselves.
Having said all of the above, this was still a comfortable base for our holiday and none of the points mentioned spoiled our enjoyment.
