The Hawthorns was perfect for us. The kids loved it. It was clean, cosy and has amazing views. Having the gym and sauna was incredible too. David the owner could not have been kinder or more helpful to us during our stay (even helping is change our car tyre). A great location on the island for exploring everything.

A stunning barn conversion in tranquil surroundings The accommodation was spacious and comfortable The location was in pretty countryside The owners were on site and extremely friendly and helpful

We were a group of 6 girls celebrating a big birthday over a bank holiday weekend and so came loaded with lots of lovely food and drinks. Having been out for a meal in Peel the location was perfect. The kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms were all comfortable and well equipped (although we did lack a spatula). On the Sunday we booked a two hour private session in the spa, however, sadly the jacuzzi was unusable due to the high levels of chlorine. Our eyes were stinging and streaming so we could not bear more than 5 minutes sat in it. There also seemed to be a fake tan scum and some unidentifiable floaty bits. We did make use of the sauna and steam room but were still feeling the sting from the jacuzzi experience. We were also a little peturbed by the notice in the living room warning that the door at the end adjoins with a bedroom next door where we were told a new baby was staying. However, we moved our celebrations to the kitchen and hope that we did not cause any disturbance to the other visitors. We did have a wonderful weekend though overall.

We stayed at the Hawthorns for 4 nights over Easter. We had no problem finding it and arrival procedures were straight forward. The property has 3 good sized bedrooms, two bathrooms plus a separate toilet and a good sized lounge and kitchen.The situation was beautiful and an added bonus was the Spa & gym including hot tub, sauna and steam room - all straight forward to operate. The only downside really is the lack of taxis around Peel however we did find one guy who was very helpful. Otherwise someone needs to drive if you want to go out for the night. The owners were very friendly and helpful and we would definitely return

The property is fantastic, I would just recommend that Island Escapes are better at communicating when questions are asked through the booking process.

Great location, helpful host, fabulous property. What more can I say? Hot tub and sauna made it extra special.

Excellent stay again. The only negatives are no option of baby gates and the tv could do with an update. But fantastic to stay again.

As I said in the form I filled in before leaving, we find Ballacallin Court an excellent base with good facilities. Please stop asking for more reviews as it's spoiling the experience.
