About this property

Thie-Ma-Chree - a holiday cottage that sleeps 2 guests in 1 bedroom

Thie-Ma-Chree is a delightful single storey self catering holiday cottage with a lovely elevated view out to sea over Laxey bay, Isle of Man. Situated right next to the 125 year old Manx Electric Railway, the tram stops just outside at the magically named Fairy Cottage halt. Jump on this and enjoy a scenic journey to Douglas or Ramsey, or even up to the Isle of Man's highest point - Snaefell mountain!

The cottage is accessed by a single step into the conservatory and two steps into the main living area. The kitchen and bathroom are off the living area. The bathroom has a corner bath with hand held shower facilities.

With a rustic homely interior the holiday cottage offers a perfect base for a single traveller or a couple providing one comfortable double room. Well behaved pets are allowed (not in the bedroom).

With excellent tram and bus links from immediately outside, this Isle of Man holiday cottage is ideal for travellers without their own transport. But if you have a car a private driveway can be found to the side of the cottage.

It was ok
Location was good, easy to get everywhere, I feel the property needs a little updating, especially the shower and also needs an extractor fan in the bathroom to help get the dampness out. The property is equipped well enough it just feels a bit tired and dated.

Excellent location
Just enjoyed our first visit to the Isle of Man. It will not be our last. The cottage is in an exceptional location on the edge of Laxey especially if you decide to purchase a go explore pass and use it on all rail and bus travel around the island. The tram stop is directly outside the back of the cottage and bus stop outside the front. The sunrise over the sea is beautiful to watch. The sun shines in whilst having breakfast in the conservatory. It’s a warm, cosy and welcoming property but it does look tired and could do with a bit of TLC, but some might argue it has character, it’s certainly charming.

A return visit
This is the second time we have stayed at Thie-Ma-Chree and we are already planning our next stay. The place is very well equipped and perfectly situated just outside Laxey. You can walk to the beach and local restaurants and shops, although the walk home is pretty steep!

A weeks stay for The Manx GP
The location was ok for visiting the island by car but not much ells in walking distance. Huge living room and we'll equipped kitchen. Bedroom is a little tricky to get around and the bed is quite small but comfortable. The wifi is a bit hit and miss but more miss than hit. The shower was pretty poor. there is a strong smell of fumes in the conservatory.(possibly heating oil?) Complaints aside it was overall very clean and comfortable and I would use it again.

10/10 Excellent

Nice small cosy home for a couple and two pets, great seaviews not to far from nearest town.
Location was great with tram and bus connections right outside our door less than 1mins walk away. Laxey seaside area about 20mins walk downhill about 45mins uphill extremely steep unless yer fit. Plenty of walks in the area for dog lovers like us. And Laxey has many train / tram connections plus 15 to 20mins from Douglas by car. Downside there was a low wall at back of house not ideal for dogs be nice if owner has a glass panelled barrier there as a suggestion. We blocked it off. Plus because of Tram station at rear of house twice cars parked blocking the driveway to house. Although a traffic cone is provided , it was handier for us to reverse into driveway as door were in boot of SUV. But you needed the pull in area before you made that manouver as sometimes traffic was heavy. Other than that we had a great holiday and would recommend it to anyone wishing to go to the Isle of Man with their pets.
