We really enjoyed our stay at Dove Cottage in Castle Town. It was a perfect fit for me, my husband and 9 year old son. Really convenient as so close to the airport. It was very clean and has lovely decor. The Cottage is on Golden Meadow Mill property the views are lovely and the owners were very friendly and accomadating. I would highly recommend this cottage for couples and small families when visiting the Isle of Man.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in dove cottage. Everything about the accommodation, area, was first class. Especially the little hens which we enjoyed watching. A lovely touch from Island Escapes was a welcoming pack. Shame about the weather but nothing could be done about that!We would definitely stay here again.
Our weekend away at Dove Cottage was nothing other than excellent. From the perfect location with a short drive from the airport to every amenity that you could possibly need in the property. The cottage was very clean and provided everything we needed as a base to explore the island and within a short walking distance to shops and brilliant pubs for food and drink. A lovely touch was the log burner for a cosy evening on the sofa. We will definitely be back in the future to explore more of the island.
