Clean room, very friendly service with essy check in at the guesthouse, full english breakfast everyday with cereal choices and juice available. Location is very central, walkable distance to the ferry station, bus stop and the city centre.

A very lovely guesthouse with an even lovelier host. Peter is such a kind-hearted man, keen on making your stay as comfortable as possible. I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely stay there again!

This is the second time we have stayed there. Peter, the host, was very accommodating even changing our room to the one that we stayed in before. The breakfast is very good and sets you up for the day. It’s a very short walk to the shops from the guest house.
Jacqueline, 9-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Peter, the owner, can't do enough for you...just wants to make sure you are happy and comfortable. His knowledge of His island is immeasurable...obviously loves where he lives and instills a want on you to visit it all, we will be coming back to do just that 😉
MARK, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean and comfortable. Full marks to the owner for sorting out the food allergy items that I had forgotten to mention in the original booking. We would stay here again if in the area.
David, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay, convenient location. Thankyou.

I took a short notice 4 night stay during the 2025 Manx GP/Classic TT. The excellent host Peter must be mentoned for his efficiency, friendliness and overall knowledge of the Isle of Man. The property is 15 mins walk from the Douglas ferry terminal/bus terminal and 25 mins walk to the TT/Manx GP paddock/pits area with Bray Hil approx 20 mins walk. Also only 5 mins walk down to the beach/promenade so ideally suited for ferry foot passengers. Thoroughly recommended.
Alan, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place is well hidden in a residential street right behind the lively Market Street and the promenade. It's a slightly older building, so please be prepared to climb a few steep stairs. The host, Peter, is absolutely amazing. He's very friendly, helpful and accessible in case some assistance is required. And he's there to cook a full breakfast each morning, which was an absolute delight. As the place is in a residential street, it's quiet at night, yet close to all amenities like shops, supermarkets and pubs. I found my room to be clean, and the shared amenities were clearly cleaned on a daily basis, too. If I'm in a position to visit the Isle of Man again, I'll definitely check if this place has a room available for me.

Look, it’s a guesthouse not the Ritz! Room was small but perfectly functional and newly fitted out. Property itself slightly stuck in a time warp but really well managed and friendly. Excellent breakfast.
