Welcome to the Isle of Man
Ramsey
'Royal' Ramsey is the second largest town in the Island, set on the coast with a magnificent backdrop of the North Barrule hills. The town has a long promenade, a busy working harbour and a wealth of small specialist shops - perfect for tracking down that special holiday gift. Ramsey also has the Mooragh Park, the 'heart' of the town - 40 acres of gardens and a fine boating lake with a lakeside cafeteria.
Reaching Ramsey is a pleasure in itself. From Douglas you can take the Manx Electric Railway, via Laxey, passing through stunning countryside, or drive the famous T.T. mountain road which offers some splendid mountain views.
Along with a wide range of shops selling everything from exotic cheeses to couture dresses, a market is held in Ramsey on Saturdays during the summer. The Grove Rural Life Museum offers a glimpse of life as it was many years ago, while Ramsey Golf Club, with its immaculately maintained fairways, offers a challenge to all golfers.
