About this property

West View - a holiday cottage that sleeps 3 guests in 2 bedrooms

West View is a charming annex to a large traditional Mansion house set in it's own grounds just a few minutes walk from the Isle of Man TT Grandstand in Douglas.

Whilst located in the island's capital, the secluded nature of the property within the large wooded grounds provides a hamlet of tranquillity just minutes from the hussle and bussle of the town.

The property has a spacious feel, with high ceilings and fine traditional decor. The master bedroom has a large king sized bed and plenty of space, with a view over the garden and lawn. The property would suit a couple or small family looking for a central base to explore the island, close to the island's main amenities. For larger groups, book it alongside Deaks Cottage and Woodcroft, which both sleep 4, and are set in the same grounds.

Being so close the TT Grandstand it is sure to appeal to those looking to enjoy the various motorsport events that take place nearby.

Parking is available outside and there is a bus stop close by.

Beautiful house and garden. The Accommodation is slightly smaller than the photos on the website made it appear. Very pleasant, helpful hosts.

Lovely and Convenient

West View is a beautiful old property that is well-equipped for any length stay. There are two floors, and stairs (as mentioned in the property description) that could be a challenge for those with mobility issues. We were able to navigate them without problems. The property is set back in a green area that is beautiful and quiet. It is also located right across the street from bus stops that can connect you almost anywhere on the Isle of Man, which was very convenient for our stay as we didn't hire a car. An excellent experience all around!

Douglas in the rain

I was born in the Isle of Man so it was fun to be in upper Douglas-not far from my childhood house and school. We were unlucky with the weather. It was raining most of the time. We became very good at catching the bus up or down when it was too wet to walk. It is a great location-so easy to get to the shops and the entertainment at the Gaiety and the Villa etc.We liked the fact that our car was very safe behind the gates and in fact we used it less than usual as it was so easy to get into town and take a bus or a train. The house is well set up for visitors, well decorated and everything was very clean when we arrived. I do suggest that it would be good to have something to enable visitors to hang up coats in the entrance . It was difficult to get things dry when we came in from wet outings. The bathroom also needs some updating . However, these comments are minor ones. .We had a lovely time at West View, despite the weather .
