Keys Cottage - a holiday cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

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.
