The Pines - a holiday cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

Tucked into the Bradda hillside overlooking Port Erin in the south of the Isle of Man, The Pines is sufficiently removed from the village to provide a private, idyllic feel yet close enough for easy access to shops and eateries by leisurely stroll or a two minute car journey.

An open plan arrangement containing the lounge, kitchen and dining area is complemented by a rustic wood burning stove to ensure a relaxed stay. Two separate sliding doors gives the area flexibility, enabling the use of the decking area for outdoor dining. Comfortably sleeps 4, with both bedrooms boasting en-suites. Linen & towels are provided, washing & ironing facilities are available as is use of the extensive woodland garden where you can enjoy superb views of Port Erin and the Calf of Man to the south, and Fleshwick to the north.
The Pines sits atop of Port Erin, a small seaside town with lots going on, particularly during the summer months. Why not take a boat trip to the Calf of Man or a coastal cruise? Or paddleboarding, kayaking or sailing within the sheltered bay. Rowany Golf Course, an 18 hole links course is also close by. For food and drink there is a growing choice of restaurants and bars. Local favourites include Bradda Glen restaurant, the stylish, artisanal Foraging Vintners, and the Bay Hotel for a traditional pint of local ale.

The Steam Railway runs from Port Erin via Castletown to Douglas and there is also a regular bus service which travels via the airport every 20 minutes at peak times.

IOM, The Pines, Port Errin
We enjoyed a wonderful week in fine weather. We particularly liked touring off piste on pothole free quiet roads, taking in vast, scenic views. Coastal and glen walking were a treat, but you need to be fit. The IOM combines history, culture and friendly people with a noticeable, quirky sense of humour. A charming house in a lovely setting. Friendly hosts, in particular, Dave the dog who likes to visit. Port Errin is a great base to explore the rest of the island, close to Spanish Head, Milners Tower and not far from the TT route (if that's what interests you). We suggest that the propery would benefit from extra tea towels, cups and plates etc.and maybe another toilet roll for each en-suite. Other than that, ten out of ten.

Stayed for 1 week May 2023 as two couples. The cottage was superb, well equipped, clean and spacious. Situated in a tranquil setting with sea views but a short drive into Port Erin for food etc. Would highly recommend.

An examplary experience. From the minute we arrived, Gaye and her husband couldn't do enough to make our stay comfortable. A lovely cottage (the photographs on the website don't do it justice) with log burner, comfortable furniture and well appointed rooms and gardens. A box of chocolates, supplies and will be awaited us and we were sorely sad to leave. Five stars all the way.
