Perfect for a couple's getaway, Elgin Retreat offers single level guest accommodation located in the heart of Maughold on the north east side of the Island, just 5 minutes outside Ramsey, where a variety of shops, pubs and restaurants can be found.

Local to Elgin Retreat, you can explore the country lanes and two beautiful beaches on foot, the perfect way to take in this part of the island. There is also The Venture Centre just up the road, an outdoor activity centre offering many activities including kayaking, archery and coasteering. If you prefer to stick around there's still plenty to do - guests can enjoy use of an outdoor firepit, BBQ area, small bar area, sun terrace and the outdoor sauna.

A couple of minutes walk away is a stop on the Manx Electric Railway which you can take into the town of Ramsey, or head down the coast to Laxey and Douglas. You can also hop aboard the Snaefell Mountain Railway from Laxey and experience the Isle of Man from its tallest peak!

Elgin Retreat consists of one bedroom which can be made up as a super king or two singles, as well as a large lounge with a sofa bed, giving you full flexibility to enjoy your stay. There's also a bathroom and a kitchenette which also has a fridge, freezer, microwave, washing machine, kettle and toaster. There is no oven or hob provided.
