Property is very spacious and fairly comfortable. It had all the necessary amenities / facilities for self catering. Plenty of useful local information. We had to report a couple of issues to Island Escapes that affected and somewhat spoiled our stay. (Hopefully these will be fixed and not cause future guests problems) Lovely garden but we had poor weather and so were unable to take advantage of it. A good place to stay for a holiday in the south of the island. However, we found a superior property in the north so this property was therefore only second best for us.

Riverside cottage is a picture book place to locate yourself for a stay in the IOM, The house itself is very clean, well decorated and retains some rustic features, the key thing for our group was the four bedrooms. The position is fantastic with views over the sea and green uncluttered countryside, right next to a meandering footpath by a stream in its own idyllic little valley that eventually runs out to the sea. Nearby Port St. Mary is just a short drive away for everyday shopping needs and has a small selection of eateries and bars within walking distance to while away the evenings. There's plenty of things to look at in Port St. Mary and nearby is the coastal footpath to roam on your way to the Calf of Man if you like a good walk. For days out, there's easy access to a lovely beach and many more facilities in nearby Port Erin. Castletown is a short drive away and is well worth a day of sightseeing. Road access to places like Peel, Ramsey and Douglas is straightforward. For an extra bit of interest there's a narrow gauge steam railway from Port Erin to Douglas plus the Electric Tramway from Douglas to Ramsey that passes the Laxey wheel with a branch that climbs to a cafe on top of Snaefell. In summary: the accommodation is an excellent find in a stunning location on an idyllic island that has a relaxed pace with many friendly people - it's all five star

Had a great time at Riverside Cottage, a comfortable house in peaceful surroundings. We loved the spacious kitchen/diner and found the downstairs shower room a bonus for a group of 5 adults. The garden is a lovely place to sit on sunny days and distant views of the sea are a bonus. Highly recommended.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at the comfortable and well equipped Riverside Cottage. The location is stunning and there are many beautiful walks to be enjoyed in the local area.

Beautiful property in a beautiful location. A short drive to Port Erin and Port St Mary. Garden nice to enjoy morning coffee and more. IOM itself just perfect.

Perfect stay for us, outside storage for our bikes. Quiet location, beautiful house, everything spotless and of high quality

Beautiful cottage with beautiful views, the garden was lovely with a patio area where we enjoyed a bbq. The house was very clean and facilities were perfect. Beds were comfortable with extra cushions and blankets available. The welcome pack was a lovely touch especially the bread, cheese and wine. Amazing stay thankyou very much.

Excellent standard of accommodation. Lots of nice touches including toys and books. Plenty of space inside and out. Dishwasher a bit redundant as not enough crockery to warrant using it. One of the beds was a bit too firm and pillows a bit thin. Wonderful garden and location for views and walks but a bit tricky for cars. Not enough turning spaces for an estate and very narrow road to the turning circle.

We loved this cottage. The location was ideal, the cottage itself was beautifully fitted out and the garden was lovely. The cottage is very comfortable and the garden is perfect for catching the sunshine in the morning and the evening. We would love to stay again.

A lovely cottage, well equipped, great location. You really don’t need to use your car if you don’t want to. You feel away from everywhere, but actually you can be in Port St Mary or Port Erin in 20/30 minutes walk.

This was family of 4 adults and a large dog. The property was as described, it was lovely and clean and freshly upgraded with a welcome pack of milk, bread, butter and bicuits. The garden was enclosed and easily accessible immediately around the house. There was a wilder area further down the garden which our dog enjoyed. The kitchen was fully equipped to enable you to be self sufficient. We enjoyed trying out the variety of restaurants. There was access to various walks from the cottage which take you up hills, down to a rocky bay or across fields. We would definately recommend this property to our friends who are looking for a quiet base.

Lovely House Lovely Location. House has everything Highly recommend High spec fixtures and fittings Many thanks Eugene
