About this cottage rental
Quay Cottage is a beautifully refurbished fishermans cottage overlooking the picturesque harbour of Port St Mary, a fishing village in the south of the Isle of Man.
The holiday cottage benefits from two cosy en-suite bedrooms, charming living space with electric stove and a small but very well appointed galley style kitchen. The property is located a stones throw from the shoreline and boasts views across the quaint working harbour and down the coast towards Castletown and the Langness peninsula. The Raad Ny Foillan coastal footpath runs past the front door, luring you in to over 90 miles of our breathtaking coastline and rolling hills.
The small and welcoming community of Port St Mary also contains some small independent shops, cafes, restaurants and a friendly harbourside pub.
Whether you prefer to head out and explore or put your feet up and watch the world go by, Quay Cottage is the perfect place for a memorable self catering holiday retreat in the Isle of Man.

Beautifully presented throughout, Quay Cottage is an interesting place to stay. Views over the harbour and out to sea mean there’s a constantly changing view. The bedrooms and bathrooms are modern and spacious.
The kitchen whilst well equipped is very narrow so not easy for more than one person to work in. The staircase to the living room is also extremely narrow making transporting your food upstairs ti the dining area a challenge.
5.0
We had a lovely few days at Quay Cottage. Beds were lovely and comfortable and galley kitchen was really well-stocked. The whole house was beautifully decorated and furnished and the views from the windows were wonderful.
Bringing food up from the ground floor kitchen to the first floor dining table was a minor faff but we used a tray and not a crumb or drop was spilt.
I had been a bit worried about the stairs as i do have a minor mobility problem but it was fine. The staircases aren't as wide as a standard staircase and they bend around a corner, but there are bannisters and places to rest your hand, and the steps are well-carpeted, well-lit and not slippy.
In short, if you're planning to host elaborate dinner parties where you need to run to and from the kitchen all the time, perhaps you should choose somewhere else, but if you're after a beautiful, comfortable place to stay in a lovely location, Quay Cottage is perfect.

This cosy old fisherman’s cottage enjoys an excellent location on the harbour at PSM being very convenient for local buses and starting point for local walks. It is well furnished and comfortable. The kitchen is quite small but well equipped. For those with mobility problems the narrow stairs would be a challenge and food and drink have to be carried upstairs.
4.0
Stairs difficult for elderly people with even slight mobility issues. Taking food upstairs not ideal. Otherwise excellent.

Lovely 3 storey cottage overlooking the harbour.
Very well presented with 2 en-suite bedrooms and the living area on the middle floor.
This cottage is right on the harbourside and in a quiet peaceful area. It has a parking space outside the front door.
So lovely to have local produce as well as tea & biscuits provided.
I highly recommend this accommodation.

We've stayed a few times in this pretty little cottage on the Harbour at Port St Mary. It's quite small for 4 people but the location makes it worth it.
Love waking up to the gorgeous view of the harbour and ideally located for seeing our family who all live in the village.
Would highly recommend.

Excellent location to revisit Port St Mary. Village now lacks a family friendly pub but the views are as good as ever. Very narrow stairs to first floor but not an issue. Kitchen is small (as advertised). Some maintenance to windows and outdoor area required but minor end of season things. Will be certain to return.

Beautiful location, on harbour front with beautiful views across the bay and within easy walking distance to the town. Cottage to high standard, would certainly recommend.

We booked Quay Cottage to attend the American Car Extravaganza. On arrival we were delighted with Quay Cottage which is warm and inviting with a great view of the adjoining harbour. It is very well equipped and comfortable.

Super easy instructions for property location and key access. Fantastic area to stay so beautiful even in the rain. Locals so friendly. Great coastal walks and local amenities.
I even had to ask for help from the local Osteopath who was also super friendly and really helpful even though he was very busy.

Stairs extremely narrow and downstairs bathroom tiny. Location lovely but if recommending would not suit everyone
5.0
Beautiful property in lovely quiet location! Short walk to local shops and the local pub is close by too.
The cottage is well equipped with all you need.
If we had one complaint it was that there was little drawer storage space in the downstairs bedroom.
Despite this, would we stay there again - most definitely yes!

Everything was basically perfect, lovely views even in cold February. Welcome to the sound of seagulls!
The cottage is well equipped and was very clean. Just be prepared for steep stairs & mind your head (which is made clear upfront).
We got excellent take-away pizza’s from Andreas on the High Street, 5 minute walk away.
Would definitely recommend

We spent wonderful days here on the island! In this beautiful cosy and comfortable house. The kitchen facilities were good! A great place to stay!

We were all absolutely overwhelmed with this charming, beautiful property. From the moment we opened the door we were thrilled: from the fabulous harbour views, to the comfort of the cozy lounge, the cleanliness, design, attention to detail, welcome goodies and over all feeling of being thoroughly spoilt. It was more than we could have dreamt of, and I simply could not recommend a stay here highly enough. We will definitely be back. There was not a single thing we could fault. A triumph - an outstanding place, providing us with treasured memories that will last a lifetime.

Quay cottage is charming and ideally located overlooking the harbour. Being able to park outside was a bonus. The views are wonderful!
There was a fold up table table and chairs so we sat outside to eat as the weather was glorious. We also visited the pub which is at the end of the road.
The cottage was clean and well equipped and we loved it. There are narrow stairs with low headroom, but that is because this is a genuine stone cottage on the harbour front.
We had a problem with the iron, I called Island Escapes and they replaced it the same day. Excellent service.
We will definitely book this cottage again.

Holiday cottage
We stayed at Quay cottage in Port saint Mary, for one week it was spectacular cottage, beautiful surroundings. Well thought out cottage. We will definitely be back and hopefully at Quay cottage.
Only thing I would request at the cottage to have blinds at both doors.

Quirky but nice!
Stairs are a challenge for older folk, and it would be nice to have the dining set at ground level, putting that bedroom on the 1st floor. But this is an absolutely wonderful holiday cottage!

April stay
Great stay. The cottage is comfortable and well equipped, and parking outside is ideal. The location was perfect with great views from the windows. Access to the rest of the island was easy as well. Would be happy to stay there again. Only issue we had was with the TV, the controls were a bit tricky but we got it sorted.

Lovely little cottage
We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage, less than 5 minutes walk from our family. It's right on the harbour with stunning views. There was everything we needed, the welcome pack of Manx produce is a really nice touch and the cottage was spotlessly clean. We'd definitely stay there again.
5.0
Stunning location
Port St Mary was a picture perfect destination, the views across the harbour from Quay Cottage were simply amazing, sitting on the window seat with a glass of wine in the evening was a perfect end to each day too. The cottage was perfect for our needs. A great location over looking the harbour with a couple of bars, restaurants and a shop.
We would definitely recommend getting the 5 day bus pass too, the bus service was excellent and the buses arrived to the minute a great way to get around and see the stunning vistas everywhere.
We will definitely return.

A lovely cottage with stunning views
Quay Cottage is a beautifully presented cottage located on the harbour at Port St Mary. It is a 3 storey cottage, with a en-suite bedroom and kitchen on the first floor, lounge and dining area on the second floor and en-suite bedroom on the third floor. It has lovely views over the harbour. It is spotlessly clean, well equipped and very comfortable. This is our second visit and we will definitely return again. Port St Mary itself is a lovely village with a range of shops and restaurants.

Fantastic cottage
This really is a great little place, spread over 3 floors, it has all you need and nothing you don’t!
A little welcome pack was a lovely touch and the incision of basics for the kitchen really helpful (suggestion though, please fill up the salt and pepper and get a drying rack please!)
The top room is the BEST, absolutely stunning! We spent hours on the window sill, eating breakfast, playing Lego and chatting away.
Loved the Christmas decorations, made the cottage feel very homely at Christmas time. It’s the personal touches that really made this place and is the reason we would come back again!
Only down side was the directions. Three words location took you to the back door entrance, which has a sign on it saying Quay Cottage, so we thought it was the front door. There needs to be a sign telling people to go round the block to the front door as it was very confusing, esp trying to get in at night time with a 4 year old in the freezing cold!
Also, please update the WiFi details in the printed materials, again, very frustrating having the wrong WiFi details and only finding an updated section in hand writing in the “problems section” of the materials. That said, great set of materials so thank your for them!
Overall, highly recommended!

An excellent stay
A delightful location and a smart, well equipped cottage. Although we had problems with the television we had prompt help to replace the broken dish. There was little to fault. The instructions to reach the cottage needed a little more detail for the last quarter of a mile and the kitchen equipment would benefit from a few extra items. We would be very pleased to return to Quay Cottage in future years.

A fantastic location for a short stay in the Isle of Man
The cottage is in a lovely setting on the harbour side. Great for those who like coastal walks. The cottage is equipped with all mod cons. It would helped to have more instructions on how to use the microwave and electric rings. We had to call for help but Nick arrived quickly and gave a demo. The views from the living room and top bed room are of the harbour and beyond. It is not recommended for those with limited mobility as the stairs are steep and narrow. The only downside for us was that the downstairs en-suite had a very tiny sink though the shower was excellent and the hairdryer wasn’t very effective.
We would definitely stay there again. It is very handy for The shops. Port Erin is nearby. There is a regular bus service almost outside the back door. The Albert Pub is good for beer drinkers. The welcome pack was appreciated too.

Charming cottage with great views
As the brochure pictures show you get great views over the harbour, with the sun streaming in the front windows as you wake or at least we did! The cottage itself is small with a narrow galley kitchen (only one cook at a time), two reasonable sized double bedrooms with en-suite facilities and a comfy lounge spread over 3 floors inter-connected by narrow stairs, very narrow from ground floor (one bedroom and kitchen) to the first floor lounge. We loved it.
The village of Port St Mary has a small Co-op, a post office/newsagents and a few handy take-away outlets and restaurants. All we tried were very friendly and the food great.
You have only a hundred metres walk to the bus-stop with regular services to Port Erin, Castletown, the Airport and Douglas. Armed with a travel card you can sample all the buses, the steam and electric railways and the Mount Snaefell train - the best way to see the island (at least when the trains are running which they don't in the winter).
4.0
Location was great, cottage was spacious and airy.
Well presented 2 bed property will all amenities. Walking distance to the centre of Port St Mary. Parking outside of property and a very quite location. Great location to explorer the island from. They owner also provided milk, butter, tea & coffee and bread on arrival. Would recommend the Quay Cottage as a great small family holiday home

Birthday Staycation
Beautiful cottage in a lovely location. Very clean accommodation and a cosy atmosphere. The only thing that let it down slightly was the extremely poor WiFi speed. We were unable to watch Netflix as the films would keep buffering and we got a notification that we'd reached the cap of the Internet for the month which wasn't great. Overall our experience was a lovely one.
