Beautiful self catering house. lovely gardens the house was really big. Port erin was lovely. Everything you needed and more for self catering It was beautiful start to finish
The house was perfect, had everything we needed to make our stay a perfect experience. Thank you all
Our extended family had a wonderful stay in this lovely, spacious, comfortable home. We enjoyed family meals around the big table in the well equipped kitchen diner and everyone slept well in the comfortable beds. The bathrooms were beautifully clean and modern. It was a great location for the south of the island with good transport links.The weather was great too and a BBQ would be a welcome addition!
We were celebrating a big birthday. It was lovely to be all together in one lovely house, as we all live in different parts of the country. As children our family went to the Isle of Man every year, travelling on the ferry from Fleetwood. We were recreating old black and white photos, but with newer family members. Very fond memories of family who are no longer with us. It was superb weather. The house was wonderful and met our needs completely, plenty of room and facilities.
Had a great time at Brookville house. Went to the beach at port Erin an swam twice, went on the steam train to Douglas and back, went to ramsay by tram. All this by bus as the stop is just outside the house. Hope to come back some time.
Brookville was an excellent choice for us as we celebrated a 70th birthday with a wide age range of guests.The location was "spot on" for the family as we climbed local hills, visited beaches, and made use of the various forms of transport available nearby. The house felt like a home from home.We were blessed with lovely weather all week which meant we were able to play various sports in the garden which was very safe for young children.
Brookville House was the perfect choice for a family gathering in the area where our ancestors came from. Spacious, well furnished and lovely well equipped kitchen it was home from home. The bedrooms were comfortable with stylish, modern bathrooms. Island Escapes dealt with the booking very professionally. Great location for visiting places on the island.One room overlooked the main road and was a bit noisy in the early morning but that was the only small negative.
This was such a lovely place to spend a week on the island. From fist arrival the house impressed, spotlessly clean, large well furnished rooms and a wonderful kitchen and dining area overlooking the garden. The granddaughters were particularly taken by the cows in the field at the bottom of the garden. The house is on a bus route with two buses per hour and there's a very good dining pub in Colby about 15-20 minutes walk away (or a few minutes on the bus).We'd all love to stay there again and as we left the youngest granddaughter was chanting "this is a lovely house" over and over again. A rare unconditional recommendation!
What a lovely house this is for a large family get together, With loads of space so you never feel as if your on top of each other. The garden and seating area is also perfect for that outside meal weather permitted with lovely views. The location of the property is ideal also on the southside of the island, With a lovely pub that serves food just a 15min stroll up the road so you don't have to drive if you fancy a drink..It also has a spar shop next to the pub..I would definitely recommend this house and will be sure to book it again next time we are over as a family group.
Brookville House is a great place to relax, inside and out, it has spacious rooms and can accommadate a large family.It is close to all amenities and an ideal base from which to explore the Island.
The house has all been renovated to a very high standard, the kitchen is really well equipped and theres plenty of space for children to safely run about. Its only a few minutes from Castletown and Port Erin. We had a lovely three generation family holiday.
Perfect location, very nice property with everything you need to have a fantastic stay.Well recommended.
