Thie Spooyt is a large family holiday home enjoying magnificent views.

Thie Spooyt is a refurbished and extended Manx cottage offering spacious holiday accommodation for up to six people, ideal for a family or group of friends.

Finished to a high standard throughout, the cottage features a large kitchen and conservatory / living area which makes for a great socialising space complete with log burner for those chilly evenings. The kitchen has a Rangemaster oven and hob, large American style fridge freezer and breakfast bar. Moving through the house to the dining room, a large light open space with floor to high ceiling windows before reaching the main living room with a further log burner, comfortable seating for six and a large window for enjoying panoramic views to the north of the island and south west Scotland. Look out for wildlife or identify passing ships using the telescope set up for guests to enjoy! A large flatscreen smart TV provides entertainment for nights in.

The first floor features a master bedroom enjoying the same panoramic views as from the lounge, complete with en-suite bathroom. Two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom are contained within the original cottage, together with a small study complete with desk and chair.

Relax in the garden which provides a lovely suntrap, often sheltered from the elements, make use of the BBQ facilities, or enjoy sitting round the outdoor fire pit. The cottage is located in a great position for stargazing due to the low light pollution in the area, indeed the Isle of Man has 26 official dark sky stargazing locations dotted around the island in recognition of our dark skies.

The cottage is located a short distance from the Manx Electric Railway, watch the trams rumble past several times a day, and for a trip north to Ramsey or south to Laxey hop on at either Dreemskerry or Lewaigue tram stops which are 5 minutes walk from the cottage in either direction. The harbour town of Ramsey is little more than 5 minutes drive from the cottage. Close by you'll also find The Venture Centre, an outdoor activity centre offering many activities including kayaking, archery and coasteering.

Best VRBO we’ve stayed at
The cottage is gorgeous inside and out with amazing views from all of the many windows. Fields and sea for miles. Fully updated with everything you could need. We’ll definitely stay here every time we visit the IOM.
