We found this amazing place on Island Escapes. It looked great in the pics and just what we were after for our week away on the wonderful Isle of Man.

It was easy to find using what 3 words, and we were met by the owner. She was friendly and professional. She got us a few bits in to help us out like milk etc, and had a nice conversation with us which led to some great tips about where to eat and things to see.

The cottage was spotless and in excellent condition. It was very nicely furnished and comfortable to be in. There is an absolutely incredible view to the back of the cottage that we never got bored with.

Did i mention the weather? Sunshine all week. A perfect week away.

This cottage is not a cheap rental. Dont let that put you off at all. Its great value for what you get. We will be returning in a couple of months to exactly the same place.

Wonderfully presented, maintained and comfortable accommodation that means that the relaxation begins as soon as you have unpacked. Lynn is an exceptional host and communication before and during our visit was helpful and friendly. Ian was extremely helpful with regard to the hot tub and this was a real luxury during our Christmas break. If you are wondering if Broogh Fort Cottages live up to the hype don’t hesitate you will not be disappointed. Will definitely be back for a return stay - truly outstanding five star accommodation- thank you.

This was our first time at The Clays and we loved it. Lynn made us feel really welcome checking that we had everything and showing us how to use the hot tub. In addition, the welcome pack’ she provides is the best we have experienced in any of the Island Escape Cottages we have stayed in.
The beds were really comfortable and the space and luxury feel of The Clays made our stay very pleasurable. We will definitely recommend it to our friends and will look to stay again soon.

I have stayed in one of the other properties within this gated area.
This is one reason why i chose this property.
My wife & i relaxed on the patio overlooking the wonderful views, so peaceful.
The area is very private and the surrounding are very well maintained.
Thanks to Lynn and her team for the great hospitality and fantastic properties they provide.
Would recommend 100%.

We had an amazing time at the cottage. The cozy atmosphere, charming decor, and serene surroundings made for a perfect getaway. The attention to detail in every aspect of the cottage, from the comfortable beds to the well-equipped kitchen, exceeded our expectations. I can't wait to return and create more wonderful memories in this little slice of paradise.

As first time visitors to the island we appreciated the above and beyond assistance Lynn gave to make our stay as comfortable and fun for the kids as possible. We all thoroughly enjoyed the jacuzzi.
We will definitely be returning soon.
