About this cottage rental

Originally a part of the Old House of Keys, the historic former home of Manx politics, Keys Cottage is one of a collection of listed buildings in an historic area of Castletown in the south of the Isle of Man. Beautifully refurbished to a high standard, guests can expect a luxurious experience.

The tasteful combination of modern features such as motorised Velux windows while original features like the exposed wooden beams ensures the retention of its heritage. Stylish furnishings bring it all together to provide a naturally homely feeling to this property.

Sleeping four across two double bedrooms, a double sofa bed can also be made up on request in the upstairs lobby area to allow the property to sleep 6 people. It's perfect for a small group to explore the south of the island. If part of a larger group, book with either Ellan Vannin or Packet House which are just around the corner.

The comfortable open plan living area contains a well-equipped kitchen that extends through to the living area, which benefits from natural light provided by the overhead windows and the added cosiness of a log burner.

Castletown is a great base for a holiday, just 5 minutes from the airport and with a wide range of bars, restaurants and cafes close by. The historic Steam Railway runs through the town connecting it with the islands capital, Douglas and the seaside villages of Port Erin and Port St Mary.

We stayed in Keys cottage for the Southern 100. The cottage is in a great location in the village and is very close to all the shops and pubs. There's a lot of gadgets for the heating, blinds etc... so I hope your tech savvy. We managed to work them all so they're not that complicated. Only request i have is that there are no toilet brushes in either loo. We also weren't informed there was building work going on next door so we couldn't use the back door as there was a scaffolding pole blocking the door from opening. We'd definitely stay here again though.

Keys Cottage proved to be an excellent base from which to explore the island. It was well equipped, comfortable and easy to live in. The welcome pack and luxury toiletries added an extra dimension and were much appreciated. We struggled a bit during the day with the bright sun shining through the windows in the ceiling in the lounge area and would have appreciated blinds there, as well as at the window on the landing at the base of the second staircase and in the lower bathroom. These points, however, were not serious enough to spoil anything; they are merely recommendations for further improvement. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the cottage to others.

This was an amazing place to stay. We came over with elderly parents who can still use stairs. So this was not an issue. Everything you need is in the cottage. Location is great and quiet and reserved parking (non busy season) was always available and easy to get to. If stairs are an issue then this is not the right property for you. Beds very comfortable, showers amazing and all you need in the kitchen. TV was an issue as kept stopping. Coffee machine and milk, bread, cheese etc left for when you first get there.

After a rather rough ferry crossing we arrived into Keys Cottage. What an absolute treat. The property is furnished to a really high standard, laid out well with everything you might need, and was clean and ready for our stay. Really enjoyed meeting some of the friendly staff in the Island Escapes office which is just around the corner from the cottage. I would thoroughly recommend a stay in the wonderful cottage.

By far the best holiday accommodation we’ve ever stayed in. The house interior has a really high end finish, every aspect has been thoroughly thought through. The beds were extremely comfortable and the living space is great. We instantly felt relaxed inside the house. The location is also lovely, we ate in the George pub and had a game of table tennis and played out in the square with our son. I had to pop into the Island Escapes office for something and they were super friendly and very accommodating. All in all an absolutely perfect stay for our short break, we will definitely be coming back

Our family knew we were in for a memorable stay when we arrived at Keys Cottage. The cottage exuded warmth, comfort, and a charming nostalgia that immediately won us over. As a family of four, including two adults and two children, we found the accommodation spacious and cosy. The attention to detail at Keys Cottage was impressive. Every nook and cranny had been thoughtfully planned to ensure a hassle-free stay for guests, from the carefully curated decor to the well-appointed amenities. After our exciting adventures each day, we looked forward to returning to the cottage, which felt like our home away from home. One of the highlights of our stay was the unbeatable central location of Keys Cottage. Everything we wanted to explore was within easy reach, making our adventures even more enjoyable. We were lucky enough to be in town during the Castletown Confetti Festival, an incredible experience for our children. The air was full of excitement, laughter, and vibrant colours as confetti filled the sky. We also loved that Castle Rushen was just a stone's throw away from our doorstep. We enjoyed wandering through the historic corridors, soaking up the stories of the past. It felt like we had travelled back in time, and our children were thrilled by the experience. Overall, our stay at Keys Cottage was genuinely magical. It offered the perfect combination of comfort, convenience, and cultural charm. Suppose you're considering a family trip to Castletown. In that case, we highly recommend Keys Cottage for an authentic and delightful experience. We can't wait to return!
