A warm welcome awaits you from Chris and Andrew when you arrive at their excellent B&B. Equal if not better than many hotels we have been in. Rooms are warm and comfortable with many home comforts. Breakfasts are delicious and served always with a smile. This is a very happy B&B with a lovely atmosphere and we will go again... More

It's not often that a return visit lives up to memories of an earlier visit. Our return did just that. So long as you are happy staying in lovely countryside where a car is essential this place is perfect. We love the South of the island and love this place. Superb room and a wonderful welcome and the island came... More

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... More

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!! More

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... More

We stayed with Chris and Andrew for the Manx GP along with our German friends. Chris and Andrew welcomed us into their home and lavished us with care, attention and tasty food. The motorbikes were housed in a warm dry and carpeted garage too and R loved walking straight from our ensuite bathroom into the garage to tinker on his... More

Our week in the IOM was the most relaxing week we have ever had in decades of B&Bs. Quiet location, superb views, top class breakfasts (including kippers), constant hot water, comfortable bed, excellent nights sleep, ginger cake on arrival and the ever helpful, friendly hosts. Yes, I banged my head on the 4' bathroom door, but that is one of... More

Just returned from a four night stay with my 9 year old grandson. This place is as near perfect as you could find if you want a wonderful welcome, caring hosts, a lovely room and a stunning location. We came to fish and fish we did but every time we returned to the cottage we were warmly welcomed. We have... More
